  • Notes 
    • Job Bisbee was the administrator of his father Jotham's estate.

      Jotham and Jotham Jr. brought action in Sessions Court, Hampshire County, versus Job and the Massachusetts Hospital Insurance Co.

      Job brought action versus Jotham et al. and Asahel brought action versus Job Bisbee.

      Job Bisbee and wife, Susan, were grantors of warranty deed in Ellicottsville, N. Y., Cattaraugus County, Little Valley, N. Y. on 23 Feb. 1861.

      The 1840 US Census for Ellicottsville, Cattaraugus County, lists Job Bisbee as head of family, 1 m. 5 < 10; 1 m. 10 < 15; 1 m. 40 < 50; 2 fem. < 5; 1 fem. 5 < 10; 1 fem. 10 < 15; and 1 fem. 30 < 40 yrs.

      The 1860 census lists: Job Bisbee, age 62, farmer: assessed tax, $1800 real estate, $100 personal property. Born in Mass. Susan Bisbee, age 59, housewife, born in Mass. Adelia Bisbee, age 19, teacher, born in New York. Ann Bisbee, age 17, Teacher, born in New York.

      The record of Job's children does not seem to be complete. Otis had left home before 1840 and some children were born and left home or died before 1860.

      As a matter of record for possible future use, the census figures of Cattaraugus County show the following Bisbees in the town of Ellicottsville in 1860: Hiram Bisbee, age 47, male, farmer, tax assessment, $3500 real estate, $1500 personal property. Born in New York. Lucretia Bisbee, age 45, female, housewife, born N. Y. Louisa Bisbee, age 25, female, housework, born N. Y. Anderson Bisbee, age 17, male, clerk, born N. Y. Harrison Bisbee, age 14, male, b. N. Y. Florence Bisbee, age 9, female, b. N. Y. Marcus Bisbee, age 6, male, b. N. Y.

      In the town of Mansfield, 1860: Alvin Bisbee, age 35, male, farmer, tax assessment, $50 personal property, b. Mass. Diana Bisbee, age 33, female, housewife, b. Mass. Louisa Bisbee, age 9, female, b. N. Y. Mary O., age 7, female, b. N. Y. Ellen, age 4, female, b. N. Y. Abby, age 2, female.

      In the town of Machias, 1860: William H. Bisbee, age 34, male, farmer, b. N. Y. Hannah Bisbey, age 33, female, b. N. Y. A. Cornelia Bisbey, age 12, female, b. N. Y. Mary F., age 10, female, b. N. Y. Frances, age 6, female, b. N. Y. Margaret, Age 1, female, b. N. Y.

      No Bisbees appear in the 1840 census and there seems to be no data available to place them. [4]
