Manassa and Maria Patterson Sixbury had a child, Cornelius, who was baptized on Jan 20, 1792 at the Caughnawaga Reformed Church in Montgomery County, NY. William and Catherine sponsored the child's baptism. It is possible that this was their son Manasse, but it seems more likely that he was a grandchild or a nephew.
