Church record :
If we only had the first Clerk's book of the Hopewell Pres.
Church, that would have
told us more of all these very early pioneer families. I believe that
Joel Hart was
its first Clerk. The Hart family then lived on Sect. 47, the first
house west of the
Jo Birdseye home, south side of road. Then it became the Clinton
Watkins farm
and much later the Jason Gates place, now Zimmerman. Capt. John Hart
served
in the Revolutionary War.

In 1859 Isaac Hart was living on the cross road west of the Zimmerman

on the Van Voren place. David S. Hart was in the Civil War. I think he
was a
grandson of Capt. John Hart. I think that Maria Hart was a dau. of
Richmond

The Kerskie family were an unusual one coming from Prussia in 1883, with their children. They were hard working folk, raising their large family, thou' some had died young. The first I remember of them was one day when we were coming home from Canandaigua, with a horse and buggy, we caught up with a young woman and a child along the foot of the lake. We stopped and asked them to ride. The woman was crying and very frightened. It seemed that she expected her husband to meet her train, but someway their plans had miscarried and no one was there. Her husband worked for Henry Pratt, so my mother knew where to take her.
Later the Kerskies moved to the house south of the old cemetery, and their daughter Frederika came to stay with us and help my mother. She was called Fritzie. I remember her as a shy, quiet girl but we all liked her. She must have been around 14 and her sister Jule was born while Fritzie was with us. I also knew John quite well and Ernest a very little, but the others I did not know at all. The oldest dau. Wilhemina, was away and the others were younger that I.
Then the family moved to the house on the west corner of the turnpike and the Cem. Rd. There the father and mother both died. The father took care of the Cem. for many summers as the Clerk's book shows.

Babcock lot 21); (2) C. Levalley and wife L., parents of Clarissa and
Susan. (3) Richard Levalley 1784-1813. Note, the names of their four
children : a son Era or Ere or Erie who lived in Medina; A son Ara and
a son Iri, who moved to Mich. and a dau. Oro. Now these were niece and
nephews of Hannah Levalley Babcock, but may not have been Richards
children, but another child of Holden Levalley.

The Nathaniel Lewis Family lived on Sect. 72 in the house which burned on the site of the Tom Moore home. One of their sons Nathaniel B. Lewis married Catherine Smith and their daughter Kate E. Lewis married Doc. Parker who lived across from the Mary Gates place where Bert Moore now lives. They had two children, Anna and Charles. Charles drew one of the Cemetery Maps which the Association has.
Another daughter of Nathaniel B. Lewis married Gates Smith and their children were Kate and Lewis, who married Carrie Couch (See Couch Records). John Lewis, brother of Nathaniel B. was grandfather or William Lewis now living (at time of this writing) on upper Main Street, Canandaigua.
Lewis Station was named from the early family.

David Lewis was an Englishman. They lived across from the Cemetery. John Greenough was a nephew and he married Hattie Glue. The Glue family lived on the west corner of the turnpike and the cemetery road, when I was a small girl. I remember the glue family, the Lewis family, also John Greenough. I do not think they were related to the Nathaniel Lewis family.
