Added notes from Eloise Haven. Many thanks to Eloise for this donation.

Orville W. Pease (Simeon, Noadiah, Isaac, Isaac, etc.) married Amanda Vrodenburgh, born 10/9/1833, born Sandisfield (Saundersfield), MA.

He had at least one daughter named Amelia. This daughter is mentioned in the letters of his brother Allen Dwayne Pease, written during the Civil War to his mother in Canandaigua.

According to Michigan Department of Community Health records, he died at Hudson, Lenawee County, MI on 17 Sep. 1885 of unknown cause. He was by occupation a tailor.

Simeon Pease (Noadiah, Isaac, Isaac, John) father of Sarah, Philena, Emeline,...Allen Dwayne, despite what The Pease Record states, actually died August 6, 1846, age 53 yrs., etc. You can look at his stone in the Pioneer Cemetery in Canandaigua to confirm this.

Allen Dwayne Pease married Ella Legard (LeGarde/LeGard) in 1861 and moved to Michigan that year. He joined the cavalry in 1862 and served in Co. B., 6th Michigan Cavalry.

Allen and Ella had 8 or 9 children; I'm not sure of Allen. All were born in Grand Rapids.
