I got a copy of the message you posted on the Berkshire Co., Mass. list although I was not a subscriber. (I am now as I just subscribed). I noticed the marriage info. of my GGG Grandparents, Titus Perry and Phoebe Jadwin. Are you in posession of the list compiled by Elmer I. Shepard in 1943? I haven't been able to find anything on the Jadwin side. I did find the same information on a microfilm several years ago from the Mormon church and it said that the marriage was witnessed by John Jadwin. I have never found anything else about the Jadwins except that she was born in Troy, NY. I was wondering if there were any other marriages of Jadwins on those lists. I do have more information on Isaac Perry and Betsey Galloway of N. Adams, Berkshire County and their children in the very early 1800's Darlene Garrity deegee@humboldt1.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "MARGAREt DAVIS" <SAGEMOM@webtv.net> Source: MABERKSH-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: PERRY > > > Now I can't remember who requested PERRY's in Berkshire Co.

Now I can't remember who requested PERRY's in Berkshire Co. I did find a few of them in "Marriages in New Lebanon, New York, performed by Rev. Silas Churchill 1795-1851 and Ira Hand, Esq.

Hello Peter, I think you will find that researching in Berkshire County, is a most rewarding experience. There are many resources and not the least of which is the Berkshire Anatheum at the Berkshire Library. The Berkshire Family History Association, works closely with all resources and membership is minimul ($12 annually). They have given me many, many hours of their time and I have been able to advance my research much farther, then I ever hoped to expect. Here is the URL, after you read it, go to the bottom and click on BFHA, for more details. Good Luck, Margaret in NV PS, I have been having some difficulty transmitting URL's, so if it doesn't come through, email me privately and I will be happy to send it directly to you.

I was wondering if anyone could help me in my search for Axel Anderson, born in 1856 in Sweden and died April 19, 1929 in Pittsfield, Ma. He had a sister who also lived in Pittsfield, Thekla Maria Melin who died 4/26/1926 in Pittsfield. The only information I have regarding their parents is the name of their father Sander Anderson. Axel's wife may have been Bertha. Any information regarding this family would be greatly appreciated. Joanne Borden

In an article about the Taylor family, it states that my ancestor Phineas Taylor of Sheffield, MA., married Mary Wells who was born in Chester, Conn. about 1756. I have checked the Saybrook Colony records with no success and then found a reference to a Chester, Conn. in Litchfield County. Can anyone give me information about this?

I am looking for information on Alice FULLER, reported to be born in East Lee, Massachusetts in 1875. She was married to Peter O'HARA abt 1894 - probably in Great Barrington. I know that she had two children who were born in Torrington, CT. One was Eliza, born 1898 and a stillborn daughter born 1899. She is shown on the 1900 census in Torrington with her husband, daughter, Eliza, and another child reported to have been born in April 1900. I cannot read the name of the child, but this child is reported to be "male." I was not able to find the birth of that child in Torrington records. Alice is believed to have died in 1902, according to family history, and is buried in Massachusetts. Alice's husband, Peter, is my great-grandfather. I would like to obtain more information about Alice, if possible. Mary Theresa McCombe Yonkers, New York

I just uploaded some extensive changes to our ARNOLD Family website. The highlights of these revisions are 1. added a link,on my home page, to Jane Devlin's website (which is one of the most important sites available for researchers interested in colonial New England), 2. added Dynamic Family Tree which is a Java applet program which works "on the fly". Both our Dutch Colonial database and our "John Arnold's descendant" data base, which includes our Eastern European ancestors, as well as our English Colonial ancestors are presented in this DFT format. It does seem to take a while to load over a dial up connection- please be patient -I feel its worth it for ease of navigating the family trees. The links to our Rootsweb world Connect databases are also still available as in the past. Please feel free to email me directly to let me know what you think, particularly if you have any problems to report. <chukarnold@aol.com> Chuck Arnold British Colonists>ALLEN ARNOLD BEECHER BOSWORTH CONE CURTIS DEMING KIRBY PHELPS SHED SPENCER WAKEMAN >MA>CT>some to Genesee County, NY.

Searching for connections of the following individuals to my Sulter/Sultaire family. Ellis Island Records show a Frederic Sultaire, age 36, Charisse Sultaire, age 29, Leon Sultaire, age 10 and Constance Sultaire, age 8, arriving NY from France on the La Champange on November 13, 1989. Final destination was "to join father in Pittsfield, Mass". Would like to be able to connect these Sultaire's with my Sultaire's that were in Pittsfield already at the time. Certain we are related, very uncommon surname, but need to know how. Also wondering if all the above were children of said father, or was is just Frederic? Meaning Charise was his wife and the two younger ones his children??? Any leads appreciated!
