The sources I have found are listed on his profile. My relatives & I suspect that he may descend from the Rev Richard Denton http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Denton-127. The reason we suspect this is because his descendants  found trace to Kings & Nassau Counties on Long Island, NY. Hempstead, NY is central to many of these people. This is the same area where my Denton ancestors settled.

Even if there is no link, I would like any help finding his parents & any info on his wife Jane.

 

Thank you.

Thank you Frank

 

I have the 1850 & 1860 US Census & the 1855 NY Census, Death Record, Mortuary Notice & Find A Grave record. What I can't find is a record for his parents or the maiden name of his wife (marriage record, etc). However,  I really appreciate you taking the time to look.
