Looking for information on the Hubbs family who resided around Phoenix, Oswego County, New York in the 1800s.

Trying to track a Maria and an Eleanor Hubbs. Maria married a Rockefellow and Eleanor married Truman Candee and had daughter Emma Candee. Am trying to track their parentage.

Thanks

Surnames: Hubbs, Rockefeller, Beach , Candee,
Update:

Harriett Hubbs b. 1788 in New York was married to a Charles Hubbs we believe. They had three children: Maria b abt 1820, Charles b abt 1821 and Eleanor b abt 1825.

Maria married a William Henry Rockefeller and had three children: William H., John, and Catherine Elizabeth in the 1840s in Cohoes, Albany, NY. Family history has it that father William was a builder by trade and died in Bath, NY at the military hospital.

Son William appears to disappear from the family. Not sure if he moved, died, or what.

John becomes a canal boat captain in Phoenix/Schroeppel area.

Catherine married a Mr Beach (Martin?). It is she whom we are descended from.

Charles Hubbs married and moved to Schroeppel, Oswego County NY. Maria and her children are listed on census as living with Charles after Maria was widowed.

Eleanor married either a Truman or Lyman Candee (I've found both names used) and had a daughter; Emma Candee. Emma it seems had two husbands; The first a Mr. Keller. She married a second time to her cousin John Rockefeller.

I'm still trying to obtain information on Harriet Hubbs and her husband. If you are part of this extended family or have knowledge of them I'd appreciate any information.

Update:

The Hubbs and Rockafellers are buried in the Phoenix Rural Cemetary, Lot 5 section 32 in case any of the Hubbs people are researching. Charles Hubbs was a "master boatsman" as was nephew John Rockefeller when he grew up. Looks like living and working on the canal was the way of life for these folks.
