Dear List Members: My name is Julian H. Preisler and I reside in the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia near Washington, DC. I am searching for a person who can take a color photograph of the exterior of Temple B'nai Israel at 127 South Barry Street. I am researching American Synagogue Architecture and am in the process of creating an e-Book on the subject. Photo credit will be given to the photographer both in the research project and upon publication. If anyone can do this for me or knows of someone who is willing to assist, please do get in touch with me. Photographs can be digital (preferred), but I can also accept regular print photographs and can scan them into the database. I have photographs of some of the Jewish temples and synagogues in New york State and would also like to include the one in Olean. I thank you in advance for your help and look forward to hearing from any of you. Sincerely, Mr. Julian H. Preisler Falling Waters, West Virginia [email protected] --------------------------------- Never miss an email again! Yahoo! Toolbar alerts you the instant new Mail arrives. Check it out.

My father's name was Thomas Frank. The only thing I know about my Frank line is that my G-G-Grandfather was George Washington Frank from Ononadago County, New York, born 1830. He married Lucy Lorinda Wait and they lived in Cattarugus County, New York until his death in 1884. He is my roadblock. I can not find his parents. Are any of your Frank's from New York?

In 1850 census, Tompkins Co., Levi and 2nd wife, Sarah, are enumerated with Erastas, Emeline, Frances, Alma(h), and Henry. By 1860 census, Levi and family had moved to Portville, Cattaraugus Co. I think Sarah died in 1869 and is buried in Mount View Cemetery. Levi appears to be remarried in Olean 1870 census and has real estate valued at $5,000, although this Levi is recorded with MA birthplace. A Levi Clark is shown in the Leonard Salsbury home in the Portville 1880 census. Levi's son, Henry, married to Adelle, is in Portville in 1870 census, along with Francis and Alma Brown. Adelle died in 1873 (Mount View Cem) and by 1880 census, Henry is married to Ella and has children Louis, Adell and Levi. The 1900 and 1910 Olean City census has a Henry and Ella with other children, but this Henry's birthplace is Vermont. Then in 1920 I found a Henry and Ella, rig! ht age and birthplace, in Tompkins Co. My connection to this family is through Levi Clark and his first wife, Candace Hathaway, and their daughter, Elizabeth Clark Carver. I would very much appreciate any help on sorting through these Clarks. Thanks, Bonnie Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I have no proof this Lucy is Ezra's daughter, but as Harley and Ezra are listed next to each other in the 1850 and 1860 census, it is highly likely. If so, I can provide much info on Lucy's descendants. I have not been able, however, to find out who Harley's parents were, or if he is related to the Daniel Hillman buried in Elton Cemetery. Harley and Lucy are buried in Bellville Cemetery, New Hudson, Allegany County, NY. My cousin has a charcoal portrait of Lucy. I have not seen it, but she has promised to show it to me when I can arrange a visit. I will take a digital photo and will be happy to share it.

Hi all, I finally have preliminary information pertaining to the 99th consectuative annual PRINCE reunion! Help spread the word, as we normally have 40-70 people attending each year. We'd like to have more than that this year and even more next year! Calling all descendants of Job PRINCE and Rhoda KIBBE! Sunday, August 19, 2007 will be the 99th annual PRINCE reunion! Church service at the Wesley United Methodist Church, 8:30 am, Perrysburg, New York Jonathan PRINCE (Job and Rhoda's son) was one of the trustees of this church. One of his twenty children, John Riley, is buried behind the church. Three miles south of the church is Milks Cemetery, where Jonathan's family tombstone is located. At 10 am, at the Perrysburg Conservation Club, Peckhill Road, Perrysburg, NY the reunion will begin. Bring a dish to pass. Picnic pot luck dinner served at 1 pm.

Diana - >From the Ancestry.com census images: In the 1860 Census for Machias, She is living with Frederick King, age 32, born in Germany, and William, age 3, born in New York. In 1870 Rachel and William are in Yorkshire, Cattaraugus, but the census record is very faint and I can't tell if the head of house is Frederick. He is listed as age 53, and from Prussia. Rachel is from Prussia and aged 32. In Ancestry.com they are indexed as KINGS. I hope this helps.
