Written about 1885
by Ira Ayer, I (1802-1889) about some of the more interesting and funny events
of his life. He was born in Haverhill, MA and when he was young his family
moved as far west as they could, Eire County, NY, near Buffalo. I've
transcribed the story for easy reading but have included the original drawings.
I've included three formats, HTML (normal webpage), PDF and a scan of each page.
Here are a collection of letters and documents that
pertain primarily to Ira Ayer II, his wife Jennie James and her family.
Most are from shortly before until shortly after the Civil War.
This is the story of three generations of the Ayer family starting with James Ayer, Sr. and Sarah Bradley with a little on their ancestors. It’s broken into three volumes, Volume 1 focusing primarily on the first two generations. Volume 2 focuses on the family of Ira Ayer, Jr. (3rd generation) and Volume 3 focuses on the rest of the 3rd generation and a section on the legacy of the family.
Among other things, Ira Ayer fought in the
Civil War. He was captain of his regiment. When he died the
James Ayer post of the GAR did a memorial to him. It includes a
history of Company A of the 116th Regiment of the New York Volunteer
Infantry. If anyone has a better copy of this I'd love to get a scan
of it.This site powered by The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding v. 13.0.1, written by Darrin Lythgoe © 2001-2024.
