Per the 1900 Census, he was born in October 1862. On the form, the 1862 was written over a crossed out 1867.

Per his Social Security application, he was born on July 25, 1883. Obviously, the year was very wrong.

The 1910 Census lists him as 41 years old, which would make his birth year approximately 1869.

The 1920 Census lists him as 55 years old, which would make his birth year approximately 1865.

According to his burial record and his death certificate, he was 85 years old in 1949, which would make his birth year approximately 1864.

-- MERGED NOTE ------------

Mr. R. R. Hilliard of Bowling Green made arrangements with the General Union Bell Co. to run their telephone line to Perrysburg on upon the agreement of providing at least 50 subscribers. By January of 1900, most of the work was well under way. Business phones paid $21 per year, residence $18. Miss Katie Waltz of Bowling Green took care of the exchange during the day and Miss Maud Croft did the extra hours. By April there were 60 subscribers. Soon after Miss Waltz resigned and then Miss Croft took over the day work. Miss Lulu Volk was the night operator. Toledo was a toll call. After three years it was necessary to install a second switchboard to handle the long distance calls. Miss Ruby LaFarree was the long distance operator, with Miss Amelia Pfiester as substitute. Robert Thronton [sic] took over the night exchange.
In 1904, the Maumee Valley Telephone Co. took over Mr. Hilliard's exchange. Officers of the new company were: Pres. J. Davis; Vice-Pres. A. C. Fuller; Treas. N. L. Hanson; Sec'y and Gen. Mgr. R. R. Hilliard. A year later, the Northern Ohio Telephone Co. took over the exchange at Perrysburg, Maumee and Waterville with W. F. Robinson Pres.; H. M. Perrin Vice-Pres.; C. F. Chapman Jr. Sec'y., and J. S. Brailey Treas. with Mr. Hilliard as manager. There were now, in 1905, 575 subscribers. In August 1905, M. C. Canfield became manager and he was followed by M. V. Jerret in 1908, with Sadie Klinger as chief operator and Edith Hatcher. In the meantime the Ohio Bell became the owners of the exchange.

3 "...born at Severn Cliffs, county Sussex, near Beachy Head, England, in the year 1622."--A Little Journey to the Home of Elder Pardon Tillinghast, p. 19

My assumption is that "Severn Cliffs" probably refers to Seven Sisters Cliffs, which is just west of Beachy Head, and is near the towns of East Dean and Friston.

24 1 Thomas Van der Mark, the progenitor of the Van der Mark family in America, was born in Holland in 1643. He settled at Esopus (now Kingston), Ulster Co., N.Y., about 1665, and soon thereafter removed to the new settlement of Marbletown near by, where he died in 1724, aged 81 years. He married Jacomyntje Jacobs about 1674. She died April 2, 1693. Both are buried in the cemetery adjoining the old Reformed Dutch Church at Marbletown. All of their ten children were probably born in Marbletown, although it is possible that some of them were born in Kingston. The date of their marriage and the dates of birth or baptism of three of their children were not found, but there is sufficient evidence to justify the years given as being approximately correct. For his military record see Appendix.

25 10 Frederick Van der Mark (son of Thomas 1), b. Marbletown, bap. Kingston, Dec. 16, 1688; m. (KgM 390) June 21, 1718, Geertjen Tack, bap. April 13, 1701, dau. of Cornelis and Barbara (Metselaer) Tack.

Frederick received land from his father in March, 1718, just before he was married, when his father was evidently dividing his land among his children. This land was on the south side of Esopus Creek at Marbletown, opposite Thomas's home land.

The records of 1712, 1720 and 1728 show that Frederick was a freeholder and inhabitant of Marbletown and was taxed there. When he moved to Rochester (now Accord) is not known, but he sold some land in Marbletown as late as 1730 to Arie's son Thomas, and in 1747 his daughter Barbara was married in Marbletown. No record of his death, nor of land transfers in Rochester (now Accord), has been found. For his military record see Appendix.

26 10-PELATIAH MASON, (1-Sampson) born April 1, 1669 near Providence Ferry in Rehoboth, Mass. He married, May 22, 1694, Hepsibeth Brooks, daughter of Timothy and Mary (Russell) Brooks. She was born probably in Woburn, Mass. about 1673 and died in Swansea, August 24, 1727. A tradition, probably from the records gathered by a grandson of Pelatiah Mason, says that he married a second, third and fourth wife and lived with the last wife for twenty-one years. There appears to be no recorded proof of any but the first marriage and the conveyances by Pelatiah Mason recorded after the death of his wife Hepsibeth, make no mention of a wife nor is there any release of dower. He was a tanner and shoemaker by trade and his homestead was on the highway leading from the Great Bridge--now known as Myles Bridge--to Mattapoisett, now Gardner's Neck in Swansea. He made no will, having distributed his real estate among his sons some years prior to his death. April 28, 1724, he conveyed to his eldest son, Job Mason, a lot of forty acres of land probably adjoining his own homestead. August 31, 1747, he conveyed to his sons Job, Russell and John, several lots of land for love and small sums of money and it is probable that these lots included all his real estate. He held several minor town offices in Swansea and appears to have been an active member of the Second Church. He died March 29, 1763 and is buried in a small family burial lot in an orchard probably a part of the homestead conveyed to his son Job in 1724. The location is a little more than a mile north-west from the meeting-house of the Second Church. His grave is marked by a rough field stone bearing the inscription P. M.--94--1763. The grave of his wife is marked by a similar stone inscribed H. M. 1727.
