    Note: Peletiah recorded the births of his New York born children in Vermont after moving there late in 1800. As a result, the Vermont Vital Records list Asa as born in Underhill, Vermont. However, he appears as a member of the Peletiah Liscom family in the 1800 Census for Washington County, New York, consistent with his father's statement that he was born in New York.
