• Notes

  That Catherine Rose was Joseph Terry's wife was tenuously arrived at in the follow manner: -- An 1805 deed of sale to Richard Corwin of a farm in Brookhaven Hamlet, NY indicating that the northern boundary of the parcel was the former Parsonage Lands owned by Joseph Terry, deceased. -- The Terry genealogy at http://longislandsurnames.com indicates that Joseph Terry's wife's surname was Rose, no first name. -- An article in the Patchogue Advance, 4 April 1946 indicates that Robert Ellison purchased the Parsonage Lands in 1805 from a "group of persons evidently representing the South Haven Presbyterian Church." This assumption was in error as the church would not have owned the property in 1805; instead they were likely Joseph Terry's heirs. They were : "Catherine Terry, Elisabeth Corbet, Julianer Rose, Barnabas Rider and his wife Desire Rider." -- Catherine Terry, being first listed, was likely Joseph Terry's widow. The longislandsurnames.com genealogy does not indicate that Joseph had a daughter Catherine, but does record daughters Elizabeth, Julia, and Desire still living in 1805. Since the note above was first posted, two family trees at Ancestry.com indicate that Catherine Rose was Joseph Terry's wife.
