Hello Riley, I have both ALDRICH, ALDRIDGE and ARLEDGE in my lines. Most of my attention has been focused on my ARLEDGE line, but when I read your email, my relatively small line of Texas Aldrich's came to the surface. It is rather uncanny but my Collin ALDRICH, son of my George ALDRICH is not apparently the same line as yours. Can you take a look at this line and see if it connects into yours somewhere? By the way, my brother Sam Fulcher lives there in Temple. I'll tell him about your reunion. It sounds like fun. Thanks...

Desperately seeking any information on the many wives of Arbaces Aldrich. At this time I am aware of three of his wives, Elizabeth Boren, Amy Risenhoover, and another whose name I do not know. Family lore has it that Arbaces was married to seven different women. Can anyone supply the names of any of his wives. Any help would be appreciated. Joy Gabbert McKillip

Hi Group, Could someone please help me find the name of the Aldrich gentleman who married Harriet M. Clineburg? In a copy of her father's, Ignatius Clineburg, obit it said that Harriet M. Aldrich was living in Iowa. I can find nothing as to her husband, but she had several children. Ignatius raised the children in Cortland NY so that is where I guess Harriet met Mr. Aldrich. Please help. Cheryl ccline@erols.com

Hi Dave: I think you are going to have to go to the Quaker records in RI.

Hi everyone-- Has anyone on this list researched the Mendon (MA) family of Joseph-3 (Joseph-2, Thomas-1) and Lydia (Copeland) White? The birth records of seven children (were there others?) are in the published Mendon VR, but I have little information otherwise. Their daughter Hannah-4 White is said to have married Moses-3 (Jacob-2, George-1) Aldrich, but I don't see any evidence for this. Several genealogies say that Moses married Hannah White on 23 April 1711, but this record is not in the Mendon VR. Has anyone found the primary source of this date? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dave wenonah@gwis2.circ.gwu.edu

Epidemics have always had a great influence on people - and thus influencing, as well, the genealogists trying to trace them. Many cases of people disappearing from records can be traced to dying during an epidemic or moving away from the affected area. Some of the major epidemics in the United States are listed below: 1657 Boston Measles 1687 Boston Measles 1690 New York Yellow Fever 1713 Boston Measles 1729 Boston Measles 1732-3 Worldwide Influenza 1738 South Carolina Smallpox 1739-40 Boston Measles 1747 CT,NY,PA,SC Measles 1759 N.
