Hi everyone, Thanks for your consideration. But is there a Hartford Ct. Barbour Collection also, and if so, will someone do a look up in it? June B

I seem to have missed what started this Barbour Collection trend, and am even unsure of what it consists of, but, I am looking for the parents of a John Royce b. 1808 in Ny someplace, but married a Susanna Foote who was from Vermont. Her parents are both burried in West Charlotte, their names are Cynthia Sherman and Johnson Foote. If anyone has any info on this line at all I would appreciate the help. I have much info from John and Susanna down. They settled and lived in Pierrepont, St. Lawrence Cty, NY and had the following children: Sherman, who married Marcia Crary, Ardelia who married Lionell Morrill, Calista who married Ira Miles, and Cornelia who married William Parmeter. Thanks! Donna

I have (2) FOOTE lines in my lineage and have found the graves of my direct FOOTE ancestors in the cemetery in Colchester. 1800's are a bit late for my line and I can't help you with that, but have you tried the TAG's (The American Genealogist) magazine. Some issues have lots and lots of FOOTE information. Try you local library and have them search for a library in your system with these books. Good luck and let me know how you do.
