Some years back George Miller was kind enough to locate information that indicated 107 Kent Ave had a shop on the first floor. I wonder where he found this information. Recently the archives sent me a 1939/1940 tax photo of 107 Kent Ave. I see no indication of a shop therefore wonder if I received the wrong photo. Does anyone have George's email address? I understand that he is no longer at the library. Bill

Is there someone on the list who goes to the Muni. Archives and would be willing to do a search for me In the   Flatbush Ledger for 1886?  I am desperately looking for the registration of my father's birth over 10 years now. I had a search done at the archives by mail but evidently was searching in the wrong area ( Brooklyn, Kings, N.Y.)  and nothing was found on him there. I have been searching in different Indexes, at the LDS Family History near me, where I found his two siblings. But due to the year of his birth, and the changes that occurred,  in where things were recorded at that time I haven't found him. I recently was told to look for him in the Flatbush ledger by one of our listers .   She said that  I might find someone on this list who goes to the archives frequently who would be willing to do a search for me.  Leon Levine,  April 29th 1886  Father John S. Levine... Mother Leila  L. Bauder Levine Midwife..Mary Ritz residing in area of "Old Coney Island Road"  Thank you in advance for any help offers or direction. Eleanor, in Washington State

New York State does not issue Death Certificates for Stillborn babies. You could try the local City Hall or where they would have gone to register births or deaths at that time. I went to my town's local City Hall, Vital Statistic Bureau. and paid for a copy of my twin's death certificate marked "for genealogical purposes only". Cost then was $11.00. Hope this helps. pic

Calvary had what it called "Free Ground". Several of my immigrant ancestors were buried there in addition to more in regular purchased graves. In general, I've found that Calvary can only search if month and year of death are known. However, it never hurts to phone and ask. If the person who answers isn't too busy, they might just widen the search.

You may be dealing with still born deaths. If that is the case they would not be indexed on IGG or GGG. Between 1901 and 1909 the Michalski's of St. Stanislaus Kostka parish in Greenpoint lost two children.

Greeting to all on The List and a request for help. For many years I have searched for the birthplace and birth date of my Grandfather and his parents. I started stumbling around with this in 1984 and I had a pencil. Just in the last year a friend located a civil Marriage Certificate for him and his wife. On June 13 1878 CHARLES E. VALENTINE, 24 b. NYC and his bride, ANN McCLOSKEY b. England 1851, were wed at “St. Lucy - (St. Louis) St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church, 285 Willoghby Ave., in the City of Brooklyn” His birth place is given only as “New York City” and his occupation “Hatter“, address for bride and groom is “94 Skillman” His birth year varies in later census‘s from 1852 to 1856. The marriage certificate provided no further info on his parents other than Father: “CHARLES E., Mother: CATHERINE” >From 1878 forward they lived in Norwalk, CT, had 3 boys and 4 girls and they are buried in St. Mary’s RC Church Cemetery, Norwalk, CT. His 1918 Death Certificate: “Charles E. Valentine, b. Brooklyn, NY 1856. d. 1-21-1918 Norwalk, CT” In the 1870 Census he is listed as CHARLES VALENTINE, 18, b. NY, Occ. “ Hatter.” On the line above him in that 1870 census is a Jesse Caulwell, 20 b. NY, Occ Hatter. It would seem these two boys “probably” came together seeking work in the Norwalk Hat manufacturing centers and they were from the same neighborhood in Brooklyn and are living in a Norwalk, CT rooming house. But I could not find a link. In census listing from 1978 he is always recorded as “b. NY” or “b. Brooklyn. It seems he was born in Brooklyn in 1854. In 1870 he went to Norwalk, CT which was a Hat mfg. City to find work. Probably from time to time he returned to Brooklyn to visit his parents. While in Brooklyn he met Ann McCloskey and fell madly in love with this Auburn haired beauty who had arrived from England in 1875. They decided to marry in o Brooklyn. He then whisked his bride back to Norwalk, CT where they had their first child in 1879, some 11 months after the wedding. Their last son was my father, Francis William Valentine, b. 1889.

You are right, I couldn't put it down May those that love us, love us; and those that don't love us, may God turn their hearts, and if He doesn't turn their hearts, may He turn their ankles so we'll know them by their limp.

