From "Commemorative Biographical Record of Northeastern Pennsylvania"
     In the history of Susquehanna county there has been no family, perhaps, more prominent in its early development than the Tiffanys. Hosea Tiffany was at the head of the "Nine Partners" settlement in Harford township, and the descendants of himself and of his brothers and sisters to the fourth and fifth generation have proved worthy children of a noble and enterprising ancestry. The family in Susquehanna county are the descendants of John and Deliverance (Parmenter) Tiffany, prominent settlers at Attleboro, Mass., where they lived and died. They reared a family of sons and daughters who were inspired with patriotism, devotion, and aggressive achievement. The sons all served in the Revolutionary war, and became noted pioneers in the spread of civilization westward from New England centers. The daughters became noble pioneer women. John Tiffany died at Attleboro in 1788. His wife, who was born in 1718, died in 1798. Their sons were Capt. John, Zachariah, Ezra, Noah, Hosea and Thomas; their daughters were Patty, Esther and Anna.8

  5. The date was apparently not readable in the original, and is recorded as 1 Sep 17--. The source calls him son of James and "his former wife". Bethiah dies 27 Dec 1711. If the birthdate was 1 Sep 1711, she was not yet "former", but the birthdate can also not be 1 Sep 1712, as she had died 9 month earlier. If he was born shortly before she died, then he was in his 77th year at death, as stated in the source. The Sep. date is then a baptismal date, 9 month after the birth. Otis Nelson Tiffany gives the date as 1 Sep 1710
