(Note: Elizabeth's beginnings as the first child were during the "Lost Years" for Johan and Anna Sales. We don't know how they met or where they married. It could be Ulster or Dutchess County, or somewhere in Old Albany County (Greene, Columbia, or Rensselaer). All we know is they most likely lived along the Hudson River, somewhere between Kingston and Saratoga. The Cronkhites were moving around this same area -- Dutchess Co to Claverack to Hoosick, with Jacob's father and older brother fighting in the Indian Wars and then the Revolution. So far there has been no actual record found of either Jacob or Elizabeth's birth. Jacob's family left Hoosick by 1785. We pick up Elizabeth as a baby or little girl with her parents in Hoosick, when the family appears in records of Schaghticoke Dutch Reformed Church, the closest one around, in the early 1770's.)

In 1830 they moved to Randolph, where he bought the Benjamin Clark farm, which included the grounds occupied by the railroad depot, and about two years later opened his house as a tavern. About seven years later he removed to Carroll, Chautauqua county, where he resided ten years and kept hotel. Returning to Randolph he followed farming until his death March 3, 1866, his wife dying the same day, both being buried in the same coffin.
