Hi! Cynthia, I love your site and find your dedication to genealogy and the sites you are hosting great. Very Inormative with Ideas for new areas to investigate. How ever do you find the time? I see you have a similar problem to one I have--hitting the wrong key too many times, when we are in a hurry:) Keep up the good works and know that your labors are truly appreciated. Happy hunting, Jan Looking for Riant/Ryant, Powers, Webber and MANY more.

> From: C Anderson <vermont1791@yahoo.com> > > Cousin Lester - > What are the names of the heirs to Rowland and Mary > (Richardson) Powell. This is on a quitclaim deed dated May 7, 1801, wherein the heirs of Rowland Powell 4th give whatever property Rowland 4th had left to son Luther Powell in exchange for the Goshen, VT land that son John Powell had been the original grantee of and that Rowland 4th had bought from John. The heirs other than Luther plan to divvy up the Goshen, VT land among themselves. The heirs listed on the quitclaim deed are (with my marginal marks added): Clarissa Powell Zebulon Delano Lusina Delano Thomas Savage <-- A hubby-in-law Molly Savage <-- Undoubtedly a daughter Isaac Chamberlin <-- A hubby-in-law Lucy Chamberlin <-- Undoubtedly a daughter Calvin Powell <-- A known son Elisha Powell <-- A known son John Powell <-- A known son Elisha Whitcome <-- A hubby-in-law Cloe Whitcome <-- Undoubtedly a daughter Rowland Powell <-- A known son Stephen Tilden Jr Stephen & Lowena Powell Luram Powell (Among the "attests" is a Garatia or Haratia Powell) (This is Vermont-style handwriting, so the actual spelling -- the actual names -- could be doggone near anything.) (The Delano's might perhaps be "heirs" via a business arrangement.) I imagine that some or all of the unknown Powells above are undocumented kids of Rowland 4th, maybe who got themselves born at Brimfield, Hampshire Co., MA. > Some relatives have told me that > both Rowland and Mary are buried in Delano Cemetery > aka the old Savage Farm, some say It's actually the Powell cemetery. The Delanos bought Rowland Powell 4ths farm, and on the deed, Rowland specifically excepted the burial ground from the sale. The "History of Hartford" (by William Howard Tucker, 1889) lists these graves in the "Delano" Cemetery: Mrs. Mary Anne Powell (Luther Powell's wife), Rowland Powell (the 4th), Mrs. Molly Savage (a daughter as shown above), Mrs. Mary Anne Powell (Ms. Richardson), Mrs. Chloe Whitcomb (a daughter as shown above), and a whole bunch of others of no interest. The cemetery is described as "in a deplorable condition," with various headstones knocked over, missing, or unreadable. (I have only a few photocopy pages from the book, all of which are out of focus.)

Some relatives have told me that both Rowland and Mary are buried in Delano Cemetery aka the old Savage Farm, some say that only Mary is buried there, and some say that Mary is buried on flat land and Rowland is buried on the side of a hill. If I were on that famous quiz show and asked if Rowland and Mary were both buried in the same plot, I would have to walk away. It would be nice if some non-relative would take a stroll through the Delano Cemetery and give an impartial, unbiased and objective report. Oh yes, and a picture to prove that Rowland and Mary (Richardson) Powell are really buried there. Cousin Charlie __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Barr celebrated the 50th anniversary of their marriage at their home three miles north of this village yesterday surrounded by their children, also many other relatives and friends. Mr. and Mrs. Barr participated in the amusements and gayety of the occasion with as much zest as the younger people, who were present. Mr. Barr was born in Stockbridge, Vt., March 13, 1835, and was the youngest of five children of sturdy Scotch ancestors; his parents were Joseph and Luna Bennett Barr and he is the last of the family. Mrs. Barr was born in Cavendish March 10, 1838 being one of seven children of Mr. and Mrs. Sylvanus Norton. At the age of 15 her parents moved to Weathersfield where they afterwards resided. Mrs. Barr has one brother living, Elbert P. Norton of Springfield. She is enjoying remarkably good health and does nearly the entire household work.

H. 11th Vermont regiment and served in til the end of the war taking active part in all the battles the regiment was engaged in. June 23, 1864, I was taken prisoner in the Welden Railroad battle and for one year I suffered the tortures of Libby, Belle Isle and Andersonville. When I was captured my weight was 225 pounds and when discharged I was reduced to a little over 100 pounds and when discharged I was reduced to a little over 100 pounds and my clothes were so worn that they hardly covered my body and when I beheld myself in a looking glass I could not believe it was D. M. Barr. I was formerly a member of Post Sheridan at Weston and when they disbanded I joined Henry Post with which I hold my membership. I was commander of the Weston Post and I also held all the other important offices." __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.

It is reported, he was the son of John Randall of New London, Connecticut. Lets take another look and see if this triggers a response from anyone. Based on a lot of conjecture, some intuition and a little information; JOSHUA RANDALL, son of Greenfield and Anna (Bellows) Randall was born and lived in Preston (Middlesex) Connecticut. He and Martha "Patty" Wright had a child every two years but missed 1778 (the year James Randall was born) Joanna Pemberton lived in Preston (Middlesex) Connecticut and she and James were born in Middlesex County, Connecticut. And, James and Joanna were married in Middlesex County, Connecticut. I would love to hear from anyone and everyone about this posting.

Anne, The only WELLMAN I have in my collection is Harlow WELLMAN, husband of Edith (SHERMAN) (1821-1909,) she b. Cambridge, Washington Co., NY., d. Blockville, NY., d/o Isaac & Mary (GIFFORD) SHERMAN. I have no dates or further information on Harlow. If you have information on "ANY" White Creek families that you would like to share please let me know and I would be happy to include it in the collection where it will be available for others. There is a Washington Co. newsgroup that would be a more proper place to send your request, but if you know of a definate connection of your WELLMANs to the CT River Valley, it would be good to know that as well.

Were there any WELLMANS listed for White Creek. Am looking for ALVAH WELLMAN. Thank you.

I missed the first part of this message. Who wants to know about White Creek, NY.? I have been collecting data on ALL of the early families from there for over twenty years and love to share information.

Dear Cynthia, Thanks so much for posting Pelham records. I am researching the McCulloch family from Pelham and would love to communicate with other researchers interested in Pelham history. Kearby Parker Easton, MD

There is an area in Hartford VT known as Goshen. Likewise, there were 2 "gores" in Addison county known as Goshen 1 and 2, now Stannard in Caledonia, and Plainfield in Washington Co. ....if I'm reading VT Placenames right. There's also a Goshen town in Addison Co., a Goshen village in Bradford, Orange County. Only in Vermont! Sherry

Lester, Goshen is a little hamlet in the town of Bradford, Orange County, VT. Right where you described it from mapquest. That is the only Goshen I know of in Orange County. As far as I know it was never known as a "town". I would try looking for records in Bradford, possibly Newbury as Goshen Road area is close to the Newbury town line. Hope this helps.
