A lot of the old cemeteries are in poor shape. I am 55 years of age and the 4th of 6 children. Godfrey had I believe 2 sons who moved west, some settling in Michigan, then Wisconsin then further west. My Father moved to Ohio where I was born and I moved to NY about 20 years ago. I have quite a few relatives still in the Massachusetts/New York/Vermont triangle area (the Hoosic/Hoosick/Hoosac Valley) where the family originally settled. Can you tell me which of the sons of John (Hans) George Brimmer you desecended from? I am always willing to share what information I have with others willing to share what they have. If your Mother or Father prefer I can give you my email address. I look forward to hearing from you again.
