CGB-EBB-O. William MALTBY, b. ca. 1819 to 1825. (Line of descent uncertain, but he appears to be closely related to those children of Timothy (6) who were connected with Cincinnati.)
"He often spoke of Rochester, N.Y. (Monro Co.) He was 6 feet 2 inches tall. (I believe all of Timothy Maltby's six sons were over 6 feet tall--though this, definitely, is not evidence).
He went from New York state to Madison, Indiana, about 1840. He was finely educated and before his marriage he taught school. He mar. Watty Green in 1850. He did not use tobacco or liquor in any form, was a great Abolitionist and attended the Presbyterian Church.
He was in the Mercantile business in Madison and moved his store to Grayford, near Vernon, Indiana.
Before the war, when in Cincinnati with his father, William, Clayton Lester Maltby states:--"We were in a wholesale store owned by a Mr. Maltby. Father did not make himself known, but on leaving the store said: 'That man was my cousin'."
(Note. Apparently "the man" claimed as "cousin," was Lafayette Maltby, b. Ulster Co., N.Y., 1819. His firm was Keys, Maltby and Co., a wholesale store in Cincinnati, between 1852-1855. It did the larg- est wholesale business in the city.
There is no doubt in the compiler's mind but what Lafayette and William were own first cousins. If so, who has dropped William's name from the records?
Lafayette's father was Anson (6), consequently William's father should be a brother of Anson, (sons of Timothy 5).
The sons of Timothy (6) were: Hiram, b.1817; John, b.1822; Charles Rollin, b. 1824; Albert H., b. 1827; Ralph Robinson, b. 1830; Chauncy Smith, b. 1833.
Henry Maltby had a son Frederick, b. 1855 (this line appears not to fit). James Maltby had sons William, b. 1834 and George Seymour.
William Maltby who mar. Watty Green in 1850 must have had a sis- ter Mary, as he often spoke of her and wanted his eldest dau. called Mary for her. (Timothy 6 had a dau. Marie, b. 1832). There appears to be no place for this William except as a son of Timothy.
William left home because of what he considered undeserved punish- ment. He ate some pies, and evidently his mother (or step-mother) rendered severe punishment. When he left he said "You will never hear from me again."
