Notes
a. Note:   N16 (The following information is based on two documents, one from Roger E. Filley, Atascosa, Texas, and the other from Jane Philley Robertson, Unadilla, New York.) The Philley family, which has many descendants in Chenango County, New York, sprung from the early pioneers, Remembrance and Hannah Hubbard Philley, who came to this section from Winchester, Litchfield County, Connecticut. He was born in Torrington, Connecticut on June 15, 1753; he married Hannah Hubbard on December 28, 1783. Hannah, who was his second wife, was born August 28, 1764 and died June 19, 1860. [He married first, Anna Cyrena Gleason on Aug 20, 1774, and had two children by her, namely William and Arunah. Of Anna and these two children, nothing is known positively. They seemed to have perished in the early days of the Revolutionary War, perhaps in a fire. One genealogist says she divorced him. Remembrance and Hannah are buried in Union Cemetery at McDonough, Chenango Co., NY but were first interred in the Skillman Cemetery, a short distance below Remembrance's farm. One of his descendants, Clarence Philley of St. Joseph, Missouri, had them removed to the village cemetery. When they left Connecticut, they went to Sidney, New York, and a little later to Guilford, and finally to McDonough. Elijah, their son, was born in Sidney. Remembrance purchased land from the English Land Company. This was a tract of 100 acres, the purchase was in 1807. In 1818 he had six acres cleared and had built a log house. This farm is now occupied by Elwyn Purdy and is known as the David Purdy farm.It is located on the McDonough-Smithville state road, about 3 miles from McDonough village. Remembrance was a son of William and Abijah Millington Philley. Nine of their children were baptized at Windsor, Connecticut. Boyd's Annals of Winchester gives the spelling of the name as"Filley" which was not that used by Remembrance. From another note is the following comment: "The Filleys who remained in New York State, Chenango County and adjacent; have taken to spelling their name "Philley". Mrs. Graham (Florine) Purdy, granddaughter of Uriah Filley, lived on the old Remembrance Philley farm at McDonough, New York, Chenango County, which was owned earlier than 1828 by Remembrance Filley. Mrs. Gertrude-Daniels Moore said that "her records show that Hannah Hubbard Philley was a sister to Governor Hall's mother." Highland Hall was at one time governor of Vermont. His father's name was Nathaniel Hall. Mrs. Moore said "we have Governor Hall's picture in a small round frame, and I wish the children to always keep this picture."
  From Find a Grave: Remembrance Philley was the son of William Philley or Filley and Abiah Millington.
  Remembrance Philley married Hannah Hubbard 28 Dec 1783 in Winchester, Connecticut. They had eleven children: Charlotte Philley born 28 Feb 1787, Abigail Philley born 24 April 1789, Hannah Philley born 10 March 1790, Nancy Philley born 17 Feb 1793, Jeremiah Philley born 28 March 1795, Isaac Philley born 28 August 1797, Roxanna Philley born 28 March 1800, Nellie Philley born 18 Feb 1802, Uriah Philley born 29 May 1804, Elijah Philley born 6 Jan 1806 and Sarah "Sally" Philley born 10 Sep 1808.
  Charlotte Philley married Daniel Marble. Abigail Philley married David Perry and Joel Call. Hannah Philley married Peter Andress. Nancy Philley married Phillip Helms. Jeremiah Philley married Lucy Ann Morgan. Isaac Philley married Eliza Perkins. Roxanna Philley married Daniel Barnum. Nellie Philley married Henry Fitch. Uriah Philley married Eleanor Bliven.

  Remembrance and Hannah purchased 100 acres of land in McDonough from the English Land Company in 1807. By 1818 they had six acres of land cleared and a log house built. This land is located on the McDonough-Smithville state road, about 3 miles from McDonough.
