I am Glenda Subyak, I am coordinator for the New York State & Monroe Co. Newspaper-Abstracts list. I live in Rochester, Monroe Co., N.Y. I have been submitting my county newspaper to the list for about a year. Many people have e-mailed me about finding a lost grandfather – etc. in the newspaper articles that I have submitted as we all are after one goal, find our ancestors, right!!!!!!! Can I invite all (some) of you to submit one - two or as many newspaper articles, from your own county collection of newspapers. Maybe even volunteer to be coordinator for your county. Let’s see if we can get every county on the map of N. Y. to have been filled in submitting some articles - obits - birth - marriages - any articles. Just make copies from old newspapers from film 1800's up to 1922 transcribe them & submit them to the site - very easy. Your county has NO submissions listed yet (other than the one I submitted). Please be the first to submit something, none too small, none too large. You can check out my submissions, from this URL http://www.newspaperabstracts.com/ny/monroe.html The Newspaper-Abstracts site is http://www.newspaperabstracts.com In a message dated 2/26/2009 9:54:12 P.M.

Rensselaerville had a highly active and developed social structure during that time; there's got to be a wealth of "brevities" out there somewhere! The Albany Argus? Any others? Something from Greene County? The Knowersville/Altamont Enterprise issues online are pretty sketchy for Rensselaerville/Lake Myosotis/etc. until perhaps the 1920s. I'd like to find items mentioning the Rensselaerville Gossmans. Frances Gossman Shufelt shows up in a few issues of the Enterprise. However, I'd really like something from the 1800s up to 1920. TIA!
