DeVoe's, "Deveaux Genealogy." His son, Oscar DeVoe was a printer for the Nyack Journal News. His son, Curtis (my Grandfather) was in charge of the Erie RailRoad. His son, Bob (my dad) was director for the Kroger Company. Me, Timothy, am employed at SYSCO Food Services of Atlanta. William DeVoe was indeed a publisher for one of New York's first 'Penny Newspapers' called the "Jeffersonian." My brothers and I have all the actual publications which are bound in four different books. 1834-1836. William also published another paper called, "Transcripts." I have searched for these publications but to no avail. Any Help? William sold his printing presses to Horace Greeley (publisher of the New York Times) in 1836. Greeley then started a weekly newspaper called the "Jeffersonian" in Albany, New York. William then opened a general store in Tappan, New York and became one of the wealthiest people in that town. His home is now the Tappan Library. Any additional information about my cousins would be greatly appreciated. Email back sometime. Thanks, Your Cousin, Tim DeVoe "TJ3Lauren2@aol.com"
