Notes
a. Note:   Asaph Twichell was in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania by about 1825 as referenced in the following source: Stewart Pearce, ANNALS OF LUZERNE COUNTY, J.B. Lippincott & Co., Philadelphia, 1860. "Ransom Township was formed from parts of Exeter and Newton in 1849, and was named in honor of Captain Samuel Ransom, who commanded the second independent company of troops raised in Wyoming (county) in 1777, and who fell in the battle of July 3d, 1778.
 The Delaware Indians had a village on the Susquehanna, near the mouth of Gardner's Creek, called Assarughney. The first grist-mill, in the territory of Ransom, was erected on Gardner's Creek in 1825 by Philip Sherwood. About the same time Mr. Twitchel put up the first saw mill. The first church was built in 1845 by the Lutherans, under the direction of the Rev. John Lescher".
  Asaph's daughter, Nancy Matilda Twichell, was married to Edward Rozelle on February 26, 1824 at Milwaukee, Luzerne County, Pennsylvania so the family was apparently living there at that time.
