Family of Laban VEAZIE and Lucy (w of Laban) VEAZIE

Laban VEAZIE b. 1812 May 19103 at Corinna, ME103. d. 1877 Dec 245273 at Elmira, New York5273. bd. Elmwood Cemetery, Caton, NY201.
Lucy (w of Laban) VEAZIE b. 1813 Sep 28~201 at Maine78. d. 25 Mar 1872201 at Elmira, NY379. bd. Elmwood Cemetery, Caton, NY201.

Married2317 1836 Mar 72317 at Hope, Knox Co., ME2317.

The transcribed marriage record2317 has Lucy's name as "Keazie." That may be a mistranscription of "Veazie," or an indication of her maiden name.

Laban spent his life farming, perhaps successfully, as he is a "Retired Farmer" in 1870 at age 57, and the Elmira death records list his occupation as "speculator."\tab

Laban's birth record103 provides his birthdate. His death and age at death379 are listed as Dec 24, 1877, and 66y 7m 5d, indicating a birth date of May 19, 1811. The birth record data is preferred.

Laban's death notice5273 (Dec 27, 1877) reads: "Laban Veazie, formerly a resident of Caton, died in Elmira, Dec. 24, aged sixty-six years."

The death records379 for Elmira, NY, record Lucy's parents as Abja? And Grace, last name illegible or not given. Lucy's age at death is listed as 58y 5m 26d. Her birthdate is calculated from that age and her death date.

Child 4. Clara

Clara's headstone in Caton is very weathered (2001) and the death date is unclear. Hillman800 provides a reference to "Death Notices from Steuben County, New York, Newspapers," Jackson and Jackson, p 254: "Veazie, Clara E., ae 13y, 6m, 17d, daughter of Laban and Lucy in Caton," Corning Journal, 9 July 1861. If the newspaper date is assumed for her death date, her calculated birth date matches exactly the vital records325 of Mt Vernon, Maine.
