Hello All, In 2002 I took a genealogy trip to eastern New York State. I traveled by train to Albany, NY. Since I had brought my bicycle and camping equipment with me, I first rode to Stone Arabia for a family reunion. There was also a Memorial service in the Palatine Lutheran Church. One of my relatives who donated funds to build the church later moved to Canada. I did some research at the Archives in Fonda, NY. I later visited the cemetery where my parents are buried. I next traveled to to New Paltz, NY. I stopped in the Hugenot Library. I also spent 4 days doing research in the New Paltz Library. I then went to Albany and did some research there. This was a 2 week trip. Has anyone ever done anything of a similar nature? Richard
