Mary Ann Colony

Pedigree
Birth*4 December 1823 Mary Ann Colony was born on 4 December 1823 at Masonville, Delaware Co., New York. 
Note*4 December 1823 Note(s): on 4 December 1823 Mary is a candidate for being a daughter of Joseph or a niece. However, she's not listed in DW Colony petition, so niece is probably more likely. Do further research to find her parents. Info from Calvin Ingram [cingram@inficad.com].
I had another Masonville, Delaware County, New York "Colony" listed in some written notes that had not been placed in the computer. Some of the info is from ancestry.com records, and I have not looked into how accurate the information is.
Mary (Ann or C) Colony -
Born - December 04, 1823 in Masonville, Delaware County, New York.
Died - June 16, 1904 in Springfield, Bradford County, Pennsylvania
Married to George William Pettingill on January 11, 1845 in Daggett, Jackson Township, Tioga County, Pennsylvania.
George was born September 13, 1804 in Providence, Providence County, Rhode Island. He died September 30, 1892 in Springfield, Bradford County, Pennsylvania
I cannot confirm these exact dates, but find a George W. and Mary C Pettingell listed in the Leona Cemetery, Jackson Township, Tioga County, Pennsyvania. The cemetery information only gives the years these two were born. George looks to be correct listed as 1804-1892. Mary's middle name is C on this transcription not Ann. She is listed as 1822-1904. This not uncommon.
I cannot find any Colony's in this Township, but do find the Seely's, whom my Henry Colony's wife belongs to. The 1840 township census may show Colony's, but the 1850 Township census does not.
Henry Colony Jr was located nearby, on the Tioga County, (Tioga Township) Pennsyvania federal census in 1850.
Thought you may wan't this info, as it fits into Joseph Colony's timeframe, and may give you locations to look into.

Mrs. Mary Colony Pettingill.
     
The subject of this sketch was born in Delaware county, N.Y., December 4th, 1820 and came with her parents to Wells township to reside in 1840. In 1844 she was married to George W. Pettingill and went to Jackson, Tioga county, moving from there to Leona, where she has been known and highly respected for the long period of nearly half a century. Here husband died twelve years ago and since that time she has been an inmate in the home of her son, M. W. Pettingill, who is her only survivor. She passed away on Friday June 17th, from disease incident to old age. A woman of energetic mind, a great reader and her declining years were made happier by her retention of faculties, which enabled her to indulge in that pastime. She had been a member of the M.E. church for many years, being faithful in the attendance of its duties, and always present at its services as long as health permitted, and when denied that privilege her great solace was her Bible, whose daily perusal was her chief delight.
     
Her funeral was held from her late home on Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock, in charge of undertaker Bloom of Troy. The Rev. L. L. Wilcox of the M. E. church spoke. A large number of friends followed her remains to her last resting place in the Leona cemetery.
     
(Leona News) Mrs. George Pettengill, an aged resident of this place, was buried on Sunday. She is survived by one son, Monroe, and family of this place. Funeral in charge of undertaker C. J. Bloom.
