Fellow listers, I am seeking the connection to My BELDEN/BELDING line that runs through the Southern Tier and Central NY. My earliest Belden is Comfort BELDEN who was born in Horseheads NY circa 1820. He married Harriet Webster bef 1845. Harriet was born in Union Springs,NY. Their son Lewis Franklin BELDEN was born in 1847 in Union Springs. In census records Comfort used BELDEN and BELDING. His children settled on BELDEN as spelling. Would there be anyone out there whose BELDEN/BELDEN line went thru or splits off to Chemung county and/or Cayuga county in New York? Any assistance greatly appreciated. Rick
