430. Solomon⁷ EMPIE <See pg. 80> (Petrus⁶, Anna⁵, Johann⁴, Johann³, Johann², Hanss¹) was born 21 Apr 1810 in Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY, USA. He was the son of Petrus E. EMPIE and Catherine Mary LEHMAN. Solomon died 10 Jul 1861 in Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY, USA, and was buried 13 Jul 1861 in Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY, USA.

NOTES for Solomon:

BIRTH: Date of birth computed by Personal Ancestral File genealogy program from date of death on tombstone.

MARRIAGE: Reformed Church, T-Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY USA.

BURIAL: People's Cemetery, located on Route 10 near Beekman's Corners, T-Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY USA, per People's Cemetery records.

TOMBSTONE: Died July 10, 1861, Ae 51y 2m 19d.

NOTE: It was difficult to determine Solomon's parentage. After due deliberation and considering his age it was decided to place him in the family of Petrus E. Empie, 2nd child. (Barbara Empie Greene and Herman Witthoft think this is correct.)

(BEG - 1 June 1998) I think we should note the fact that "this Solomon could be the son of Solomon, now listed as a "probable son of Johannes and Anna Maria Kilts." Since the placement is very tenuous, however, for now we are leaving young Solomon, b 1810, in Peter's family - subject to further change.

NOTES for John:

REAL ESTATE: According to legal documents on file, John apparently leased his farm on May 10, 1882, with an option to buy to one Virgil Winne who brought a lawsuit against the executors after John died to insure transfer of title upon completion of payments under the contract. This document refers to his farm of 135 acres in the town of Seward, Schoharie Co., NY, occupied by Mr. Winne who wanted to complete the contract and receive the deed as of April 1, 1891. This document also says that "on or about the 25th day of June, 1885, the said John P. Empie departed this life leaving a last will and testament dated January 20, 1885." (Thomas W.

OBITUARY: COBLESKILL INDEX, date unknown:

BENJAMIN EMPIE

An honored and an aged resident of the Sharon Road, Town of Seward, departed this life Oct. 7, ripe in years and generally honored and respected.

The funeral services were held in the Gardnersville Lutheran church, Rev. Weaver officiating. (Pastor A. H. Weaver was Pastor, 1897-1901.) Deceased, who was 91 years of age, is survived by four children--Mary Frederick, his wife, having departed eleven years ago--Charlotte, relict of Peter H. Frederick, late of Middleburgh, deceased; Reuben L. Empie of Seward, Peter L. Empie of the State of Maryland, and Squire George Empie of the old homestead.

Benj. Empie was a worthy descendant of sturdy stock. His father, Adam Empie, who with his brothers John, Peter and Solomon, came from Stone Arabia and purchased a large tract of land in the town of Sharon. Adam, by precept and example, showed his son Benjamin the proper way to go, and the lessons were not unheeded nor unimproved. Soon after marriage, and in the year 1846, deceased purchased the Major Bellinger place and proceeded to establish a home. There his children were born, and there he demonstrated good citizenship and good farming; there he lived, and there he closed his eyes forever on the scenes of earth. He was a man of vigorous intellect, and with this went an honesty of purpose and a fairness of dealing which brought to him the confidence and respect of all people. He was a member of the Lutheran church, in which, in his early years, he held office acceptably. He was considerate of the need and rights of others. No person ahunger was turned from his door empty handed. In politics he was a Democrat, staunch and true. He held political town offices, but he cared not about politics for this purpose. He believed in the principle of Democracy, and fearlessly and ably represented the same.

But few of the companions of youth are left to drop a tear over the departure of the aged, but relatives and friends know of his worth and his virtues, and the record was long ago made by his works--an honest man has departed.

He married Maria FREDERICKS about 1834 in NY, USA. She was born 6 Dec 1812 in Seward, Schoharie Co., NY, USA, and was christened 3 Jan 1813 in Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY, USA. She was the daughter of Peter H. FREDERICK and Nelge (Cornelia) LOUCKS. Maria died 4 Mar 1889 in Seward, Schoharie Co., NY, USA, and was buried 7 Mar 1889 in Sharon, Schoharie Co., NY, USA.

DEATH NOTICE: From a newspaper account found at the Canajoharie Library and Art Gallery, 2 Erie Blvd., Canajoharie, NY 13317, Tel: (518) 673-2314: It gave very few family details: Julia A. Kilts, died 22 May 1889 at Sharon, 61st year of age; wife of John A. Lipe. Funeral at her residence, 25 May 1889, Rev. E. Miller officiating.

NOTES for John:

NOTE: Born and baptized in Stone Arabia, T-Palatine, Montgomery Co., NY USA. Could not find a record of it in either Trinity Lutheran or the Reformed churchbook. (HWW)

BURIAL: On family plot on original De Wandler farm.

NOTE: From HISTORY OF SCHOHARIE COUNTY, NEW YORK, 1713-1882, William E. Roscoe, p. xxiii, Town of Sharon: Lipe, John, p o Seward, farmer, 125 acres, born in Montgomery County April 6, 1829, settled on present farm March 1, 1868; wife Julia Kilts, of Palatine, married June 14, 1853, children six. Father, John A. Lipe.

NOTE: This is an estimate as to the placement of John A. in this family. I could find references that his father was John A., but I never found an instance where his mother's name is given. So I've temporarily placed him in this family as there is a seven year gap in the births of children and he would fit right in. Hopefully some genealogist can help on this placement. (HWW)
