This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Snedecker, Gulick Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/zQB.2ACE/1549.4.1.1 Message Board Post: Sorry it took so long to reply to this. Elizabeth Snedeker Gulick who applied for a tavern license at Rhode Hall in 1814 was my 4-great grandmother. Born at Rhode HallSept 3, 1764, married to James Gulick Feb 3, 1785 and died at Rhode Hall Feb 8th, 1857. A very long life. James Gulick, a veteran of the Revolutionary War, died in 1807. She was a widow in 1807 and her first-born was 20 years old. I have no record of her other children, but Isaac Gulick went to New York and operated a greengrocers shop with Aaron Gulick who may have been a brother. Isaac married a well connected woman named Ellen Patterson Smink. She seems to have inherited farms at Fishkill Landing, up the Hudson River near Poukipsee (spelling!) from the Paterson connection, which made river traffic and vegetables highly profitable. Isaacs three sons could afford to join the company of gentlemen adventurers who chartered the Argaunaugt to sail around the horn to California to see the Gold Rush, John Calbraith Gulick bought farms near Benecia, CA and founded a bank. He also built a pier which he owned with his brother James and which they leased to the US Navy. All this suggests a comfortable affluence as they never went near the gold fields. That Isaacs sons comanded capital in 1850 when they were in their esarly 20s suggests that Isaacs store was a winner, and would, I think, make clear that Elizabeth S. Gulick was well cared for down at Rhode Hall, whether the two-bed tavern prospered or not. As all these Gulicks, myself included, are also Snedeckers, I am at your service for more dates and descendants. Richard Crissman, writing from Mexico.

Some of us, and yes I AM guilty too, are getting a bit sloppy with our subject lines. Below is a good article from the Rootsweb Review. Let's try to remember some of these points when sending messages to the lists and to each other. Thanks and Happy Turkey "stuffing"! Pat Mount List Admin RootsWeb Review: RootsWeb's Weekly E-zine Vol. 6, No. 46, 12 November 2003, Circulation: 941,133+ (c) 1998-2003 RootsWeb.com, Inc. http://www.rootsweb.com/ 1b. Grabbing Your Cousins' Attention When you see a message posed on the mailing lists and message boards with a subject line such as: "HELP!!!" "Searching!" "Looking for "Genealogy!" "Desperate!" and even (no subject) -- what's your reaction? Shrug and move on? We all were newbies once upon a time, but if you want to get the most out of your queries, spruce up your subject lines. For even though you might draft your messages carefully and explain in detail what information you seek -- including the name(s) of the ancestor(s), where the individual or family lived, and a time frame, if your subject line doesn't grab the readers, you won't hear from anyone. The vast majority of browsers and subscribers take roughly one second -- that's right, one second -- to decide whether a message is of interest to them and whether they are going to read further. The decision whether to bypass or read the message is often determined by the subject line alone and not the message content. Digest subscribers (on mailing lists) often scan the subjects of the messages in a digest index to determine whether they are going to scroll through to read the actual messages. Subjects such as the ones listed above, no matter how many exclamation points are added, no matter how urgent your pleas for help, and no matter how many caps are used, do not inform the reader of the message content. They do nothing to "grab" anyone's attention. Experienced researchers often lament that they'd love to help more, but don't have the time to wade through messages that do not contain the foundation of genealogical research: names, dates and places. No one, except a close cousin, really cares how you are related to someone. Save those relationship explanations for private correspondence. A good subject line should provide the reader with information about the message to which it is attached. It should be concise but complete enough to explain who or what the message concerns, the time frame, and the location, if known. Abbreviate only where necessary due to a character limit, such as on the message boards, and remember that this is the Internet and the boards and lists have an international audience. Don't assume your Australian cousins know what you mean with American abbreviations. Add USA, UK, etc. Examples of good subject lines are: --Information sought about Joseph JOHNSON, b. 1862 in Frederick County, Maryland, USA --Census info needed for George HOLTON, 1901, Somerset, England --Peter BURNS m. Olive HAWKINS, 1879, Melbourne, Australia--need parents for both --Susanna, m. Johannes BENDER, Rockingham County, Virginia, USA, 1788--maiden name? --Need date and place of marriage of John SMITH and Sarah JONES-- lived Ohio, USA 1850 The reader will know at a glance if the above messages are of interest to them personally and also if they may have resources that might have the information. A reader who has a book on Ohio marriages in the 1850s may well read the message about John SMITH and Sarah JONES and look for the information even if he is not personally connected to this family. Other important tips about using a meaningful subject subject line are: --If you are replying to a list or board message and the subject of your reply changes from the one in the earlier message(s) in the thread, change/update the subject line accordingly, and --If you are a digest subscriber and replying to a message in a digest, be sure to change the subject to pertain to the actual message to which you are replying rather than leaving the digest name and number as the subject line. The subject line you create for your query is the "hook" that either draws the reader in or sends him on to the next message passing yours by. So, don't cry aimlessly for "HELP!!!!!" -- let the reader know what you are looking for at a glance with a meaningful, concise subject.

