We found a reference in the local Oswego County History that indicates Albert Bohannan came from Rome, New York. That information is supported by the 1800 census that lists Albert as a resident of Rome New York. His coming out of Rome seems to fit the typical migration pattern of many that came to the region from the east, mainly New England states. Previously, I believe Albert, like other early settlers of Richland, New York, must have come from Canada with English speaking loyalists who fled the states after the revolutionary war. Now it appears that Albert came from the east.
