More Church Records:
Caroline
Angel went to Ohio.
This
family of Angels lived on what was later the Kimble place, on the
cross-road,
Sect. 43. In studying these records, one might place Jenekes Angel as
the
pioneer father, who died in Hopewell. Caroline may have been his wife
and Jason
their son. Mrs. Mary Angel may have been Jason's wife. Hannah and
Benjamin may
have been man and wife but this is all guess work. Anyway the
family all went
to church and moved on to Ohio around 1838.

The Arnold place was on Sect. 47 across from the school house.
I think some of the family were still there when I was a small girl.
As
these records show, the first wife of Joy Cone Salisbury's father,
David W. Cane(Cude) was Kate Arnold. I dimly remember her.
She
died at the age of 36, in 1886,
James Cone Lot.
No 87.
William Pollok, the grandfather of Bob Pollok, and his wife who was a
sister of Jason's Gates wife Jennie Kipp, went there later to live, and
may have bought the farm of the Arnolds. I do not know where the
Arnolds went.
Babcock.
George Babcock and his wife, Sarah, must have
been among the very early
settlers in Hopewell. According to Mrs. Fred
Benham, the druggist's wife in
Canandaigua (she was Mary Babcock) the George Babcock home was on
Sect.
47 but across from the Cemetery. He may have built that house for it is old. Mrs. Benham was a great-grand
daughter of
George. She told me that
the farm extended across the road
originally and that George Babcock gave the
land for the church and the burying
ground.
He was known as Deacon George.
They came to Ont. Co. from Stonington, Conn.
and some, if not all, of
their children were born there. At least, Lemuel who appears to have
been
the eldest 1772-1830 was born in Stonington. His wife was Lucy Ann
Sawyer of Partridgeville, N.Y. and they lived at one time on what was
later the Gardner farm,
across from the Birdseye place, on the west.
Nancy Birdseye, dau. of the pioneer Jos. Birdseye, married Lyman
Babcock, who may have been their son, for that was also their home
before they went to Ohio.
kept one of the toll gates there.
William Babcock, another son of Dea. George
and Sarah, went to live on
Sect 43, on the cross road which curves around to the Hopewell Center
Road and probably built the house there, the one on the south side of
the
road beyond the Gheen place. That family went to Michigan about 1836
and had 15 children. Three of these are buried in the old cemetery--Seymour,
Alonson and S--.
Oliver Babcock, another son
of
Dea. George, lived on this farm when
I was a small girl. His wife was Hannah Levalley, dau. of Holden
Lavalley.
Cem. Lot No. 31 was owned by Richard Levalley 1784-1813, a brother
of Hannah. Oliver had seven children, Pliny 1819-1858;
Chas. Thomas,
whose wife was Nancy Wier, the mother and father of Mary Babcock
(Mrs. Fred Benham). They lived on Chapin Street, and she came a few
times to our Cemetery Meetings before her death. Oliver's other children
were Emma, B-1837; Holden,1824-1825; Mary, 1826-1848; Harriet
1835-1850; Hannah
1832-1859. All but Chas. and Emma are buried in
the old Cemetery.
Susannah Babcock married Daniel Gates,Jr.
With his death she married
the 2nd time Dr. Torry 1778-1858. Susannah was B-1777.D-1856.
George Babcock, the youngest child of Deacon
Geo. Babcock, MMary
Gates, dau. of Capt. Daniel Gates, Green Co. N.Y.
