My 4th Great Grandparents Rev. John Clark and his wife Chloe (Pratt) Clark moved to Leyden (Lewis), New York,about 1800 from Saybrook, (Middlesex),Connecticut. I have been told he was the 1st Baptist Minister in Leyden but haven't been able to prove this. John's wife Chloe died in 1813 in Leyden and John remarried in 1818 to Isabella Delia Kent. They had 3 more children. I found this out on a copy of Johns will. The only thing I have on the 3 children are their names. They are Adalin B. Clark, Harriet S. Clark and Berinthia Clark all born in Leyden. I would appreciate any information on the 3 children. I also need information on 5 of John and Chloes children they are Ruth Clark b:16 March 1801, John Anson Clark b: 4 February1805, Reuben Pratt Clark b: 6 August 1807, Allen Clark b:December 1810 (died young) and Cynthia Sophronia Clark b: 11 November 1811, all these children were also born in Leyden, (Lewis), New York.

My search is for Rebecca Cordelia Dickenson, born 7 Nov 1805 in New York. When she married Nathan Wheeler Clarke from Litchfield Co., CT (where he has a LONG family history), she requested a transfer of her church membership (in March of 1831) from Turin to the First Congregational Church in Winsted, CT. The information in the CT Church record was hand written, but looks like conjoined initials ME (to me indicating Methodist-Episcopal as the denomination of the Turin church).

Rebecca gave her first born the middle name Wadsworth, and a younger daughter married a Wadsworth from New York, so that family name may connect to hers in Turin as well.

Please help me with my "brick wall"ancestor. I am her great-great grand daughter and namesake, Rebecca Murphy.

Hi,
I'm Frank (Francis) O'Neil and live in Cleveland, Ohio. I am a great great grandson of Michael and Hanora O'Neil. They are buried in the Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic cemetery near New Boston. They farmed that part of the country from the 1850's..I think they arrived in Montague in 1853. They were both born in Ireland. They had a son there, Arthur who maried a Katherine Moy and they are the parents of my grandfather Hugh Patrick O'Neil. Hugh P. married Loretta McDonald, also of Montague, farmed there and begat my father Francis O'Neil.
I cannot find where in Ireland the Immigrant Michael O'Neil was born. I would appreciate hearing any information relating to these immigrants. They had many other children, some of whom were Irish born and 2 Canadian born (Anna and Bridget), and others born there in Montague at home on the farm. I'm hoping someone in the line has this information.

Date posted: 26 February 2007

I am researching the Mullin family of Lewis County. The 1850 & 1860 census show them in Wilna, Jefferson County. They appear on the map of 1855, Town of Wilna Jefferson County. The 1870 & 1880 census they appear in Croghan, Lewis County. They also appear on the 1875 map Town of Croghan, Lewis County. They lived in a settlement known as the Mullin or Irish Settlement. In 1881 this settlement was destroyed by fire displacing 25 families. Other families who lived in the area besides the Mullins were Malady, Cotton and Perrigo. The area where the fire destroyed the settlement may now be a part of Beartown State Forest. The Mullin line was from Ireland and my goal is to find out where or when they came from Ireland.

Patrick Mullin b. Abt. 1803 in Ireland died before 1880. Believed to have had a son by a first marriage named Henry P. Mullin who was born Abt. 1830 in Ireland and died in 1912, Lewis County. Buried Harrisville Cemetery, Town of Diana but I have not been able to verify this yet.
Patrick Mullin did marry a Eliza A. ?. She was born in Jefferson County Abt. 1828. Date of death unknown.
Their children were:
John Mullin b. Abt. 1846
George B. Mullin b. Jan 3, 1849
Christiann Mullin b. Feb. 2, 1850 Wilna, Jefferson Co., d. Jun 30, 1936, Carthage. Married David L. Perrigo July 9, 1868, Felts Mills, Jefferson Co. (my gg-grandparents)
Hattie Mullin b. Aug. 4, 1854. d. bef. 1940. Married William Timothy Dunn.
Bridget Mullin b. Abt. 1858
Rosa Mullin b. Abt. 1860. She married Alfred Cotton
Thomas Mullin b. Abt. 1862 He moved to Montana.

The 1855 NY state census shows Patricks' father living with them. His name was Henry Mullin and he was 82 years old at the time of the census. The census of 1850, 1855 and 1860 also shows another Henry Mullin that may have been the brother of Patrick Mullin. If this family line looks familiar please email me at sam2813@aol.com. I would be happy to share what information I have and I also have ancestry information on the Perrigo line.

the War of 1812. I found Asa in the 1790 Thompson, Windham County,
Connecticut Census. I know they had a son Asa and another son and three
daughters. In early 1800's they moved to Guilford Vermont. They moved to
New York, but not sure if they all moved together or separate.
Asa Senior died in Selby, Orleans or Genesee County, New York on
September 4, 1823. I am looking for information in where he and his wife
are buried. I believe they were living with a son other that Asa Jr.
Possible name of son is Abiel. Abiel became a doctor. He married Anna
Sterling Cone around 1825. They lived around Medina New York. When he
retired he lived on a farm.
Asa Jr married Mehitable Boyden in Guilford, Vermont. They later
moved to Martinsburg, Lewis County, New York. They are buried in Beeches
Bridge Cemetery in Watson, New York.
They had ten children, I have names of nine of them, looking for the
name of the tenth child. Probably died at young age. Their first
child Hiram lived a little over a month. The second child is also named
Hiram. Hiram and younger brother Daniel B. Bowen moved to Michigan. I

on March 3, 1811.
Looking for any information, especially they the parents and siblings

I am looking for information on the Fruin family that lived in Greig, Lewis County. The first Fruin to appear in your census was Joseph Fruin, in 1840. Children were John, Katherine, Mary, James, William, Robert, and Jane. His wife was either Ann Newman or Mary Barrett. If you could clarify who his wife was, that would be wonderful.

