Jane Maria Deyoe
Probably the wife of Lewis M. Adams, married in 1833, and the mother of Susan Marriah (Adams) Elliott; born in 1809, she lived at Wilton, Saratoga County, New York, and died there in 1892. Probably a daughter of Peter J. Deyoe and Elizabeth Esmond of Pittstown, through whom the family descends from the Huguenot founders of New Paltz.
Life
- 1809Born4 Jul 1809, Pittstown, Rensselaer County, New York
Her gravestone at Loudon Cemetery, Wilton: "His Wife Jane M Adams Born July 4 1809, Died Dec 8 1892" (the Find a Grave photograph, 70659162, as the Ancestry tree carries it); the Deyo genealogy has "b. 7-4-1809," and WikiTree reads the censuses as 1808. Her parents were at Pittstown from 1810 to about 1832. The Ancestry tree has 4 Jul 1803 at Saratoga Springs.

The Deyo genealogy's "d. 11-14-1843" is an error, very probably a slip for her marriage date: she bore a daughter in 1852 and is in the censuses of 1850-1865.

The Deyo genealogy (1958) has "G-160 JANE MARIA, b. 7-4-1809 ... m. 11-14-1833 LEWIS M. ADAMS" under "F-86 PETER J. m. Elizabeth Esmond," lineage "James-Peter-Jacobus-Christian"; her brother was A. I. Esmond Deyoe. Peter J.'s probate (Saratoga, 1857) would settle it.

Notes
Mother of Susan (Adams) Elliott and great-grandmother of Cudge Ellingwood. Born on 4 July 1809, she was probably the daughter of Peter J. Deyoe and Elizabeth Esmond of Pittstown, Rensselaer County. She married Lewis M. Adams on 14 Nov 1833, as the Saratoga Sentinel announced it (source), and lived with him at Wilton for the rest of her life.
Through her the Ellingwoods descend from the Huguenot founders of New Paltz: her father’s line runs
James Deyoe, Peter Deyo of Pittstown (bp. 1739), Jacobus, Christian, and Pierre Deyo, a patentee of
1677, son of Chrétien Deyo, another. The Saratoga links rest on will abstracts in the 1958 genealogy,
and one has a conflict (see James Deyoe), so the line is probable
(research/ellingwood/Ellingwood_Wives_Families.md).
