EMERICH/EMERY Jacob Sarah; NJ > NY; 1770-; SCHMIDT/SMITH

Q. Who were the ancestors of Henry and Sarah (EMERICH/EMERY)
SCHMIDT/SMITH?

1. Henry SCHMIDT/SMITH, b. NJ ca. 1772 [7 April 1773?]; d.
Lansing, Tompkins County, NY 1 Oct 1855; m. 18 Dec [1796] to
Sarah EMERICH/EMERY, b. NJ ca. 1777 [15 November 1775?]; d.
Lansing, Tompkins County, NY 9 or 10 August 1865.
It appears probable that Jacob SMITH was Henry's and Sarah's
eldest son; this may be a valuable clue towards finding either one
of their fathers. It should be noted that a John EMERY was b. in
Covert, Seneca County, NY on 1 October 1832 to Jacob and Julia
(COOK) EMERY. Perhaps Jacob EMERY was a brother or other close
kinsman to Sarah (EMERY) SMITH.
Children, uncertain parentage indicated by square brackets:
