[Entire page struck through with two penciled diagonals:]
Clossian, Glasseen, Classeen
There were four brothers
Piel Clossian, or Peter Clossian Newell Clossian, the Indian doctor and dandy Swasen Clossian, a good canoe builder, grave & tall Joe Clossian.
The families of the last three and I believe of the men themselves died at Norwalk {Conn.} of small pox
Piel never married
The only other of the name was Sebat Clossian
Gen. John Blake's Roster of 1814, 1815 gives none of the name " " " " of 1818, gives Crossen Wasses (i.e. Clossian Wasses) and Polis Wasses, Probably the 4 brothers were sons of Clossian Wasses & so cousins to Joseph Polis.
