• Notes

  No entry found in census index CD for 1840, but found Mary J. Counterman and Phebe R. Counterman in 1850 index in Newfield, Tompkins Co., NY: p. 309, 304 resp. There is a Richard Counterman, wife Nettie, and a David Cranmor in Parma Township, Jackson Co., Mi. in the 1870 census (p. 331R). Richard is 73 years old, b. NY; Nettie is 60, b. Oh.; Cranmor is 35, b. Oh. This Richard might be the one in this family because Richard's brother Samuel has a number of ties to the Cranmer family in Marion Co., Oh. Richard's nephew Samuel is in the same Parma township in 1870 (p. 340). A family tie between these two men might explain why the younger Samuel ended up in Michigan. There is also a John Counterman family on the prior page. From the age, it's possible or probable that he is Richard's son.
