Levi HALE	b.abt 1790
married: Anner DURKEE? or Annir _____?	parents: Not found yet, possibly "David Hale"?
children: HALE Levi (b.abt 1814) this Levi may be the nephew of the Levi of this page or an earlier born son. others currently unproven, possibly; Nelson (b.1817 d.1910) Emily M. (b.1821 - 1895) Loraine (b.~1834 NY) Colwell (b.~1839/41 NY)	siblings: HALE unknown
fact sources and writings about this individual: 1 In 1810 There were two Levi Hale's living in NY. One at Charlestown, Montgomery County, and another at Rutland, Jefferson County, NY. 1820 There was a Levi Hale living at; Census Rutland twsp, Jefferson County, NY, a second at Franklin, Delaware Co., NY, and a third at Gains, Genesee County, NY. The third one matches where our Daniel Levi Hale was born. 2Levi Hale's information from the Genealogical Death Indexing System - Michigan, shows: Levi Hale (the second, b.~1814 according to Census data) died 24-Apr-1883 in Eaton County, age 71, married, occupation; farmer, Ledger page 196, Record number 129, cause of death; consumption, occupation; farmer, father's name; Levi Hale, father's residence: New York. What leads me to Gaines, Orleans Co. NY?....The birth record of Daniel Levi Hale in 1841 says he was born in Orleans, NY.... I find no other Levi Hale's (b.1790) in New York the exact age except one living in Orleans Co. NY (circumstantial evidence, but very coincidental) 1829 The Orleans Advocate & Anti-Masonic Telegraph Newspaper, Wednesday, Jan 21, 1829 lists LEVI HALE as having mail waiting as of January 1, 1829 at the Gaines, Orleans County, New York Post Office. 3CENSUS data: 1840 Gaines, Orleans, NY CENSUS listed Levi Hale and 1M20-30, 1M50-60, 1F5-10, 2F15-20, 1F40-50. 1841 Daniel Levi Hale was born at Orleans County, NY. because Daniel Levi Hale is not listed in the 1850 or 1855 census, perhaps this LEVI is an uncle or cousin instead of grandfather. He was possibly born to another Hale in this county? 1850 Gaines, Orleans, NY CENSUS, Levi Hale, 60 b.VT, farmer, Anner 52, b.NY,.., Emily 25, Lorane 16, Colwell 11. 1855 Orleans County, NY STATE CENSUS, Levi Hale, 65, b.VT, farmer, Annir (or Anner), 57, wife b.Cayuga, NY,.. Emily 34, dau, b. Orleans, teacher,.. Loraine 20 dau, b.Orleans, teacher,... Colwell 13, son b.Orleans. Vermont birth record 7450115 Levi Hale b. 18 Feb 1790 at Windsor Twp., Windsor, Vermont, father: David Hale, mother: Olive the only problem with this fitting as our Levi Hale,..is the information found that this Levi listed in the Census data above, married Anner (or Annir/Annis) Durkee Feb 11, 1817. Their children were all from Gaines, Orleans, NY but our Levi b.abt 1814 was at least 3 years too old to fit this family.... unless he was a child of a previous marriage, or his date of birth is wrong.

HALES of Orleans, New York (that I know of)
Because, 1841 Daniel Levi Hale was born at Orleans County, NY. So, his parents were there at least in 1841. Daniel's father Levi's death record lists his father as Levi Hale of New York. That Levi would be Daniel's grandfather. This is either wrong, or the Levi Hale on this page who was married to Anner Durkee was his father. Death certificates can certainly be wrong because they are written by people who knew someone and are sometimes fragmented memories or guesses.
