• Name	Isaac WASHBURN
  Birth	18 Mar 1809	W. Exeter, Otsego County, New York, USA
  Gender	Male
  Death	1862	W. Exeter, Otsego County, New York, USA
  Notes	Immigrated from W. Exeter to Adams in 1848. According to , "We first know of him as a youth in 1832 writing to his uncle Abraham. In 1841 he appears again with Miles (brother) selling land in W. Exeter at the settlement of the parental estate while they describe themselves as residing in Plainfield. But this was a mere matter of town boundaries. The whole family belonged to the Exeter community. Their residence in Plainfield runs close to the edge of W. Exeter village, if it does not cut off a part of it. In fact one of the deeds of their father describes the W. Boundary of his purchase as following the E. Boundary of Plainfield, and his E. boundary as Wharton Creek to a point on the millpond. Some time after 1848 Isaac moved to Adams in Jefferson County Before this he had come into possession of the water power consisting of millpond, dam, etc., and the sawmill, gristmill and fulling mill on Wharton Creek, apparently the same land his father bought in 1802. These he sold in 1848 for $2600 to Mr. H. Cole who owns them to-day (1911). Isaac is said to have married after settling in Adams".
