Dear List, Please forgive my geography question? Admittedly it is off topic. I am going through Peter Wilson Coldham's book, "American Loyalist Claims", and pulling out the names of Albany County, NY Loyalists. Usually the summaries of Loyalists' claims in Coldham's book are detailed enough for me to be able to place these Loyalist son the appropriate list for the Albany County tax district in which they actually lived. However, Isaac Brisco has me stumped. He stated that he lived at Arlington in Albany County, NY and left home in 1777 to serve as a Sargent in the Kings' Rangers. After the Rev War he settled in the Second Twp. of Catarogui in Canada. He claimed the loss of lands; houses; barns and mills. Does anyone know where Arlington was in "old" Albany County, NY. Thank you for your help. Sincerely, Leslie Potter Glen Mills, PA

Could it be Arlington, Vermont? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Leslie B.
