P.S. 4 was located at corner of Madison Ave. and Ontario St., across from former Vincention HS. The school building also housed Pine Hills Branch of Albany Public Library during the mid to late 1940's, when I attended elementary school there. You suggested an interesting article. Perhaps the web site it references would address the original question: what happened to the dome on this school.

Go to State Library and look in the "Balloting Book.' Most, if not all, Land Bounty Grants are in the Military District. It was out in the western part of the State, where all the Greek-Roman Classical names (Ovid, Seneca, etc.) are. JTravis **************Get trade secrets for amazing burgers.

The Troy Irish Genealogy Website www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs/ has a lengthy article on genealogy research in Troy, New York. To see the article on the website, click on RESOURCES and scroll down to the title heading. Many of the tips covered in the article can be applied to doing research in areas other than Troy. Of particular interest in the article is the section on Troy Deaths and Burials on microfilm at the Troy Library. These Death and Burial records are an important reference for Troy area researchers since many of the entries predate the 1880 New York State law requiring the reporting of deaths. Records start in 1833. Individuals who died outside of Troy are listed IF they were buried in Troy. Some years of these records (1833, 1835, 1839, 1841, 1842, 1845, 1863, 1864, 1881, 1882, 1883, 1885, 1889, 1890) are now available on line. Check out the Rensselaer County NY Genweb site, coordinated by Lin Van Buren, for these records as well as a fantastic amount of genealogy related information on Rensselaer County.

It's OAKEY, no L, although I'm sure that there were mix-ups when other people wrote the name.

On Ancestry.com I found an entry for a Benjamin Oakey from Albany City Directories of around 1820. If anyone is able to look this up for me, I would appreciate details - or any other information about any Oakeys in Albany in the 1800s. I'm chasing a Benjamin Oakey from Swansea, Wales, who disappears from the records around 1800. His great-granddaughter and her husband later emigrated from England and settled in Albany, and I'm wondering if there might be a connection there that would explain their choice of location. Many thanks, Jane

Dear List, As part of its annual teachers' conference, The Institute for Archaeology, History and Education is presenting an historical program on the Battle of Saratoga at the Saratoga Springs Visitor's Center, in Saratoga Springs, NY on the morning of Saturday, May 31, 2008. This program is open to the public. The schedule that the Institute of History, Archaeology, and Education, sent me is at follows: Saturday, May 31, 2008 (9:00 -- 11:30 a.m.) at the Saratoga Springs Visitor Center 9:00 Welcome and Introductions 9:15 "British Strategy: Saratoga and the Reconquest of the American Colonies" ? Ray Raymond, SUNY, United States Military Academy 10:30 "Explaining Defeat Back Home to the Higher-Ups: Burgoyne's Rationale for the British Defeat," Leslie Potter Should you desire additional information on the Institute's Saturday morning program, please contact Dr. Peter Feinman at: Institute of History, Archaeology, and Education PO Box 41 Purchase, NY 10577 914-933-0440 feinmanp@ihare.org <mailto:feinmanp@ihare.org> www.ihare.org <http://www.ihare.org> I am honored to be one of the historians, whom Dr. Feinman asked to participate in this program. Since the program is open to the public, I would like to take this opportunity to extend an invitation to all of the list members to attend. If you can not attend, please know that you were wanted. On a more personal note, I would love to see and meet the fine folks with whom I have been corresponding through these lists for so many years. Additionally, I should add that speaking to large audiences does not scare me, but speaking to a room full of empty room does. So I hope to see you in two weeks at the Saratoga Springs Visitors' Center. Sincerely, Leslie Potter Glen Mills, PA
