General Notes: Husband - Nathaniel Sill

---

He born in Lyme, Connecticut, and in 1807 removed to Black Rock, near Buffalo, New York, where he engaged in the business of a forwarding merchant, and was the senior member of the prominent firm of Sill, Thompson & Co. At one time they owned every vessel on Lake Erie except two small schooners. His partner, Sheldon Thompson, was the first mayor of Buffalo. They owned the famous Michigan, which went over the Niagara Falls. Mr. Sill's house, which was built of stone and was one of the best houses in the State west of Albany in its day, was battered down by the British in the War of 1812. Nathaniel Sill removed to Pleasant township, Warren County, Pennsylvania, in 1826. He came to the farm later owned and occupied by his son and namesake, in December of that year, having made the journey from Buffalo by team by way of Dunkirk and Jamestown.
