Following from Guy Wood
The Palmer’s and the Wood’s lived on farms not far from each other in Centerville , NY . Both families came to NY from Vermont at about the same time. Humphrey came to NY from Vermont in about 1816 when he purchased land from the Holland Land Co. His brother William B. Palmer also came to Centerville from Vermont . Several of Humphrey’s and William’s children later moved to Day Township , Michigan . Humphrey’s wife, Sarah, also left Centerville in her old age and moved to be with her children in Day Township which is where she died on 26 Mar 1873. http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ny/county/allegany/CemeteryPages/Rogers%20Cemetery%20-%20Centerville/Rogers%20Cemetery-Centerville.htm