FROM BORDERS (online) - "The Island at the Center of the World: The Epic Story of the Forgotten Colony That Shaped America" Author - _Russell Shorto_ (http://www.borders.com/online/store/SearchResults?type=1&contrib=Russell+Sh orto) Hardcover, 400 pages (or Paperback, April 2005) Doubleday Religious Publishing Grou, The April 01, 2004 Description: In a landmark work of history, Russell Shorto presents astonishing information on the founding of our nation and reveals in riveting detail the crucial role of the Dutch in making America what it is today. In the late 1960s, an archivist in the NY State Library made an astounding discovery: 12,000 pages of centuries-old correspondence, court cases, legal contracts, and reports from a forgotten society: the Dutch colony centered on Manhattan, which predated the thirteen "original" American colonies. For the past thirty years scholar Charles Gehring has been translating this trove, which was recently declared a national treasure. Now, Russell Shorto has made use of this vital material to construct a sweeping narrative of Manhattan's founding that gives a startling, fresh perspective on how America began. In an account that blends a novelist's grasp of storytelling with cutting-edge scholarship, The Island At the Center of the World strips Manhattan of its asphalt, bringing us back to a wilderness island -- a hunting ground for Indians, populated by wolves and bears -- that became a prize in the global power struggle between the English and the Dutch. Indeed, Russell Shorto shows that America's founding was not the work of English settlers alone but a result of the clashing of these two seventeenth century powers. In fact, it was Amsterdam -- Europe's most liberal city, with an unusual policy of tolerance and a polyglot society dedicated to free trade -- that became the model for the city of New Amsterdam on Manhattan. While the Puritans of New England were founding a society based on intolerance, on Manhattan the Dutch created a free-trade, upwardly-mobile melting pot that would help shape not only New York, but America. The story moves from the halls of power in London and The Hague to bloody naval encounters on the high seas. The characters in the saga -- the men and women who played a part in Manhattan's founding -- range from the philosopher Rene Descartes to James, the Duke of York, to prostitutes and smugglers. At the heart of the story is a bitter power struggle between two men: Peter Stuyvesant, the autocratic director of the Dutch colony, and a forgotten American hero named Adriaen van der Donck, a maverick, liberal-minded lawyer whose brilliant political gamesmanship, commitment to individual freedom, and exuberant love of his new country would have a lasting impact on the history of this nation. Review - "The Island at the Center of the World ranks among the best books ever written about New Amsterdam, the Dutch settlement on Manhattan that would become New York City. Shorto's prose is deliciously rich and witty, and the story he tells -- drawing heavily on sources that have only recently come to light -- brings one surprise after another. His rediscovery of Adriaen van der Donck, Peter Stuyvesant's nemesis, is fascinating." --Edwin G. Burrows, coauthor of Gotham: A History of New York City to 1898, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for History **************Get the scoop on last night's hottest shows and the live music scene in your area - Check out TourTracker.com!

For those researching their Wicks/Wickes/Weeks/Weekes roots, or if you simply want to learn more about life in New York City at the end of the 18th Century, or if you're simply looking for a good read, I recommend: "The Trial of Levi Weeks" by Estelle Fox Kleiger, Laurel Paperback, March 1991, ppg. 240 (includes Appendix, Notes and Index). (Alternate title: "The Manhattan Well Mystery".) This case has more going on than the OJ trial: 1. It's the first recorded murder trial in New York City and in the U.S.A. 2. The defense is led by BOTH Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr >From the back cover: On December 22, 1799, Gulielma (Elma) Sands, a young woman residing in a Greenwich Street boardinghouse, borrowed a muff from a neighbor, left the house, and disappeared. On Christmas Eve, three young boys playing in Lispenard Meadows found Elma's borrowed muff floating in the Manhattan Well. Nine days later, Elma's body, violently battered, her gown "torn open with great violence" was grappled from the depths. LEVI WEEKS, HER LOVER AND A FELLOW BOARDER, WAS ARRESTED FOR HER MURDER. Did he do it? Would he be convicted? With brilliant suspense and historical accuracy, author Kreiger recreates the sensational trial of Levi Weeks and lets us witness his defense attorneys--Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr--in action ... in a real life murder mystery that is also a unique portrait of America's past.
