(Rochester, NY) UNION SUN AND ADVERTISER Feb. 3, 1858 --Arrest of a Woman in Genesee County with Poisoning Her Husband and Six Children-- A correspondent of the Democrat, writing from Alabama, Genesee county, 30th, gives the following account of the investigation into a horrible poisoning case which has just come to light in that locality. Some time in July, 1856, Henry HOAG, a respectable citizen of this town died quite suddenly. About six weeks after his death a little daughter five or six years old, died after an illness of only twenty-four hours. Suspension of foul play was suspected by some at the time, but no action was taken in the case. Last spring, an infant child -- born subsequent to Mr. Hoag's death, died after a short illness. Suspicion was again aroused, but nothing was done. Last fall another child, some two years old, died under still more suspicious circumstances. A postmortem examination was had, but the chemist to whom the child's stomach was sent neglected to analyze its contents. But the community had become satisfied that the death of so many members of a family, under such circumstances, required further investigation, and the bodies of all of them were exhumed, and the stomachs of the three first, and a portion of the abdomen of the last secured, and upon analysis, arsenic was found in them all. Suspicion at once pointed to the wife and mother, as the person who administered the poison and she was arrested and is now in our county jail at Batavia, awaiting the action of the Grand Jury which is next week Since her husbands death she has been married again to a man by the name of FRISCH, who lived with her but a short time -- some difficulty having arisen between them. Some years since three other of her children died suddenly with symptoms almost precisely similar to the last ones, and it is inferred that she poisoned them also, from the fact that she confessed that she had poisoned the first one, but that she did it accidentally and through mistake. Altogether this is one of the most horrid cases on record. That a woman would poison her husband may not be incredible, but that a mother would poison deliberately, one after another, six of her own offsprings, seems too inhuman for belief. I will give no opinion of her guilt or innocence, as her case will soon be brought before the proper tribunal for investigation. *** (Note: Her second husband's name was Otto Frisch. He went to a doctor accusing Polly of trying to poison him too. The doctor gave him an antidote and he left right after for parts unknown.) submitted by Cindy Amrhein Town of Alabama Historian Genesee Co., NY ********************** Historian's Page - Alabama, NY http://www2.pcom.net/cinjod/historian/ Experience the town of Alabama in Genesee County, New York.

On 8/6/02 (10:15:49 PM EDT), Bob Goodrich ([email protected]) asked, "Could someone let me know when the area of Oneida County NY., Especially the community of Bridgewater was founded(established). I am looking for the origins of my GGG grandparents" Oneida County was formed in 1798 from part of Herkimer County. Bridgewater is a village (municipal corporation) in the Town of Bridgewater. Neither the village nor the town has its own web site. (I'm including after my name a NYS Geographic Glossary with the NYS definitions of county, city, town, village, hamlet and postal zone.) The Oneida County web site (www.oneidacounty.org) provides the following information on the village and the town: The Village of Bridgewater P.O. Box 396 Bridgewater, New York 13313 tel: 315/822-6769 The Town of Bridgewater P.O. Box 370 Bridgewater, New York 13313 tel: 315/822-6808 Another excellent source of information would be the local library: Bridgewater Free Library 404 Pritchard Ave Bridgewater, NY 13313 tel: 315/822-6475 I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting. L'Shannah Tova & Happy 5763, Walter Greenspan . Cities, Towns, Villages, Hamlets and Postal Zones in New York State New York State is divided into counties. County A county is a municipal corporation, a subdivision of the state, created to perform state functions; a "regional" government. All counties are divided into cities, towns and Indian reservations. City A city is a unique governmental entity with its own special charter. Cities are not sub-divided, except into neighborhoods, which are informal geographic areas. Town A town is a municipal corporation and encompasses all territory within the state except that within cities or Indian reservations. Towns can be sub-divided into villages and hamlets. Village A village is a general purpose municipal corporation formed voluntarily by the residents of an area in one or more towns to provide themselves with municipal services. The pattern of village organization is similar to those of a city. A village is divided into neighborhoods, which are informal geographic areas. Hamlet A hamlet is an unincorporated area in one or more towns that is governed at-large by the town(s) it is in. A hamlet is divided into neighborhoods, which are informal geographic areas. Postal Zone "City" and "Town" A postal zone "City" and "Town" is an administrative district established by the U.S. Postal Service to deliver the mail. Postal zone "City" and "Town" may not (but are encouraged to) conform to municipal or community borders. Thus, postal zone location does not always determine city, village or hamlet location. Please be aware: In many areas of New York State, the problem of non-conforming postal zones leads to a situation where the majority of places have a different community name in their mailing address than the community where that place is actually located.

Could someone let me know when the area of Oneida County NY., Especially the community of Bridgewater was founded(established). I am looking for the origins of my GGG grandparents TIA Bob Goodrich
I'm looking for NEWTON E. DEAN in any/all census records for: 1860, 1870, 1890 Thanks so much, Debbie, CA
I'm looking for census information for: HEMAN DEAN Does anyone have the above census records that could please check on him for me? I know he is on the 1850 census and shown as living in Lancaster, Erie County. Thanks so much! Debbie, CA
You wrote Heman Dean in the message below, but the 1850 census item you reference has Herman Dean. ???? Anyway, there is a Heman H. Dean in Naples Twp., Ontario Co., NY in the 1860 Federal Population Schedule p. 336. There is also a Herman Dean in Steuben Co., Pulteney Twp. NY in the 1860 Fed Pop Sched., p. 017. This shows up on p. 007 of the NY Census. There is a Herman Dean in Kings Co., 19 W. Brooklyn Twp., NY in the 1870 Fed Pop Sched., p. 460. No other references could be found. Hope this helps. --- [email protected] wrote: > I'm looking for census information for: > > HEMAN DEAN > > Does anyone have the above census records that could > please check on him for > me?
