- Biographical or historical data
- Enoch Honeywell was born September 23, 1788 in Bedford, New York to William and Elizabeth (Crawford) Honeywell. As a young man, he traveled extensively to trade goods in Indiana and Ohio. He owned 160 acres of land in the area of what is now Terre Haute, Indiana where farmed and shipped pork to New York via New Orleans until illness required him to return to New York. He married Eliza Dye (1795-1868) on September 30, 1820 and they had three children: Alba (1821-1916), Gilbert (1824-1905), and Emma (1831-1896). The family first settled in Cayuga County, New York and then moved to Schuyler County, New York in 1836. Besides his trading activity, Honeywell engaged in chair making and spent much of his life farming and creating pamphlets and articles for newspapers concerning his anti-slavery and prohibitionist ideals.
