        Am hoping to find information on Calvin HATHAWAY (1775 NJ-1814 PA) who got to Washington County between 1802 and 1804 (birth of son John [1804 PA-1872 OH]).

        Calvin m. Mary DAY (1775 NJ-1852 PA) in 1796 Morris County, NJ.

        All I've been able to locate regarding Calvin's 1814 death is an Orphan's Court record.

        Any tips, tricks, and info greatly appreciated!