His brother John Fruin also accompanied him to New York, most of his children were born in Chettenham, England. I believe they arrived in New York July, 1832, and appear on the census in Greig in 1840, 1850 and 1860. He died in 1870 in the Pinney settlement in Lewis County. His wife was Elizabeth Bryant, who I believe came from England with him. Their children were Ann, Joseph, James, Elizabeth, William J., Jane, and Hester Maybell Fruin.

His son, Joseph Fruin, lived in New York during the 1840,1850 and 1860 census periods, and all of his children were born there. Their names were James Augusta "Gus" Fruin; Cornelia Annetta Baldwin Fruin; Elizabeth; Eunice; Ella J.; Emma "Rosalia" Judd Fruin; Francis J. "Frank" Fruin; John B. Fruin; and Henry H. Fruin. Many of the immediate family members had moved on to Missouri by the 1870 census, though many extended family members remain in Lewis County to this day. His wife was Cornelia Amelia Baldwin; they were married by A. Johnson, Esq, in New York, though I do not know if it was in Lewis County.

My great great great grandfather Solomon Sage was one of those. He died in 1813 during the 1812 War, and I don't know what he died of but I've assumed he was in the New York militia.
What I am trying to determine is if he buried somewhere near Copenhagen and does he have a headstone?
His wife, Amy Sage, who was young and pregnant when Solomon died, raised her four children at Copenhagen, and then several years later (probably the 1850s) she moved to live with her son Horace Sage at Oneida Illinois"

I am looking for any ancestor's/descendants of Adolph Sauter. I don't have a birthdate, but am assuming sometime around 1880-1890. He had at least 2 sons by first wife, Carl and Fred, and a little girl. She died, then he remarried and had more sons. There is some confusion as to his wives, and children. Carl married Mae Henry.

Adolph lived in the Lowville, Martinsburg area. His father was either Adolf, or Gustave who immigrated from Germany.

Thank you.

What can you tell me about the Kilborn family in Copenhagen. I have found them in several websites, but nothing in depth.

The Kilborns were apparently located in Clayton, LaFargeville, and according to one website "several members settled in Copenhagen." They were responsible for the Kilborn family monument in the Copenhagen cemetery.

I have heard that the foundations of the family home are located in that area.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Have you heard of the Sischo (Cisco), Peck, and Plank names? My great grandmother was a Peck. Her grandmother was Rachael Plank (married to Aaron Peck), and her mother was Sarah Sischo, who's father died on a Lake Erie shipwreck in 1850. As follows:

/8/03 Email from Helen Wittenberg: My family tradition was that Levi and a brother were killed when transporting a condemned steamship on Lake Erie, leaving my great-grandfather John Wallace SISCHO, his brother Harrison, and sisters Sarah (Sally) and Emily/Emeline as orphans. [Their mother (Nancy DUNAWAY) had died about 1847] Harrison (8), John (6), and Sally (4) were with the DUNAWAYs in Denmark (Lewis Co.) NY, and Emeline (3) was with the family of Nelson RICHARDS, also in Denmark. Surname was spelled CISCO this time,

I had found a book on history of the Great Lakes which dealt with disasters, and later Sandra Watts sent me info on one of the steamers mentioned, The Anthony Wayne, a condemned steamship, which sank on Lake Erie in April of 1850. Very few of the surviving passengers or the victims were named, but there was a large loss of life. I felt strongly that this was the accident in which my gr-gr-grandfather had died, but strong feelings are not considered proof, are they?

Harry and Mary were married in April, the census was taken in September 1850. Why was she still with her parents? Is it a different Mary? No. Mary died 17 March 1851, is buried near her parents, and her gravestone notes she was widow of Harry. I don't have the dates in front of me, but the marriage occurred earlier in April than the steamboat explosion, so it is possible that brothers Harry and Levi, and Harry's bride Mary were on it, and Mary was one of the unnamed survivors. She could have retuned to Michigan, only to die the following year. THIS IS ONLY THEORY AND HOW IN THE WORLD CAN IT BE PROVED?????

Does anyone have any time to look into some of this? I am new at this, but I am having a great time researching it. Let me know where to start.

I appreciate your time. Let me know if there are any charges for this.

I am looking for information regarding the Schriminger/Scriminger line. It has come to our attention that Mathew Schriminger died in 1905, was married to a Matlida Canning. As far as we can tell their children were born in Antrium County Ireland. They may have been or Mathew may have been German, and moved to Ireland. They had two children: Matthew Scriminger who married Nelly Kelly (widowed) and then he married Lillian MacKensie ?they may have been from the Rodman Area, in Lewis County. The other son was Thomas Scriminger who married Catherine Yancy.

Mathew Schriminger (died in 1905) had a sister Elizabeth Scriminger who married Bartholomew Burton in Kentucky ? that ?s where the trail ends.

We have found all we can find in Jefferson County but there is a strong possibility that some family lived or was buried in Lewis County ? But we don?t know were to start or if that information is correct. If anyone has any information from marriages, to cemeteries I would appreciate it!
