Just curious. Have a letter written in abt. 1908. It mentions having cloth to make waists for my grandfather. Would this mean shirts or pants? Sarah

Maybe Josh could try a search at the history channel web site and find something on it. Also there is a pretty cool site called newspaperarchive.com You can get a free membership and search for articles on it. Free membership doesn't allow you to search in the page itself, but that doesn't bother me. I look at the whole image of the newspaper page just fine. You need the DjVu Plug in but you can download it right from their site. I found a bunch of articles in the NY Times on the next murder story my friend and I are writing from the 1880s. -- 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.

My g.uncle tells me that she lost many friends in that incident, and because of that, she became a communist. She would have been about 20 at that time and a recent immigrant from Ukraine.

I vaguely remember reading that there is something that can be looked at in only NYC and Albany. Is it a death index? I might get a chance to go to Albany, and would like to be reminded of what research I can do there that we can't get easily by mail. Any suggestions? Nancy

Still looking for leads on my g grandfather purported to be David Samuel Clark. My grandfather Franklin Homer Clark b. NY 1850 - 1857 stated in the 1920 census while living in Warsaw, NY that his father was from MA. David believed to have married a Lucy A (also a Clark if records are correct). Frank was living apart from his second wife, Elizabeth Louise Frank (Green) a widow he married in 1897, and their children in 1920. He died later that year. Judy
