Here is the information I have for Reuben Osborn & Family of Attica, Genesee/Wyoming County, New York. Most information is tentative and I would appreciate help in confirming or proving false, and your reasons for doing so. Most has been pieced together with strong circumstantial evidence.

Reuben Osborn
Born-Before 1765
Died-December 21, 1812 in Genesee County, New York
He married Hannah Skinner about 1779 in (Vermont?)
Hannah Skinner

Died-After 1850 and before 1860 in Attica, Wyoming County, New York.
--Reuben's notes- In 1803 Reuben Osborn and Simeon Williams were chosen deacons; the former, some years after leaving this Church was ordained to the ministry. So Reuben served as Deacon at Sangerfield Baptist Church in Waterville, New York and then served as Minister at Attica Baptist Church after being ordained.
--1800 Federal Census in Sangerfield, Chenango County, New York.
