I am researching Frederick. I do not know anything of your Cornelius but I thought I would help you with some dates on Frederick. Fredericks first wife was Jennie Tanner they were married May 27, 1806 she died in 1824 shortly after Margarets birth. He then married Mary Poff in 1825. His daughter Margaret was born 3-5-1824 and died 12-25-1901. She first married Samual Bailey on March 17,1842. She than married Joseph Stone (my gggrandfather) 5-11-1827. They had 2 children Mary Alice, born 5-29-1863 and died 2-4-1899. They had a son, Thomas, born 9-27-1865 and died 10-24-1948. If you need any more names or dates to add to this please let me know, maybe I can help. Also, where did you find the information to make the connection on Margaret to Frederick and Frederick to William Henry. Please let me know. Thanks, Carol Tillman References
