Ira Cornelius "Cornelius", son of Gideon Hollister and Elizabeth Davis, was born 28 June 1790.[1] The original text has Cornelius born in Rome, Oneida, New York but that has been crossed out and "Fairfield, Connecticut" has been written in. Connecticut is the birth place given on the 1850 census.
From at least 1820 - 1840, Cornelius and his family lived in Rome, New York.[2][3][4]
In 1840 he was listed as a Trustee in the First Presbyterian church in Rome. [5]
Living with them was their granddaughter, Merticia [Melissa] Burrows, whose mother died in 1841. This Beloit Hollister family is proven to be the same Omro Hollister family as evidenced by Melissa Burrows living with the family and the following:
- Woodward, G. H. m. 10/9/50 Mary C. Hollister, youngest dau of C., Esq. formerly of Rome, NY, in Beloit, WI (9-10/24)[6]
In December 1857, Cornelius and Sarah moved from Beloit to Omro, Winnebago, Wisconsin.[7] Their son, Henry, and Henry's family had moved there a few months prior.
Cornelius died 28 June 1860 in Omro. His funeral was held at First Presbyterian Church and burial was in the Omro Cemetery.[7][8]
