 David G. FINNEMOREBorn 21 Apr 1828 at Launceston, Cornwall, England, died 1911 at Bur. East Koy, Wyoming Co. NY, 82 or 83 years, buried 1911 at East Koy, Wyoming Co, NY Probably born in Launceston, Cornwall. Found in the 1851 Devon Census, age 21, unmarried, working as farm labourer on the farm of Humphrey WICKETT in Holsworthy, Devon. Harriet was listed as Hariat GLIDDON, age 19, unmarried, working for William WICKETT in Dexbeer, Holsworthy, Devon. His name there is spelled FINAMORE. (Who knows what the spelling should be? Even census takers spelled it the way it sounded to them) This could have been the place where David and Harriet met. According to the 1905 New York Census, David immigrated to the US in 1861. James was the last child born before that. He was naturalized 17 Sep. 1868 ========================================================== (I found in the Irish listings the following, but don't think that they are related): David FINNEMORE, born in Killeigh, County Offaly (King's County in the early days), Ireland; married on 17 Nov 1819 to Jane ROTHERAM, daughter of James, who was deceased at the time of her marriage. All info is in the parish registers at Killeigh, Diocese of Kildare, King's County (Offaly), Ireland If this David FINNEMORE is the father of David G., he married Jane ROTHERAM, who was the daughter of James ROTHERAM, (who died 21 Sep 1816) all of Killeigh, Diocese of Kildare, King's County (Offaly). (Found at www.rotheram.net@freeuk.com Is this something to be pursued? I found no more on 3 Aug, 2001. The dates are consistent with the birth of our David. c). Jane apparently had a sister, Anne, who was married 13 Feb 1819 in Killeigh, to Wilbert FINAMORE. Another sister, Bridget ROTHERAM was born in Craig, County Offaly, Ireland, and married 03 Jan 1818 to Fawcel GRAY. No birth dates given for any of the ROTHERAM family. When was the potato famine? That could account for the family turning up in England in 1828. Just a thought!) These two paragraphs are not yet connected to our family.) == Married at England to:  Harriet GLIDDON, daughter of Thomas GLYDDON and Elizabeth HONEY.Born 25 Apr 1831 at Pancrasweek, Devon, England, died May 1899 at Bur.

Horton Wakefield FINNEMOREBorn 18 Jul 1872 at Catt Co, NY, died 4 May 1956 at Hornell, NY, 83 years, buried 1956 at Mt. Hope Cemetery, Troupsburg, NY I had recorded that he and Uncle John were born in 1875; however, the FINNEMORE FAMILY record states that they were born in 1872. The family record from Faith (Doug) says that he died in 1960. Another family record gives his death date as 4 May 1956. 2003--record from Faith now gives his death date as 04 May, 1956, as I previously had. Her record also shows that he and Ida were married in Cuba, NY. (I had previously listed Harrison Valley, PA as the place) 12. John Norman FINNEMOREBorn 18 Jul 1872 at Catt.
