There is some evidence that Jeremiah could be the son of Jeremy who is buried near him in the same Willow Avenue area. The original source record for births, marriages and deaths is extant at the Museum of Springfield History and may provide better clues than the transcription at www.americanancestors.org. If more compelling evidence can be discovered, I'll be happy to link Jeremy with his son.
