      children were
      born, then to Salem, CT, but then moved to Springfield, Otsego

      They were later of Livingston county, NY, but we have been unable
      to obtain
      death dates for either Bond or Sarah. Death of Bond reported after
      1800,
      age: 44? (Addenda): from a quit-claim deed dated 27 Jan 1810,
        it states
        that Bond was deceasd at that time; this quit-claim lists his
        children, as
        listed, but adds one more daughter, Polly 6 Bigelow,
        to children
        listed; all his children lived in Avon, Ontario co, NY at that
        time. This
        quit-claim deed in Bigelow Society Library.
