Parents proof Henry Tilton Emery
Henry Tilton Emery according to find a grave and a personal photo of grave stone was born 31 May 1783 and died 10 April 1865 Westport, Maine. I am reasonably sure his parents were Caleb Emery (1763-1811) and Mary James (1759-1807). However, cannot find proof. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have one hint that he may have been born in Sanford, Maine. However this family appears to have ties to the Canadian Maritimes. He could have been born anywhere along the coast. Also the is more than one Henry Tilton Emery. Need to be sure we have the correct one. Any suggestions or info is appreciated the

You might try searching for the will or other probate record for Caleb and other Emerys in York County, Maine to see if Henry is mentioned as his son. The land records could also be searched to see if Henry may have received land from his father or another relative in York County. You can find these in the FamilySearch Catalog under York County and the topics Probate Records and Land Records. The Probate Estates Files, the Probate Records, and the Deeds have all been digitized, but not indexed by name yet.
