I got this information from Bill Marlatt and Dave Rorabacher of the Marlatt, Malott, and Mellott Family society. It seems to be fairly reliable, since it was verified by two different individuals (but could be incorrect information which has become entrenched in the records, such as the Elizabeth Harmon problem). Anyone who has further information is encouraged to email me. The information below is a synthesis of the two versions.
Jonathan David Matlatt
Daniel Marlatt , b 26 Apr 1824 in Mendon, Monroe Co., NY; m. Mary Shiffer [I have seen several different spellings of this name in the family records -- Jon]. Also married Sally _______
Mark Marlatt, b 20 May 1784 in Mohawk, Herkimer, New York, d 17 Oct 1866 in Mendon, Monroe, New York; m 4 Jan 1810 in Florida, Orange, New York Dorothea Frank, b c1790 in Warrensbush, Montgomery, New York, d 10 Oct 1864 in Mendon, Monroe, New York; she was the daughter of Andrew Frank and Evah Nortman. Mark Marlatt & Dorothea Frank had 10 known children of which Daniel was number 6.
Michael Marlatt, b 19 Jun 1759 in New Jersey, d 4 Jul 1837 in Mendon, Monroe, New York; m c1783 Margaret Frederick, b 6 May 1764, d 17 Jul 1842 in Mendon, Monroe, New York; she was the daughter of Philip Frederick and Maria Sophia Saltz. Michael Marlatt & Margaret Frederick had 7 known children of which Mark was number 1.
Mark Marlatt, bapt. (24 or) 25 Oct 1734 at the First Reformed Church, Raritan, Somerset, New Jersey, d after 1778 in New York; m Sophia Fonteyn (vital info and parents unknown). Mark and Sophia had 8 known children of which Michael was number 1.
Thomas Merlatt/Marlet/Merlet, b c1698 in Raritan, Somerset, New Jersey, d c1748/49; m Neeltje (vital info and parents unknown). Thomas Merlatt & Neeltje had 7 known children of which Mark was number 6.
Abraham Marlett/Merlat/Marlatt, b 26 (or 6) Jan 1656, bapt 3 Feb 1656 in Mannheim, Germany, d c1716; m Christence Billiou, b Oct 1658, Leyden, Holland, d before 1706; daughter of Pierre Billiou and Francoise du Bois. Abraham & Christence are believed to have had at least 5 children and possibly more of which Thomas was one of the youngest; however, Thomas was the oldest surviving son at the time his father wrote his will. Abraham subsequently m before 1706 Elizabeth (vital info and parents unknown) and had 3 additional children. [There is much confusion regarding Abraham as, until recently, his second marriage to Elizabeth was attributed to his son, Abraham, bapt 1680, who apparently died in childhood. -- Dave]
Gedeon Merlet (son of Josias Marles and Jeanne Robb), b c1624 in Champagne, France; m 6 Aug 1644 in Leyden, Holland, Margaret Martin, prob b 1622 in Limbourg, Belgium. Gideon Merlet and Margaret Martin had 6 known children (and possibly a seventh) of which Abraham was number 5.
