Morning all, I know there are some Wisconson FAY's on the list. I've just comes across information that may be helpful to you, as well as me. According to "Pioneer Families of Cleveland, Ohio 1796-1840 Volume 1" Mary BORROUGHS, daughter of David BORROUGHS Jr. & Clara EDWARDS, married Lyman FAY, her aunt Rhoda's stepson. They removed to Kenosha, Wisconsin. I did some cross-checking in the book for the EDWARDS name, Rhoda EDWARDS first married Lymon RHODES and second John FAY. I know the book in is error with the first name of her second husband. Her second husband was Benejah FAY (OPF 95). Benejah FAY did indeed have a son named Lyman FAY (b. 10-6-1815) This may be a missing link for someone out there. if you link with this son of Benejah FAY, by all means let me know. I can go back and get further information on the other direct lines (BORROUGHS, EDWARDS) as well for those who may want it. Enjoy, Jim SHREVE Sr.

Reviewing my FAY research I note that the wife of James J. Fay (who i am desperate to find) had a wife: E. HENRIETTA FAY. Does this ring any bells? Les Hewett, Napier, New Zealand.

Hi everyone, A few short notes tonite on the Fay mailing list and website: 1. The genconnect Fay messages will now be reposted to this mail list per the following announcement from genconnect. That should be helpful. 2. Cyndi's List has recently listed the Fay website on their large list of genealogical websites. Perhaps we'll have some visitors from her site. 3. The Surname Ring, an organization with rather stringent requirements, has recently added the Fay website to its ring. If you are researching other surnames, you might want to check with them as they list only "comprehensive" surname websites with research areas. Just click on the Surname Ring logo on the bottom of the homepage for the Fay website, http://www.fayfamily.org 4. Due to annoying ongoing problems with personal notes being posted to the list, the "reply to" default setting used by rootsweb has recently been changed to be the sender rather than the list. This is in accordance with a recently issued advisory from rootsweb. In all cases though, the "reply to" address used by your email program, if it has one, overrides the default setting at rootsweb. 5. This mailing list continues to grow slowly and now has 152 subscribers. If you know of someone that would like to subscribe to this list, please have them send me a note at madgrad77@hotmail.com. Everyone is of course welcome. 6. If you haven't had a chance to post a note on your research interests or would just like to say hello, just take a moment and send it to Fay-L@rootsweb.com. Contrary to popular opinion, you do not need to be done with your research or be an "expert" to post. Everyone is welcome to post. 7. Comments, criticsms and suggestions on either the mail list or website are always welcome and can be either posted here or sent to me (madgrad77@hotmail.com) or to Linda Fay Kaufman, webmaster. Hope everyone enjoys this nice spring weekend, Bob Fay List Administrator ********************************************************************** ----Original Message Follows---- From: Tim Pierce <twp@rootsweb.com> To: listowners-announce@rootsweb.com Subject: GenConnect & Mailing List Gateways Date: Fri, 31 Mar 2000 19:31:50 -0500 Hi, folks -- You asked for it -- here it is! GenConnect boards can now be "gatewayed" to mailing lists. When a board is gatewayed to a mailing list, every message posted to the GenConnect board will be forwarded to the corresponding mailing list. The message sent to the list will contain the URL of the specific post to allow the list subscribers to respond directly to the message. In this manner, gatewaying will enable more effective communication between the mailing lists and the GC boards. Here's how it works. In order to establish a gateway, two things need to happen: 1. The mailing list administrator needs to add `gc-gateway@rootsweb.com' to their accept list. 2. The GC Board administrator needs to activate the gateway, using the Change Page at http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/signup/change.html. If the GC Board administrator activates the gateway but `gc-gateway@rootsweb.com' hasn't been added to your accept list, then GC posts will try to send posts to your list, but they will be tagged "{not a subscriber}" and bounced to you. This is important; GC admins should *not* try to activate the gateway without first checking with the corresponding mailing list admin. Note: many "Cluster" mailing lists have gc-gateway@rootsweb.com added to the accept list by default when the list is created. List admins for these lists who do not wish to allow gatewaying should remove this address from their accept list. For International and Special Boards, the mailing list manager should first tell the GenConnect staff which mailing list should be used for the gateway. To do that, use the Gateway Request Form: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/cgi-bin/gateway_request.cgi A Gateway FAQ Board has been set up for any other questions not answered here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/AdminCenter/gateway?admin Enjoy, and keep doing good genealogy! -- Regards, Tim Pierce RootsWeb.com lead system admonsterator and Chief Hacking Officer ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

