To all Armstrong cousins, It is with a heavy heart that I recevied this notice of the passing of Clemi. I remember her well when I first joined this sight and have always enjoyed her comments and contributions. I believe that she embodied the true Armstrong spirit. May she rest in peace.

Bummer for sure. Clemi was one of my first online contacts. We've been corresponding since back in the days of FidoNet. I never got to meet her though. I threatened several times but never made it to west Texas. While searching for her obit in the Amarillo paper, I see that her mother-in-law passed away on January 29.

I am so sad. I dearly loved reading Clemi's messages through the years. Please post where I can send a card. Thank you. Carol Davis Florida

Although I haven't been active in searching lately, I have been reading. Such sad news, I remember her fondly as being more than willing to help and with a sense of humor.

Dear All, I have no address for Eric in Sydney Australia so hope to use the List to contact him. Some years ago he sent me lists of Armstrongs killed at Gallipoli and I have just discovered that he had also asked a question. Is it too late? If you're out there Eric please contact me. Thank you List for your forbearance. Joe of Gateshead.

Hi, Thanks to the generousity of Clemi Blackburn, I have finally found something concrete about my Armstrongs ancestors in the Revolutionary War. This is from one of her posts: "Adam, S44554, NY Line, Appl Apr 16, 1818 Oneida Cty., NY, in 1821 sol was in Herkimer Cty, NY aged 50 & wife was dec'd & he had 3 children, Sol. s. 27 Aug 1843 leaving children: Elizabeth wife of Moses Seger of Lewis Cty, NY; Polly wife of Graylord Griffin of Herkimer Cty, NY Archibald Armstrong of Oneida Cty, NY "Abstracts of Rev. War Pension Files" pg 74 I 'get' most of it...I'm assuming S44554 is his reference# or something similar. Appl=Applied? sol=Soldier? What does s. mean...he's not 'single' Most important to me though is understanding what the 3 different dates signify. 16 Apr 1818; 27 Aug 1843; & the year 1821. I would appreciate any help in deciphering this. Thank you----And a HUGE thanks to Clemi! Judy

He is my Great Grandfather. I have searched records and can not find any information about his childhood. I know his father was born in NY and his mother is Mary Unkown b. Jul 1847 in England. Immigrating to the US in 1851. The 1920 census is the last one I find Mary in. William Harley had 2 brothers: Edward C. & John S (wife Adelia C. ultimately they lived in OH, no children) & a sister Elizabeth Allen. Much of the family lived in the Wyndotte/Detroit area of MI. William Harley Armstrong married Bessie Spicer (she had a twin sister Bertha) and they had 6 children: Jack S.

Hi everyone :) A very dear friend of mine sent me this link, knowing I have Armstrong ancestors. The individuals in this tree are from Michigan, so I don't think they're going to connect to mine, but I thought perhaps one of you may be able to connect ... http://www.nd.edu/~dpaul/armstron.htm#N_10 If Dorothy Paul is on the list, I found what I read on this page very well written and an interesting read, I was impressed!! :D Take care, Robyn.
