FILER FAMILY.


"Samuel Fyler," then so spelled, was in East-Hampton as early as 1677-8, and from him the line runs down to the present day. Many of this stock have removed from East-Hampton to localities far distant, of whom Zephaniah (brother of Thomas the tailor) removed to Troy, N. Y. nearly or quite one hundred years ago, where his descendants now live. The family has been industrious and aspired to mental culture.


Thomas the tailor had ch. Theron, and Charles of Sag-Harbor, who both left descendants.


THERON had ch. born in this order : Samuel F., Mary H., Thomas A., George E. and Henry C.


CHARLES had ch. born in this order : Nancy L., Charles H., Herbert, Ozem, Emmett, T. Alvah, Ada, Harriet.
