Sophia Elizabeth Hazlett married James Dunfee, probably about 1810-1813. They were found in Liberty Township, Adams County, Pennsylvania in 1820. Their neighbors were Jonathan Hazlett and George Dunfee. I think there is a good probability that Jonathan is the father of Sophia and George is the father of James. However, there is no “proof” only circumstantial evidence and a gut feeling. George Dunfee “disappears” after 1820. Jonathan Hazlett, along with James and Sophia (Hazlett) Dunfee move to Plain Township, Wayne County, Ohio prior to 1830. They lived in relatively close proximity to each other for the next 20+ years (Jonathan in Richland-Ashland County and the Dunfee family in Holmes County).

The ability to comment has been turned off for all blog posts effective 21 May 2018. Kinexxions has been inactive for more than two years and most comments have come to me directly via email from readers but more than a few were simply spam. My desire is to keep the blog available to the public since there is value in what has been published, particularly posts dealing with family history.
I am still extremely interested in hearing from readers who might be related and have questions or simply want contact with a distant cousin. Please contact me directly via email at kinexxions@gmail.com
This action is also being taken partially due to the General Data Protection Regulation aka "GDPR" going into effect on 25 May 2018. Even though it is a regulation implemented by the European Union that primarily affects businesses and corporations, it governs how data about people can be used. That includes comments left on blog posts, thus the ability to comment is no longer available.
