Hi Melissa:
At your web page here:
http://www.my-ged.com/db/page/ward/20113
*(The page has a new designation since I updated, please just
search for Sexton on my page)*
You have William Hallock / Sarah Sexton, no dates or vitals. Looks like you're coming from the Sexton side. You have nothing on William.
I have the Hallock genealogy, first published 1866 by Rev. William Hallock, updated 1906 by Charles Hallock, 1928 by Lucius H. Hallock, which gives the ancestors of William Hallock and descendants of this couple. They had 11 children. Even though the Hallock genealogy has Saxton, not Sexton, and calls her sister Harriet, that you call Hannah, I know it's the same folks because you have your Hannah married to Zephaniah Platt, who is mentioned in the Hallock genealogy:
"whose sons surveyed and settled Plattsburg, New York."
I don't know if this is just an in-law line to you, or collateral, or direct. But, if you want all their data, it might be best to get the LDS microfilm of the book (I've not looked, I would hope they would have it.) As, there would be a lot to give.. too much to type.
In the meantime, I can tell you this: Sarah was of Huntington, Long Island. She was born 1723 and died 1806. They married about 1748 and had 11 children. William was a Revolutionary war veteran. He was in command of picket boats on the Sound during the Revolution, in which he suffered much from the British. His family was in Greenwich, CT,during most of the war.
William's ancestry comes from Peter Hallock, one of the group of original settlers of Long Island, New York, with Rev Young, in 1640.
I have my direct line of Hallocks at my web page and a bit on the family history of Hallocks at my home page. The History part, Peter's story, picture of the old Hallock homestead, etc. is here:
