1832 [5] |
- "John P. Mabee was elected town clerk in 1832. He wrote a peculiar, plain, handsome hand. For some years he was a partner with A. H. Buell, in the merchandise business. He was the son of Peter Mabee and a man of ability. He married Miss Maria Easton; from Norway he emigrated to the State of Ohio, where he died relatively young, leaving no male descendants. Dr. Peter Mabee at one time owned the farm on the state road now occupied by James P. McLaughlin. He died at Ballston Springs in 1825, whither he had gone in quest of health. His wife was Margaret Service, a sister of William H. and Philip Service; she lived to a good old age and died in Norway in 1870. One of their daughters, Alida married Dr. Walter Booth and is living: the other, Susan, married William Vandenburgh, and died two years since. Simon Mabee, a brother of the Doctor was a merchant at Fairfield and Little Falls. We think there are no male descendants of either family now living in this vicinity. The following newspaper clipping we presume may refer to their ancestors: 'The Schenectady Star' says: About 6 and a half miles west of that city, on the south side of the Mohawk, the Mabee family settled about 200 years ago. The house where they now live was built over thirty years previous to 1720, and has been occupied by the same family for six generations."

- Steve Mabie writes "These are my great-great-grandparents. John and Maria lived in Norway NY then moved, in 1840, to St. Joseph County, Ind., where he died in 1846, one year after my great-grandfather John Peter Mabee was born. John Peter enlisted in the 20th Indiana Infantry in July, 1661, and later married Bessie Berryman in 1879 in Camden, NJ, with John Peter dying in 1884. One of their sons, Walter Constant Mabie, owned a printing company in Philadelphia and, in 1927, served as the National Commander-In-Chief for the Sons of the Veterans of the Civil War. His son Walter Weir Mabie was my father.
