  • Notes 
    • (Research):
      Deborah Way was born 23 Jul 1793 in Brunswick, New York. She married Johannes Kotchapaw in 1815 in Brunswick, New York. About ten children were born to them there.

      Then about 1826, John, Deborah and some of their children moved to a place near Belleville, Ontario. Deborah's brother, Reuben Bedell Way, and his family and Johannes' brother George Kotchapaw emigrated with them.

      They likely chose to come to Prince Edward County because they had relatives there. Jacob Ketchabaw, John's brother had moved to Hastings County in about 1813. Also, Deborah's Uncle, Daniel Way, and his sons Samuel, James and Benjamin had settled there in 1789 as United Empire Loyalists after the War of Independence.

      Although Deborah's grandfather had fought as a patriot during the War of Independence, his son Daniel and Daniel's three sons chose to adhere to the crown. Likely for this reason, Francis disinherited Daniel leaving him only a token amount of money [4]
