Hi, After further checking, I do have William b. 1826 d. 1903 m. 1st Mary Jane Booth b. 1826 d. Aug 13, 1871 and his 2nd wife Rachel b. 1839 sister of Mary Jane Booth. Children of William and Mary Jane are Theodore b. Mar 13, 1849, Hattie b. May 4, 1857, Waldo b. May 1, 1863. They lived in Berkshire, Vt and buried in East Franklin, VT. It has been a while since I did anything on the Armstrongs so a little foggy on them right now but I do have Samuel married to Rachel Booth. I found another record on a Samuel Armstrong that must belong to another family that says, Jones, Thomas s/o Thomas Jones of Frost Village, was married by license to Isabella, dau of late Samuel Armstrong of Shefford 31 Dec 1872 Witness Mahilol? Armstrong and James Latty. All I have on George L. Armstrong b. 1825 d. 1890 is that he is married to Lavina Bridge and that George is buried at Newport Centre. I have a one page record of the Children of Robert Armstrong and Ann Booth that comes from Berkshire that says Robert and Ann Armstrong sailed from Sligo, Ireland. They came from the County of Lathram and town of Drumsharribo with ten children and were on the ocean thirteen weeks. Sailed Apr 17, 1823. I'm not familiar with the Galusha papers only that Sarah Ann Armstrong b. 1832, one of the daughters of Robert Armstrong and Ann Booth married an Aaron Leland Galusha. Sure, I would love to see a copy of the transcripts if you have one. My email is below.

I am descended from George L. Here is what I know about Samuel: Born Dec 10, 1827 and baptised July 13, 1828 at Frelighsburg Holy Trinity Anglican Church. He was married to Rachel Booth (1839-1915), daughter of Joshua Booth and Sara Taylor, around 1859. I know nothing of an Isabella Armstrong, and in fact if Rachel's date of birth is correct I don't believe that would be their child. I think there was a child, Florence Adelaide Armstrong born 1861 and died 12 December 1871 in Berkshire, VT. I believe Samuel died around 1869 in Vermont. Rachel then married William Armstrong (Samuel's brother) around 1872. William had been married to Mary Jane (Ann?) Booth, sister to Rachel. Mary Jane died in 1871. I'm not sure if you are familiar with the Galusha Letters- they are a collection of letters donated to a museum in Lowell, MA. I can tell you more about them if you are not familiar. Anyway Samuel wrote several of those letters, and I can send you transcripts if you are interested. My questions on the Armstrongs have to do with George. I have seen conflicting documents asying he was born in Canada and he was bornn in Ireland. I am also trying to find a ship's manifest for the Armstrong's journey.

Okay, the Galusha letters. I stumbled across them quite by accident. They are a collection of letters to and from the Galusha and Armstrong families, (from the mid to late 1800’s, though there are a few from earlier than that), who were related by the marriage of Aaron Leland Galusha to Sarah Armstrong. They were donated to the Lowell National Historical Park. People in the letters: Amy Galusha, also known as Nin, wrote a majority of the letters. She worked in mills in Lowell and in Vermont. Also her mother Polly Larabee Galusha, who was married to William Galusha. They lived in Berkshire, VT. Amy’s siblings: Helen Jane Galusha who married William Kendall. They moved to Wisconsin. Aaron L. Galusha “Lele or Leal” married Sarah Armstrong. Arvilla Galusha “Vill” who married George Drent. Mattia Galusha married Orrin Taft. William Galusha married Mattie. The Armstrongs that either wrote letters or are mentioned in them- Samuel Armstrong- he spent years in the Oregon territory and worked as a minor. Several of the letters are from him detailing Indian Wars and his time out west. George Armstrong, Sarah Armstrong and Sarah Ann Armstrong (Sarah Crellar), Sarah Booth, Marshall Armstrong. There are some letters to/from Lucretia Le Frary of Sutton. Also some letters written during the Civil War by a family friend.. There are tons of other people mentioned in the letters, in chats about day to day life. Some that I can think of: Leafy Stanhope, Elizabeth Carty, Robert Carty, Sarah Clark, someone named Plantina, Elin Whitney, William Booth, “Dorinda”, --- On Tue, 2/2/10, ShonHal@comcast.net <ShonHal@comcast.net> wrote: > From: ShonHal@comcast.net <ShonHal@comcast.net> > Subject: Re: [CAN-QC-MISSISQUOI] Roll Call:Armstrong, Crellar, Dhu/Dew, Hollenbeck, Dayton > To: can-qc-missisquoi@rootsweb.com > Date: Tuesday, February 2, 2010, 10:04 AM > > > I am just curious - what are the Galusha Letters?

Thank you for your translation. I appreciate it. Kathleen
I do not understand. I thought slavery ended here and St Armand, in 1834. "In l830, in the face of American protests, British authorities in the Bahamas declared that slaves from the wrecked schooner Comet were free. Parliament finally ordered the abolition of slavery in the British colonies to take effect by August l, l834, three days after the death of Wilberforce. The Empire was at last freed from its terrible curse." Read more at Suite101: The British Empire - free Suite101 course http://www.suite101.com/lesson.cfm/18253/1495/4#ixzz0d3x5ymeK John Anderton
I was wondering if anyone knew the names of the 238 slaves that lived in the area. Carollee Reynolds
