    • Clara died in Sep of 1873 and Annie was born in Sep of 1874, I'm guessing he and Barbara were married between September and February - if they actually married. Cliff didn't find a marriage record for either of them.

  • Notes 
    • The only information I have on Barbara is from the 1875 State Census and the 1880 Federal Census.

      Barbara almost certainly had Huntington's Disease and passed it to son, Fred. Fred passed it to his sons Cecil and James and daughter Naomi. Those people passed it to their children and the list goes on.

      I went to Batavia yesterday, in search of some Records for Frederick and Barbara Senn. I went to four separate buildings and hit on two documents for them. One was the "Record of Aliens and Naturalization of Aliens - Vol. 1 Thru Vol.6" listing Sann, Frederick RA 1865 Prussia - V3, Pg. 622. This document is dated 26 Oct. 1865, at the Genesee County Court of Sessions, City of Batavia, State of New York, and it has Frederick's broken signature written as Frederick Sann. It states that [he] "has resided in the United States for more than five years last past, and that for at least three years before he arrived at the age of twenty-one years, he had so resided within the United States." ... Sworn oaths were taken, by Godfrey Lake and Gideon Hawkins, testifying as to his upstanding character. It is interesting to note, that the Litt sisters were housekeepers for Godfrey Lake, and that Frederick was married to Clara Litt in 1861. Frederick had also owned the adjoining property next to the John Litt family on Lake Road, until he'd later bought the larger nearby farm acreage on Cohocton Road in the Town of Pembroke. I also found the Land Record of when he sold that farm property, which was signed by Frederick Senn and "Barbary" Senn, his wife. It seems that she made her Mark (X) and they had filled in her written name as both Barbery (above) & Barbary (signed). ... It was recorded on the 5th day of December, 1885. It was sold to Henry P. Porter, the former owner of a general store in Corfu.