I believe they were m. in a Presbyterian Church (her denomination). He was said to be Swedenborgian. After marriage, he had a clothing store in Newark; later had same in Mobile in partnership with F. Mackin. Family lore gives as his parents "John Dickinson and ____________Brinckerhoff," and notes these two d. in "an epidemic," and Charles then was raised by maternal aunts in NYC.

Dear Glen Henkle, I can't tell how great it is to hear you. It is so wonderful to be in contact with a living ancestor of some of South Brunswick Township's past significant people. Receiving your email today is just as I am in the midst of trying to decipher the Schenck genealogy related to the William Scheck's of Cross Roads now Dayton, NJ. I could not find any information about William B. Schenck of Dayton on Ancestry.com of Familysearch, my two mainstays. There is another William B. Schenck who married Catherine M.Vanderveer, but they moved to Onondga (sp)Co., New York., but not of the same direct line as you must be. As you can see below, I have speeded ahead through the recent documents I have printed to get the connections your email made real. All I had so far is local reports of William L. Schenck selling a tavern to his son William B. Schenck. A William B. Schenck showing up on the 1850 Census about 18 years old . This Census record is William L. Schenck age 47, Lydia B (Barricklo) wife 51, William B. Schenck, age 18 and George W. Schenck age 11. Deed where William L. Schenck sells ? to William B. Schenck for land in the Dayton area in 1870 the year William L. Schenck dies. Deed William L. Schenck and Lydia Barricklo for purchase of a tavern from the estate of John Barricklo Estate. Tavern License granted info for William B. Schenck in 1854. But not further information on tavern licenses for him. All this is for research on a still existing building in Dayton, NJ. Probably the oldest building in the immediate area of the small community of Dayton. This building has hopefully been sold to someone who wants to restore it and operate a tavern there. You may already have this information, but I am just bringing it together for myself. After further looking through my notes on the 1850 Census I found Emaline Dean, daughter of Mary Dean in household of William Dean age 24. Also, Cornelius 18, Mary A. 8. Others in household, Samuel Caywood, laborer, 40, ? Walton 17, laborer, Daniel Walton, 12. I am planning a Library program next week and trying to work on all the tavern genealogies. One, part of my research I am just getting to review are the 1850, 60, 70 Census records I have copied to match up with maps of the area. In checking just now I found William B. Schenck on the 1860 Census, so I guess I had more information than I thought. Here it lists William B. Schenck 28, Emeline Schenck 25, with Marietta / Henrietta B. Schenck 6, William S / L. Schenck 1, and William Dean? 16. Now for the 1870 Census, I found William [B.] Schenck 39, wife Emeline 34, Marietta, 16, William 11, Anne 8, Luize? son, 4. One of the disappointments in trying to match our maps with the Census records, is that the names do not match consecutive addresses all the time. And some names have no mention on the maps. The last land transfer of Grantee from Grantor is to William B. Schenck is in 1870. I have not checked William B. Schenck's deeds as Grantor to others. In the "History of Union and Middlesex County" 1882. "Of Barricklo William L. Schenck bought it and kept it about thirty years, and was succeeded by his son, William B. Schenck, who remodeled the building for use as a dwelling and later converted a portion of it into a store...W. B. Schenck kept a store for some years, and was succeeded by J.G. Vanderveer and others. Thomas W. Schenck has had a store in the village about thirty years, during the past few years in the old Barricklo building. George F. Vanderveer has been a merchant there since 1877." Hope I haven't taken too much of your time, but so very grateful to get your information which I can connect to the other Schenck's and explain where he went. My daughter graduated from William and Mary in 1993 and married another graduate.
