Descendants of Ananias Conklin(g) were among the earliest settlers in Rensselaerville which is in the extreme southwest corner of Albany County. They came from East Hampton, Long Island. Daniel Conkling, Sr. was among the earliest. Among other early Conkling names were Daniel Jr., John, Gurdon, David, and Josiah. Some used the Conkling spelling and some used the Conklin spelling.

I asked a researcher I know who is working on some of these lines (not a list member) and I was told that "an Ananias (Conklin) line went to Renssellaerville and a "Pre-1700 Westchester Conklin, I think is more in the Saratoga area. The Wiltse surname is connected to the Pre-1700 Westchester Conklins usually. Lossing is a Dutchess name and all three main lines were there." Donna ----- Original Message ----- From: "Leslie B.

Hello, Malvina was living with her parents in Coxsackie, New York when the 1870 census was taken. On Nov. 15, 1872, Malvina Gregoire and Edmond Perrier had a son Adelbert in Troy, New York (not sure if Albany or Renselaar). So looking for the marriage between 1870 and 1872, and thinking it is in Troy or nearby. Desperately hoping to find this marriage as it has been a brick wall for many years. Thanks so much. Peggy G.

Dear List, Can anyone shed any light on any of the individuals, who were named in the following excerpt from the Minutes of the Commissioners for Conspiracies, which met at Albany on September 18th, 1779. At present I am not sure where these individuals lived. It may have been within the confines of old Albany County (i.e. present day Rensselaer, Saratoga, or Washington Counties) or they may have lived in Dutchess County. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Leslie Potter Glen Mills, PA P.S. any thoughts on how to interpret this 18th century English would also be appreciated.

My Wiliam Simpson lived in Albany for a while but moved to Colonie. He came here about 1873 with wife Janet and 3 children, one more son was born here. He was a widow by 1880. Married my grandma Rose (Mccabe)about 1880-82. Rose died 1887. William never remarried. His parents were William & Agnes (Clint) Simpson. I don't know if they were in this country or not. But I think Roses's parents were and I am sure there were siblings. I haven't had any luck with finding anyone else. Three of my Simpsons were orignally buried in St Mary's then moved to St Agnes. So no connection here. How were you able to get the death notices/obits you mention? I would like to see if I can find Janets and Roses notices in the paper.

The personal information on the death certificate (what there is of it) was provided by the undertaker. He was 47 years of age and employed as a deckhand on a tug boat. His residential address was that of his mother in Johnstown PA. It appears he died suddenly (from cerebral and diabetic causes) or was found in a coma and died shortly thereafter at the hospital. An autopsy was done, and his body was sent back to Johnstown PA for burial. Would anyone be able to check to see if there was an obituary or an article / blurb in an Albany paper about the death of my grandmother's uncle? If found, copying & mailing costs will be reimbursed.