Dear Mary, It looks to me as if you use just one Federal Census, i.e.1900. I would suggest that you also look at the 1870, 1880, and 1910 Federal Census for Danbury, NH. You may pick up more children of Loring E. Fay and more information about him. Be sure and copy down every detail given in Census ledgers/microfilm. Use the Census Index book to locate what county to use for the Census ledger/microfilm. I would also contact the : New Hampshire Society of Genealogists P.O. Box 633 Exeter, NH 03833 Phone: (603) 432-8137 You might ask them what resources they have as far as newspaper abstracts or clippings, obituaries, and the town histories of DANBURY, NH, preferably one with genealogies. They will have a list of NH societies and probably a list of addresses for the Public Libraries in the area. They may have a local Danbury genealogist who can help you for a small fee. You might also see if they have/or know where the City Directories for Danbury, NH. are located. These books are generally published yearly and some towns have these books back well into the 1800's. Each year the adults were listed. Their wives were listed in ( ) . Then you will get employment and residence. Be sure to photocopy the pages for the Surnames you need, and write down the bibliographic details for each book as many directory companies existed and they competed for town business. You might put an inquiry into the State Society Newsletter, magazine, or homepage. You may be asked to join the society for the priviledge of using their resources. Some places charge a look-up fee, so call first to see what they can do for you. Please keep us posted as to what you find. Good luck with your research. Sincerely, Mary (FAY) Nelson 9

Further to my initial effort, can you put me in contact with this lady? Proven research indicates his name was James J. Fay. I went to the NY Historical Soc. who could not find anything on this JJ Fay. The Cow Neck Historical Soc., Port Washington, knew nothing but put me on to a Fay family descendent near there. I phoned from down here and the nice lady told me all about her cousin who was researching the family tree andthat she would pass on my request and the information I sent up. Needless to say, I am still waiting. She did, however, indicate that she believed their family was Joseph Fay "but there was another Fay here who sold up and went out West." What's it all about, you might well ask. My grandfather's brother, Walter Hewett, and he (Frederick) were fighting over the same Salvation Army lassie in London's East End. Their father, Henry John, packed Frederick off here to New Zealand and Walter to New York, in 1886. Walter became the coachman to James J. Fay and when Fay purchased his estate at Sands Point, Walter went also. Possibly as a consequence of Fay selling up (?) Walter set up his own taxi/hackney/freight business in PW until he died in 1933. Walter's first child was born at St. Nicholas Avenue near 150th Street. I know nothing of New York but I am aware this avenue runs off/near Central Park today and might just have been the address of wealthy businessman JJ Fay? If anyone can help further you will earn the gratitude of family in the USA, England and New Zealand. After nearly 100 years of no communication between the two estranged families, and five years of US research, I have found US cousins and we're sharing our family history.

Morning all, I received this from Donald Hoffman, who is a cousin to Dora HOFFMAN, the wife of Edgar B FAY. These are transcriptions from Parma Heights Historical Cemetery, which I had posted to the list a while ago, however these were done by the Cleveland Genealogical Society. I plan on looking for the source he mentions my next visit to the library. BTW, the HUMPHREY's below are related to Dudley Sherman HUMPHREY whom married Mabel Truman FAY, daughter of Benejah FAY (OPF 95) & Ruth WILCOX. There is still a mystery surrounding George W FAY, both are buried in the plot that belongs to Jeremiah Wilcox FAY & Mary Ann BRADLEY. One is listed as the son of B & R, which would have to be Benejah FAY & Ruth WILCOX, however according to "The History of Parma" the son born to Benejah FAY & Ruth WIlcox was Joseph Mason FAY. Hopefully when I can find whomever has the records of the cemetery I'll do more about that. Additionally the second George W FAY, by his date of birth, could not be the son of Jeremiah Wilcox FAY and Mary Ann BRADLEY. I've hypothesized before that he is the son of Benejah FAY & Rhoda EDWARDS. It is also possible he is the son of the unmarried Lovinah FAY, who is also buried in the plot, but I'm inclined towards the first line of descent. My transcription took place only a few months ago, whereas their reading was done presumably before 1992.

Hello, I am wondering about a person named William Fay? My VanPelt family had a wedding in Oakland, CA, in 1888.
