I've "rescued" an old photograph of Fred & Minnie WHEELER of Salamanca, New York. The photograph was probably taken in the 1870's with the children appearing to be 6-10 years old at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I believe that they are the children of Alexander WHEELER and Maria FURMAN. Fred WHEELER was b. 8 Mar 1867 in Steamburg, NY and died 20 Mar 1915 and Minnie WHEELER was b. 6 Oct 1868 in Steamburg, NY and married John H. CHAMPLIN on 4 Feb 1896 in Randolph, NY. The family can be traced through the census records as follows: 1870 census of Cold Springs, NY: Alexander WHEELER, age 37, a Railroad Engineer, born NY Maria S.

The first store was opened by Levi GREGORY in 1811. It was situated on the lot now occupied by the Baptist church. “For many years,” says one who knew him well, “he prospered and did a good business. He built and lived in the house now occupied by Hon. C. V. B. BARSE. His store building now forms the rear part of the house known as the residence of Seth WARREN. Some time during the latter part of 1818, GREGORY’s finances became disturbed and after much unavailing effort, the sheriff sought him on a civil process; but GREGORY successfully barricaded himself in his house, and the officer could not get service on him.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RRB.2ACE/5722.1.2 Message Board Post: Hello, thank you for answering my query. I have thought that David Gray was Betseys father and that is all that I have found in Napoli Pioneers. Came there in 1845 other children were: Mary, Nathan, Samuel, George, Joseph, Eliza and Harriet. It states George served as a private in Co. E. 154th N.Y. Volunteers. I have thought but not proved that Eliah Miner was Williams father but cannot connect the dots. Looking at the 1850 census of Napoli I can tell that William is the right age as my William and also see he had a sister Sarah Age 11. Do you know Williams fathers name? I can only guess. Any information is great. Shirley

I'm trying to solve a riddle regarding two Lydia Baileys. One born in Ct, I think, 1786 - 1791 and the other born around 1832 in Cattaraugus. In 1850 I find a Lydia of about 62 as head of household in Dayton with three children including a Lydia of about the right age plus a boarder. The two Lydias are together in the 1855 census in the hh of the younger Lydia's husband, William Hitchcock in Dayton. The elder Lydia is shown as "mother-in-law" and in shown as having lived in Cattaraugus for 30 years (1825). Lydia 2 is shown as having lived there 17 years, so came there when she was 5 years old. Because (based on these age estimates) Lydia 2 was born when Lydia 1 was 40-45 years old, depending on which census you pick, I suspect she may not be a daughter in fact but may have been adopted by her grandmother or aunt, Lydia 1. In such a case Lydia 1 would be her legal mother and hence a mother-in-law, but not a biological mother. I'm therefore looking for clues about at least one male Bailey of Lydia 1's age and/or perhaps a husband-wife of Baileys who could be Lydia 2's parents. My guess is the deaths would be between 1840 and 1850 in or near Dayton. Lydia 1 would have been my GGG grandmother. Thanks for any help. Heath Boyer
