[12, 13, 14, 15, 16] - Seversmith p.1,248 #368 "m. about 1773 to Keziah Teed, b. ca 1792, dau of a Samuel Teed"
William Leon Halstead, author of "The Story of the Halsteads Of the United States" tells us on page 65: "Timothy Halstead [1752-1832?], son of James [1726-1786?], married about 1773 Keziah Teed and had six or seven children:..." and he continues listing five of the children and their birth years.
Ken Erd e-mail 3 Aug 2000 "One of the major sticking points is the parents and wife of Timothy 1752. His father married his mother, who is unknown, in 1751, and then married again to Elizabeth Teed in 1763. Timothy's wife, Keziah Teed, has been assumed in the past to have been his step-mother's sister, but she may have been a step-cousin if Elizabeth had a previous marriage with children."
From Marriage Records of the Schenectady Reformed Church 1694-1852 (Schenectady,
N.Y.), Arthur C. M. Kelly, ed.:
Among marriage registrations for 1785 are three marriages which have no dates attached, but fall between a marriage on 26 Apr 1785 and 27 May 1785. One of those three marriages is:
(no banns or Amos Halsted (no witnesses of Clifton Park
wedding. dates) Martha Shepherd named) of Clifton Park
From the section of the transcribed ledger for 1790:
banns Feb. 24 John Teerpenning Jr. (no witnesses of Clifton Park
marr. Mar. 4 Julianna Halsted named) of Clifton Park
These are the only two marriage entries indexed for "Halstead, Halsted, etc."
There were no entries for the surname Teed in the index.
Even though no other Halsteads appeared in the index, I read through all of the marriages between 1750 and 1765 in this book, in hopes of finding one of the mysterious Halstead/ Teed weddings. No luck!
