My g grandfathers name is George Bates however, he was born in 1856. He died 1-14-1919 at 53 years old. He is buried in Yorkshire, NY. His wife was Mary Abigail Relyea. I don't know much about this family as my grandmother and Edward (one of Georges son's) divorced when mom was young. Any info you have would be appreciated. I guess some of the family is from Angelica NY.

My direct ancestor, James Whiting died 30 Aug 1867 in Yorkshire. He is buried in the McKinstry Cemetery there. His wife, Esther (Hutchins) Whiting died 18 Jan 1872 in Yorkshire and is also buried in the McKinstry Cemetery. I am looking for someone to go to the court house and copy his will and see if he and his wife might have had an obit. I will gladly pay you for your time and expense. Thank you, Brenda Hare Cedar Rapids, Iowa

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/RRB.2ACE/5957.2 Message Board Post: To your reply about Steamburg? Steamburg is in the Town of Cold Springs, as noted from the 1893 Cattaraugus Gazeteer. (page 490) "The NY, PA & Ohio railroad, one of the Erie lines, passes through Cold Spring from East to West, the only Station in the town being "Steamburgh". Page 491 - "The town of Cold Spring was originally covered with the finest growth of pine timber of any town in the county. It has been pre-eminently a lumber town, furnishing for shipment of millions of feet, but the large number of mills have been moved away until now only one remains, that of Morse & Wyman's in Steamburgh." Page 493 - "Steamburgh, a station and postoffice on the N.Y., P&O.R.R. is a thriving village of over 150 inhabitants and contains two general stores, two hotels, a saw and planing-mill, a shoe shop, two blacksmith shops, a meat market, a Union church, town hall, and a physician's office. The first settler on the stie was Eastman Prescott, who came at an early day, but no effort to found a village was made until after the completion of the railroad. Up to that time the village of Cold Spring had become famous as a lumbering center, but with the building of the railroad its principal business interests were diverted to Steamburgh, which gradually assumed a position of considerable importance as a lumber town. The name Steamburgh was applied to the village from the fact that a number of steam mills were situated here and in the vacininty." Page 494 - "The Steamburg Postoffice, the only one in town, was established in March 1860." See: http://www.rootsweb.com/~nycattar/towns/coldsprg.htm which might help you further. Good Hunting!
