I am interested in any information on Luther and Sally (Staples)
Ormsby. I know that they had at least one son, Luther. Did they
have any additional children, if so, who. Both Luther and Sally
were born in CT. Sally was last known to be in Howard, Steuben
County, NY in 1850 and probably died there. Luther was last known
to be in the same place in 1860 living with his son Luther, and
probably died there too.

New York Census
1830 Luther Ormsby, Broome County NY, Township Colesville
1850 Luther Ormsby, Steuben County NY, Township Howard
1860 Luther Ormsby, Steuben County NY, Township Howard
Very little is known of Luther Ormsby, Jr. He is shown in the 1855 and 1860 census for Steuben County, New York. His wife, Margaret, is apparently his second wife since she was only 24 years old in 1855, and Luther's children (Oman & Albert) are listed as 14 and 9. No information can be found as to the name of his first wife. The same 1855 census shows that Luther, Jr. was born in Otsego County, New York; Margaret was born in Pennsylvania; the two sons were born in Illinois. He is listed as a farmer. As of this writing I have no idea where any of the four are buried.
