My brick wall. Benjamin Odell b:1823 Cold Spring, Putnam Co., NY/ Louisa
Barton
I cannot find the ancestors of my Benjamin Odell although his wife Louisa
Barton, others have. I'm fairly sure he was born in Cold Spring, Putnam Co.
NY. So far, the Putnam Co. Historical Society has not been able to help
either. I am willing to pay the expenses of any residents of that area who
could find what I need.

Hello Rev.,

Do you have specific time frame? By that I mean what Census records have you
found already? You are seeking the Father and Mother names? Any suspicion as
to were the parents were born?

A quick search of Odell on http://www.heritagequest.com finds a whole lot of them in
New York State:
1790 Census Results: 53
1800 Census Results: 74
1810 Census Results: 92
1820 Census Results: 126
1860 Census Results: 540
1870 Census Results: 620
1880 Census Results: 2094
1900 Census Results: 828
1910 Census Results: 826
1920 Census Results: 884

Limiting it to Putnam County gives:
1860 Census Results: 35
1870 Census Results: 36
1880 Census Results: 90
1900 Census Results: 30
1910 Census Results: 24
1920 Census Results: 28

Adding Benjamin to the mix yields several hits:
1860 Census Results: 3
1870 Census Results: 3
1880 Census Results: 1
1900 Census Results: 1
1910 Census Results: 2

Of these one on 1860 Census is aged 37 and is in Cold Springs, Phillipstown,
Post office Fort Mahopac(sp?). That may be the one your are looking for.
Unfortunately, when I looked at the image I cannot find him!?!? I checked the
page before and three after.

It looks like he and family may be in Philipstown in the 1870 Census.

He is on lines 24-31. Possible son William on Lines 29-31. Also Wife's mother
is living with them.

He does not appear to be on the 1880 Census, atleast under the "correct"
spelling of his name. Do you know his DOD?

That is my Benjamin. I have studied earlier census records and have not

found a definitive clue. The Abijah mention is interesting. I suspect a
relationship.

The 1850 census is the first mention. They moved to NJ in the 1870's. He

died before 1900.
