And thanks to canis11 who pointed me to the NY state census. From the NYS census from 1855 I was able to find that my William Wilkins was born in Seneca County, NY, we believe 27 Jul 1792. His wife Celinda/Salinda, and children Mary and Luther where born in Livingston Co., NY. We know nothing of Celinda/Salinda's family and maiden name, nor William's parents or siblings. The hunt continues! Anita Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
