John Deming was a jeweler by trade, and lived for a time in Amsterdam, NY, and later in Middlefield, NY.

He was a man of small stature, while his wife was a woman of unusually large size. She was a school teacher before her marriage.
According to tradition John Deming was a soldier of the Revolution, and the family record that he was born in Wethersfield, Conn, indicates that he was a descendant of John Deming the Settler, but, among the many persons of this name, it has been impossible to determine the connection. It is said that he had six brothers, including Thomas, and David, and that the family lived at one time in Litchfield county, Conn."
John Deming has a lengthy Rev. War pension file that includes the date and place of his marriage [by Rev. John Camp, Dec. 22, 1785 at the Canaan, Columbia, NY Presby.
