According to Turner's History of the Holland Purchase, the first contracts for land in Belfast were issued in 1804 to Benjamin Chamberlain, Calvin T. Chamberlain, Jedediah Nobles, Elisha Chamberlain, William Pinkerton, Marvin Harding, Isaac Sanford and Abraham D. Hendern. It is probable that some of these men made their advent in the town at an earlier date, as it is stated in French's Gazetteer of the State of New York that "the first settlement was made on Genesee river, in 1803, by Benjamin, Elisha, Calvin and David Chamberlain, brothers, from Pennsylvania. It is not likely that all those mentioned above as having taken contracts for land in 1804 remained in the town for the protracted period; but some of them were residents during the remainder of their lives, and their children and grandchildren are in the enjoyment of the fruits of their toil. Among these are the descendants of some of the Chamberlains. Elisha Chamberlain had a son named Henry who married Hannah Reynolds the daughter of another early settler.

David Chamberlain, son of Sim(e)on & Elizabeth (Dodge) Chamberlain, was born c1775, prob. Winchester, Cheshire Co., NH, and died after 1850, prob. Angelica, Allegany Co., NY. He had 10 children, including Moses Van Campen Chamberlain, by his wife Mary/Polly Kinney, whom he m. c1801, prob. in Ontario (now Allegany) Co., NY. She was born c1784, the only child of Thomas & Tryphena (Tibbetts) Kinney. Ref. Chamberlain Chain, Vol. 27, April 2000, Branch 147, pp. 2-6, submitted by Pamela Brewer Burns of Shavertown, PA. Contact the Editor/Publisher, Carolyn Weidner [Email: weidnerc@worldnet.att.net ], to obtain a copy. This is a detailed lineage, complete with sources and biographical sketch for this David( 5) Chamberlain, LN812 in the lineages of the genealogist David Conrad Chamberlin, Sr., whose data are used to prepare this lineage. Data included in this sketch indicate that Tryphena Tibbets was, after the death of her husband Thomas Kinney, married 6 Nov 1786, as the first of three wives of Benjamin Chamberlain, Sr., David's elder brother. Mary/Polly was also, in various records, incorrectly called Tibbetts, as discussed in this biographical sketch, when, in fact, this was her mother's maiden name, as shown above.

February 5, 1851
Died at his residence in Illinois on the 20th December 1850, David Chamberlain, Esq., formerly of this county aged 58 years. The deceased was one of the first settlers of this county, and during a residence of 35 years, he has ever possessed the well merited esteem and confidence of all with whom he had any acquaintance. Every upright and honorable in his intercourse with his fellow man, he has left a large circle of friends and relatives to mourn his loss.
Robert H. Chamberlain, son of David and Mary (Kinney) Chamberlain, was born in Belfast (NY) in 1824. Simon Chamberlain, his grandfather, settled in Angelica (NY) at an early day, from Massachusetts, where David married his wife. Children:
Hepsabeth, Moses Van Campen (the first white male child born in Angelica), Elizabeth, Elisha, Purdence, Mary, David, Simon, Lucy and Robert H., who was brought up a farmer. In 1843 he married Sarah Allerton. Children:
Joanna (married Frank Luther, an old soldier), Joseph M., (went to war with his father), Stephen (also a soldier, died in hospital near Washington), Robert, Edwin, Adam, Sarah, George and Philip P. All are dead but Sarah (Mrs. Wilson Kelley, who had one child, Bertie). Robert left one child, Gracie (Mrs. Charles Patterson). Mr. Chamberlain's second wife was Sindora Young, and his third wife, married in 1890, was Mrs. Frances C. (Laning) Noble of Rushford, whose three children were: Corydon L., Charles L. and Anna M. Mr. Chamberlain was a soldier in Gen. Banks' expedition up the Red river. On the night of Jan. 14, 1863, while in line of battle at Camp Bisland, the men were so exhausted they laid down and slept in water that covered their bodies all but one shoulder and their head. After 19 months service he came back to Allen. In 1870 he removed to his farm in Hume (NY), and in 1890 to Fillmore (NY). His pension was raised in 1894 from $12 to $24 per month.
