Does anyone have info on the Austin's line from Canada? [email protected]

In the publication "Austins of America", February 1984, page 95-97, there is an article entitled Illinois Austin Biographies. It is an adaptation of "The Biographical Record of Whiteside County, Illinois...1879". There are extensive details on the Isaac Austin and Deborah Reynolds family including their child William and his wife Margaret Livings, parents of Dennis Austin ( 1 1/2 pages on Dennis ). One page on Isaac Austin and his siblings Hiram, William and Lenore. Isaac and Hiram's parents are Steward Austin and Louisa Reynolds. Dr. Mike Austin, editor of "Austins of America", says that copies are available in most State Libraries, as well as major Genealogical libraries. If unable to locate this publication, he will copy article for you. You can contact him at [email protected] Liz Austin Carlin

I am looking for info that was included in one of Edith's early works on the misc Austin families. She wrote to my great grandfather about his family in 1950, unfortunately he died in 1949 and my g grandmother or my grandfather never answered her letter. However, another family member did. He submitted some info he had on the Austin family in New York. His name was Charles Austin and was a descendant of George Austin of NY. This branch of our family moved to Michigan Samuel Austin was born abt 1800 in NY, his father was Peter Austin. I would like to know if anyone has a copy of this book and if so what it contains about the family of Peter Austin. I have been unable to go back any further than Peter and all of that info is not complete. I do know he was born between 1760 and 70 and that he died sometime after 1840 in or around Danby NY. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks! Alinda

I am researching descendents of Thomas AUSTIN, born abt 1790 in England. He immigrated to America with his wife and seven children. His wife and one child reportedly died at sea. I have located Thomas Austin and this family in Ohio,US in 1843, when Thomas married Mary Ann Henessey. The last child that I have a birth date for is George in England, 1832. So they must have come to the states between 1832 and 1843. Children of THOMAS AUSTIN and are: 1-THOMAS AUSTIN, (II), b. December 09, 1824, England; d. July 04, 1899, Watervliet, Berrien, Michigan. 2-WILLIAM AUSTIN, b. Abt. 1825, England; d. August 07, 1874, Ogden, Weber, Utah. 3-PHILIP AUSTIN, b. Abt. 1830, England. 4-GEORGE AUSTIN, b. Abt. 1832, England 5-(FIRST NAME UNKNOWN) AUSTIN, b. Unknown, England; d. Unknown, At sea (Atlantic Ocean) 6-GRACE AUSTIN, b. Unknown, England; d. Unknown. 7-JAMES AUSTIN, b. Unknown, England; d.

I'm looking for information on Herbert Austin, 1920 US Census, Watertown, NY, ED 57, sheet 13, line 19. I would like to know the name of his parents and/or his place of birth. Any info would be appreciated. Thank You, Don Austin

Hi, Could you post info on your Bartholomew? Number #? I have a John and an Edy Austin I'm trying to track--do you have details on your Bartholomew's children? Thanks, Cyndi

It's possible, but I can find no Hiram in the information I have. William was born 11 Nov 1795 in Rensselaer Co., N.Y, and died 22 Oct 1859 in Mt. Pleasant Township, Ill. He married Margaret (Peggy) Livings about 1854. She was born 8 Apr 1799 and died 3 Oct 1877 in Mt. Pleasant Township, Ill. William was the son of Isaac Austin who was baptized 16 Apr 1762 and died in Renselaer Co., N.Y. in 1802. He married Deborah Reynolds who died in 1802 also. We show Isaac's father as David Austin who was baptized 5 Jan 1739 and married a Margaret Stuart. Deborah Reynolds was the daughter of Reuben Reynolds II and Hepzibah Reynolds. Reuben was born 1735 and died 1819. Hepzibah was born 1744 and died 1823. I have tentative ancestors of Margaret Stuart and both Reynolds. David Austin and Margaret Stuart had children: Sylvanus, Holmes,Mary, Charles Stuart, Hannah, Isaac (ours), Isaiah, Prudence, Samuel & Jeremiah. Isaac and Deborah Reynolds had six children: Isaac, Joel, Stewart, Seymour, Sarah and William. William and Peggy Livings had, we show, ten children: We do not show a Stewart as a son of William. So glad to get that information (any dates, marriages, etc.). We show Ezra died in infancy. Maria, 27 Jan 1820; Miranda, March 1822; Daniel L., 22 Oct 1823; Dennis; Jonathan died aged two years; Silas 6 Dec 1830; Martin V, 1833; Georgiana, 1837; William S. Dennis and Harriet Gary also had ten children: Emory 19 May 1848 who drowned in Rock Creek at the age of twelve; Millard F, 27 Oct 1850; Frank P, 20 Mar 1853; Harrison C, 9 Apr 1855; Esther W. (my grandmother), 20 Apr 1857; Olive B., 17 Sep 1860; Lincoln A, 11 Jan 1864; Hattie B, 22 Dec 1869; Clara E, 21 Mar 1870; and Clark D, 17 Apr 1873. I have names of some of the other grandchildren of William and Peggy - but no Hiram. If any one else has information on this line, I would be glad to receive it.

Greetings, I am posting this to the group in response to messages recently posted regarding Austins in Illinois. There was an Isaac Austin who married Deborah Reynolds and had several children. Two of them are particularly interesting to this discussion: Stewart abt 1790 and William 1795 who was father to Dennis and Daniel Livermore. Daniel's wife Myra died and was buried in the Lyndon Cemetery. Dennis is related to Robert Maxwell and I believe that Stewart is the Stewart who lived in Lyndon and was the father to Hiram. I have no proof of this but there are several things that make that seem very reasonable. What do you think Robert, Robert and Michael? I can gedcom the info on this line to anyone who is interested.
