I have been searching around trying to find some clues to who the parents are for Joseph L. Osborn, but with no luck. All I have on him is that he was born 1806 in New York. His wife was Amanda.
I did find them listed in the 1850 census in Middlefield, Otsego County, New York. NARA Roll 579 .. page 107 ... household 165. Joseph L. Osborn is 44 - born in new York. Amanda is 37 - born in New York. The children are: Damon, age 13 - born in New York; Chester S. is 10 - born in New York and Orville L. is 8 - born in New York.
I also have this family in the 1860 census in the town of Maryland, Otsego County, New York. Joseph apparently dies between 1860 and 1870 as Amanda is living with son Damon in the 1870 and 1880 census. Then she apparently has died before the 1900 census.
Do you by any chance have anything on the Joseph that I am looking for?
