Erastus R Holdridge b BET 1824-1830 maybe in Herkimer Co., Salem, NY
d AFT 1872. S/o Charles Eldridge Holdridge b 13 Oct 1795 New London, CT.d 17 Dec 1871 in Herkimer Co., NY, Charles wife was Isabel Rathbone b 1795 D/o John Rathbun & Joanna Joslin.
Family records show Erastus was married to[first name may of been Ella] Jane Edwards, this is the only place I have seen her name listed. I have seen records showing he was married to Maria E Erskine b 17 Feb 1815 married to Erastus 3 Oct 1835 in Winchester, Cheshine, New Hampshire. Maria was d/o John Erskine & Achsah Jewell.
I believe Erastus & Jane had a daughter, her name being, Mary Jane Holdridge b 14 Mar 1844 in Fernwood, NY d 20 Nov 1930. Mary Jane was baptized in the United Methodist Episcolpal Church in Fernwood.
[The above item is taken from her obituary]
