(Birthplace is Kingston, Addison County, Vermont. Kingston later changed its name to Granville.)

     When John Dean Estey, Jr. was about 12 years old, he was in charge of taking horses from Plattsburgh to Crown Point, New York during the War of 1812. From about 12 years old until the age of majority, he was bound out to a farmer.
     Numerous family trees and at least one published source erroneously state that John married a "Charlotte Lovelace" after Charlotte Lawrence. However, no source records corroborate this claim.
