1549. James Franklin SISSON-338 (Benoni , George , John , George , George , Richard ) was born on 4 May 1817 in Yates Co., New York. He died on 28 Dec 1896.

James Franklin Sisson was a farmer. He was, possibly, the James Sisson who married Jane Linn, who became the parents of Jane Ewing, born March 3, 1845. James was worth $1,000 in the Jerusalem, Yates County, NY 1850 census. Sources: The Sisson Newsletter, v. 5, no 2, page 2; Marriages, Penn Yan Methodist Church Yates County 1850 and 1865 censuses; Death Surrogate's Office, Penn Yan. From George Rogers to Joseph Sisson and David Sisson, in an e-mail message dated 22 Feb 1999: "The 1860 Census for the Town of Jerusalem, Yates Co., NY, lists on page 3 James Sisson age 45 and wife Jane age 40. With them is Luther age 20 and Myron age 9 as well as six other children (Harrison, Ruth, Franklin, Charles, Delos, and Hannah). The 1865 First Election District in the Town of Jerusalem lists on page 21 James age 50 and new wife Harriett age 48. Again Luther age 24 and Myron age 14 are listed as children as well as four others (Frank, Charles, Delos, and Hannah). Sarah Pierce age 19 also lived with them. I assume she was Harriett's child by her first marriage. On page 4 of the 1875 Second Election District of Potter, Yates Co., NY Census, Luther Sisson age 34 and wife Mary Jane age 28 are listed with four children. Also living with them is Myron Sisson age 25, brother of Luther. I believe these all to be the same family."

Here follow exerpts of the petition of "Harrison Sisson, of St Thomas, Canada, and Myron Sisson, of the Town of Jerusalem, in the County of Yates":
James Sisson, late of the town of Jerusalem, Yates Co., departed this life on or about the 28th of December, 1896. He left property valued at $1200 and real estate valued at $4000. His heirs at law, widow, next of kind, etc., included Elizabeth Sisson, widow, of Jerusalem, NY;
