  • Notes 
    • Among the witnesses to his baptism was Jacque Parcot. His great-great grandfather Pierre Gendron (d. 1717 in New Rochelle) was probably a brother-in-law of Pierre Parcot, the original Huguenot Parcot immigrant to Westchester; it seems likely that association with the Parcot family persisted down several generations.

      "Samuel Oliver served in the Delaware line as a private during the Revolutionary War. He was placed on the U.S. pension roll Mar 22, 1819 to receive from Sept. 7, 1818 $96 per year. He had received $71.20 at his death, June 3, 1819. He married Lydia ——. They had 8 sons and 1 daughter. They lived in Lewis Co., Virginia where he owned property. This property he and his wife sold to Abraham Casper in 1818." [Account of the Gallaudet Family, citation details below]
