This has been a very hard family to trace. Because mainly the father was gone form home most of the time. It is said that he was a slave trader, now I have not found anything that will verify that...fact, then the mother died at a early age..So it was the older brother James and his wife Betsy who took care of the children,But it seems like they all got along very well. James William the Sr. was also a Blacksmith and that form of trade sure followed the family life off all the Patterson's males...After his wifes died and his wondering days were over he settled down in Dryden New York, he was there in 1850, And he had a 5 acrer farm in Lansing N.Y. 1866 to 68. he died the 23 March 1866 in Lansing New York, His oldest son James had a farm next door to his farm.. The senior Patterson was laid to rest in Miller's cemetery, Dryden, New York at the age of 72
Olive his wife was born in New Haven Conn. She was 53 when she died, and was laid to rest in the Old Presbytrian, Cemetery in Dryden, New York. I have found out very little about her family. There is little more I can say about them until I find the Book one their Geneology . I wish I could find it for a lot of speculation is in this work..But the part I have been able to but together is right and proven.
