Henry WATERBURY

1780 - Abt 1877  (97 years)

• Name	Henry WATERBURY  [2]
  	Henry Waterbury was born say 1780, probably in Stamford, Connecticut. He is said to have died in Eagleville, Ashtabula County, Ohio, about 1877, although no death record or gravestone inscription has been found. He married, probably between 1810 and 1815, Phebe (?) born in Connecticut about 1792 or 1793. According to a statement by her son Henry W. Waterbury, she died in Kingsville, Ohio 1884. However, there is also a death record for widow Phebe Waterbury who died 12 June 1880 in Kingsville, age 88, which is more likely correct as it would agree with her age as given in the 1850 census (57) and the 1870 (88,;sic, presumably should be 78). A Gravestone in the Center Cemetery in Austinburg, Ashtabula County, for Phebe Waterbury, "age 72," with no date of death, has not been explained. Henry Waterbury apparently moved from the Darien area to New York City some time before the 1820 census, when his household consisted of a male under 10 (unnamed oldest son?), a male 26-44 (Henry?) a female under 10 (unnamed oldest daughter?) a female 16-25 (unidentified?) and a female 26-44 (Phebe?). His son David was born in New York City 10 January 1821. From there the family moved back to Darien before the 1830 census. The family's census listing in Darien in 180 consists of a male under 5 (Henry William?), a male 5-9 (David?), a male 15-19 (unnamed oldest son?), a male 40-49 (Henry?), a female 5-9 (Mary?), and a female 30-39 (Phebe?). His family's migration to Austinburg, Ashtabula County, Ohio (with all children except for David, who remained in Darien), took place sometime between the dates of their son Augustus's birth about 1833 and the 1840 federal census. Henry's household in 1840 consisted of one male under 5 (Charles?), one male 5-9 (Augustus?), one male 10-14 (Henry William?), one male 50-59 (Henry?), one female 5-9 (Angeline?), and one female 40-49 (Phebe?). Children David and Mary apparently were not included in the household. Through his brothers Peter and Harvey, the family already owned land in Austinburg as early as 1818, and Harvey had been married there and lived there for a time in the 1820s. By 1850 Henry and Phebe were evidently living apart. Phebe Waterbury, age 57, born Connecticut, was living in the household of Augustin A. Smith in the 1850 census of Austinburg. Henry has not been found in the index to the 1850 census on Ancestry.com. In 1860 Henry Waterbury, age 80, born Connecticut, was living in the household of H. H. Austin (His son-on-law) in Austinburg. Phebe has not been found in the index to the 1860 census on Ancestry.com. In 1870 Phebe Waterbury, age 88 (sis.), born Connecticut, was living in the household of Henry Austin (her son-in-law) in Austinburg. Henry has not been found in the index to the 1870 census on Ancestry.com, and neither has been bound for 1880. Neither Henry nor Phebe Waterbury, nor anyone else named Waterbury had estates probated in Ashtabula County, Ohio. [1]
