Shelley, Adeline Austin is a descendant of "Robert Austin of Kingston, Washington Co., Rhode Island". Parents: John Pitt Austin and Nancy Pearce. This database can be found on the Austin Families Assn of America Website www.afaoa.org . You can see it in Family Group Sheet style by going to Austin Research - Northern databases - RI Robert. Or to see it "book" style go to the Text Document Search - Descendancy Books. When searching on a name in Text, there is one minor annoyance. There is a generation number between the given name and the surname when the person appears in the book as the "head" of his family (for example John1 Austin). Use the asterisk as a wild character to get around this feature (to search for John Austin, enter "John*Austin").The quotation marks are required to just return documents with John Austin and not all of the documents containing Austin or John. Please contact Art Sikes, compiler for further information.

FOSTER - AUSTIN Family Photographs (Shelley Cardiel) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Wed, 29 Sep 2010 07:36:03 -0700 From: "Shelley Cardiel" <cardiels@comcast.net> Subject: [AUSTIN] FOSTER - AUSTIN Family Photographs To: <AUSTIN@rootsweb.com> Message-ID: <A22165990BD04F2B9E13A22A7544A70B@CardielPC> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" I've "rescued" a group of old photographs belonging to the FOSTER and AUSTIN Family of New York. The photographs included in this group are as follows: 1 - Florence FOSTER, taken at the Arcade Studio in Buffalo, New York, dated 1879, girl in teens 2 - Samuel P. FOSTER, taken at the A. W. Simon Studio in Akron, New York, dated 1896, man in his 50's 3 - Adeline AUSTIN FOSTER, taken at the A. W. Simon Studio in Akron, New York, dated 1896, woman in her 50's 4 - Adeline AUSTIN FOSTER, taken at the Howell Studio in Jackson, Michigan, dated 1896, woman in her 60's or 70's (these are the same woman, though the photographs could not have been taken at the same time, I'm thinking that #3 was actually taken in the 1880's with the photograph of Samuel P. FOSTER also appearing to have been taken in the 1880's rather than 1896) Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding this family: Florence FOSTER was b. Dec 1861 in NY to parents Samuel P. FOSTER (b. Oct 1830 in Bennington, NY) and Adeline or Adaline E. AUSTIN (b. Aug 1836 in Bennington Center, NY). This couple had three children including, Arlettie; Florence; and Minnie FOSTER all born in NY between 1859 and 1863. Adaline or Adeline E. AUSTIN was the daughter of John Pitt AUSTIN (b. 15 Sept 1801) and Nancy PIERCE (b. 9 Feb 1806 in Livonia, NY). Florence married Mr. JOHNSON.
