| Daniel Jerome BELDEN 1 |
Taylor, family #64 Taylor, family #98 Another source has Jerome's line as: James BELDEN b. 1751 (and from here back, agreeing with the line shown here) Eli BELDEN Daniel BELDEN b. 1794 Jerome BELDEN b. 1824 The name Eli BELDEN was supplied by Jane BELDEN VAN WORMER around 1945 - at the age of about 101. However, there clearly was a Jerome BELDEN in South New Berlin who had siblings too old to be children of a man born in 1794 (and his signature matches that of this Jerome); and if Jerome's father was born much before 1794, then Jerome's grandfather would have had to be too old to be a son of a man born in 1751 (biologically possible but extremely unlikely). Also, other sources show no son of James named Eli. So this line seems too problematic to be taken seriously. 1824. Age 35, N.Y., in 1850. Age 30, Chenango, in 1855. Age 43, NY, in 1860. Age 64, NY, in 1880. New York. U.S. 25 Dec 1816, S New Berlin. Age 83 years 10 month N/A days at death on 10/14/1899 (implying birthdate ca.
