The Pleasant Grove, Minnesota Partridge Family
Abel Partridge was born to Joseph and Sarah (Warren) Partridge in Chesterfield, NH, on Sunday, 17 May 1795. This is the Partridge line that often spelled their last name Pattridge; with Abel and his family, I find the Partridge/Patridge/Pattridge variations. I lose track of Abel through his childhood, until I find him in a marriage record to Sylvia Mansfield. This marriage took place in Chittenden County, VT on 18 Jul 1827.
It appears that for a short time after the wedding, Abel and Sylvia may have settled down in Essex, VT as their first child, Prescott, was born there on Friday, 2 Oct 1829. Not soon after that birth, or perhaps, even before the birth, we find Abel residing at Highgate, VT. He was enumerated there as Abel Patridge in the taking of the federal census in 1830. Note the varian spelling of the last name, as he will appear using that name in official census records, yet his gravestone shows the proper spelling again.

Partridge Family Tree
My Partridge family tree has for a long time been the staple of Partridge information online. I am now providing means for all Partridge researchers to assist with the development of this database of information by "adopting" your branch of the pear tree. While I can conduct research on Partridge's who are deceased or at the least recorded, it is becoming increasingly more difficult for me to input details about living Partridge's. In order to help protect the privacy of all Partridge's this data is now being housed in a secure password protected website. I'm very positive of its security, as I own and develop this major genealogy website. Any and all details about living Partridge's can be restricted down to the branch of the family tree. Meaning, only people who are part of that branch, can see the living information details, and add and correct them.
Any person gaining access to the family tree will need to contact me first using the form I've provided on the Partridge Family Tree site. Part of your responsibility will be identifying yourself in our data, or better yet, telling me I don't have you in the data and explaining where your line should be... ;-)
Once you've been placed in the appropriate line of your family tree I will grant you access to the database.
