DJD-406.3.-David-5 Dunham

::Children of David-5 Dunham and Tabitha Cooley: first four on Brimfield VR 50-51

:::: i. Eleanor-6 Dunham b. 11 June 1770
:::: ii. Johnson-6 Dunham b. 20 Oct. 1771
:::: iii. Nathaniel-6 Dunham b. 28 Nov. 1773
:::: iv. David-6 Dunham b. 3 Dec. 1775
:::: v. Lucy-6 Dunham prob. b. 1763 Brimfield Ma.
:::: vi. Aaron-6 Dunham not on Brimfield VR (a desc. gives about 1784-5)
::::::(this may be the Aaron L Dunham, single male who d. Springfield, 13 Feb. 1846, age 60 yrs.; cause Erysipelas)
:::: vii. Naomi-6 Dunham not on Brimfield VR
:::: viii. Tabitha-6 Dunham birth not on Brimfield VR
:::: ix. Darius-6 Dunham b. 4 June, 1790 Brimfield, Ma. but not on Brimfield VR Family search.org gives m. 18 Sept. 1814 Polly Curtis
:::: x. Silas-6 Dunham b. perhaps after 1794 when the family left Brimfield

::According to the "Hance and Allied Families" History, "after the Dunham family moved to
(Paris, Oneida County) New York State (in 1794), Johnson Dunham took his younger brother
Silas and removed to New Jersey. In 1803, Johnson was given 'an appointment' at Flanders
Church (near Budd Lake in New Jersey). He later moved to Asbury, Warren Co., NJ, where he
was a Methodist Pastor. He and his brother Silas opened a store in Asbury, which also had the Post Office."

We can see that Darius Dunham (b. in 1762) was not a son of either Micajah 4 or David 5 and
Tabitha (Cooley) Dunham, but the fact that David 5 had a son Darius b. in 1790), and the fact
that David 5 had a son (Johnson 6) who was a Methodist pastor, are strong clues which indi
cate that Darius (b. in 1762) was closely related to this family. Thus, I place Darius 5 Dun
ham, the man who was a Methodist pastor at the Hay Bay church in the Bay of Quinte, as a
son of David 4 and Esther (possibly Richardson) Dunham. His line back to Deacon John
Dunham would be Darius 5 Dunham b. 1762, David 4 and Esther (possibly Richardson) Dun
ham, Micajah 3 Joseph 2 John 1 Dunham.

Darius 5 Dunham was born about March 1762; died 13 September 1825 in Fredericksburg,
and is buried at Switzer’s Chapel at Switzerville, Ontario, Canada. He married about 1792
Elizabeth Detlor. She died near Napanee at the home of her son Enoch Fletcher Dunham on
March 1, 1848. She is buried in the Riverside Cemetery at Napanee.
