The Monitor does not guarantee the accuracy of original content that now resides off its web site. Eloise M. Covey, BLOOMINGTON, Minn. Thursday, November 7, 2002 BLOOMINGTON, Minn.-Eloise M. Covey, 85, formerly of Concord, died June 27 at her home after a short illness. She was born in Brattleboro, Vt., the daughter of Purle and Pearle (Greenwood) Covey.

Graveside services will be held Saturday at 10:30 a.m. in Blossom Hill Cemetery in Concord. Note: I am of no relation, but my sympathies go out to those of you who are. This is here as a lasting memorial for Miss Covey.

Hi, all! I ran across a good site for researching land ownership. It also contains images of the original paperwork. It does NOT cover all states, unfortunately. But, it's always worth a shot!

Where is James Covey, the husband of Mary Lanphere, buried? I have Hope Covey married to Mary Lamphere about 1685 in Westerly RI. Died in Westerly in 1727, and James Married to Sarah Lamphere in 1707 or 1708 in Westerly, RI, and died unknown in Westerly RI. It is assumed that my line goes back to James and Sarah through their son Samuel. Cathy Atkins, Covey (MASS.)

Does anyone have documentation that James Covey (1715-1782) died in Washington County, VA? He would have been 67 years of age and Washington County, VA is a very long way from RI, CT, or NY. Does anyone have documentation that this same James Covey actually lived in the state of New York? It has been reported that he served in the French and Indian War (Great Swamp Campaign of 1761) and was entitled to bounty land in New York - Philipse Division, Lot 49 of Dutchess County, date of lot chart is May 2, 1781. But do we know if he left CT and actually lived in NY before his death in 1782? Where is James Covey, the husband of Mary Lanphere, buried? Millie Covey Fry

I know many of you will not be excited about this, but some who descend from ol' Sam Covey of NY and Quebec might be. I was playing around on the MI Death Indexing System, just plugging in names I was researching since so many went there from Quebec and NY. I put in COVEY for father's name. I got back "Debba Langway", who would be aka Deborah Longeway, died 14 Oct 1884 Columbia, Tuscola Co, MI, married, 81 yrs old, birthplace CAN, parents: James and Elizabeth COVEY, born CAN. This is the URL: http://www.mdch.state.mi.us/pha/osr/gendisx/search.htm What was Deborah doing in MI? There are so many missing children for her and Joseph Longeway, that someone must have ended up there. I came up empty on the 1880 MI census, but who knows how Longeway might have been spelled? There is so very little known about the 13 children they had, but somehow, at least one of them landed there. I'm so thrilled to have the death date of another early Covey. Even though she is listed as married, I can not locate Joseph Longeway -- their search ends in 1884, and she died in Oct. Joseph - if there - must have died after that. Anyway -- I was thrilled -- just "out there" looking around and came across Deborah, far from home. I also found Samuel Covey, aged 79-6-1, died 16 Jun 1877 Almer, Tuscola Co, MI, born Ontario, s/o Samuel & Jane Covey, both born Canada. I still have not entered some of the Ontario Covey data into my database. Before I have to dig out everything, can someone give me a quick answer on this Samuel? Poor man died of "gravel" -- what does that mean? Did it fall on him, did he get swallowed up by it? Geesh...
