Many thanks to all the listers who have helped me with information about the Woolen factory and shoe factory in Auburn NY and my Mooney and Ruane ancestors. It was wonderful to receive so many answers so quickly. I have been away from my computer and still checking email so I hope I have not missed anyone. Best Regards, Sue [email protected]

I have a Dewitt Clinton Gilmore (b. abt 1830) in my tree. His daughter, born in Throopsville, married into my line. Is Dewitt part of your tree? Teresa ([email protected])

Sam: Thanks for your reply. After a lengthy absence, I've decided to allow my NY Irish ancestors to drive me crazy again. Have experienced fantastic luck on my Mother's English side. I will email you personally about one of your cousins recent death. He was my first cousin, so he would have been Aunt Eva's great nephew? Have to brush up on this side again. Still searching for the Irish counties of origin of Rice and McNerney. Thanks, Susan From: "Sam Gilmore" [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Susan, Good to see you still active.

Sam Gilmore Your name is the same as my Great Great grandfather, Samuel Gilmore, Born in Schuyler, Herkimer County January 10, 1804 and married Phoebe Maria Brown Sept 5 1833 and lived in Throop, Fleming and Auburn. He was a physician and an inspector of the Auburn prison. His daughter Jane Elizabeth Gilmore married David Henry Palmer June 25, 1863. David, a Presbyterian minister, and Jane "Jenny" (Gilmore)Palmer lived in Virginia City, NV and Penn Yan, Yates County, New York where David built a Presbyterian Church and finished his life as minister there. Samuel's father John came from county Ulster, Ireland in September 1798 in the same year as the United Irishmen Rebellion which ended in June 1798 with the defeat of the rebels at Vinegar Hill. I do not know if the family was involved in the Rebellion. If any of this rings a bell, I would be happy to exchange data. Michael Palmer Ruddy

Hi all Looking for information on the Thomas Peel family. In NY sometime around 1850's or earlier to 57. Purchased some land in Pepin County, Wisconsin with my GG Grandfather George Brooks in 1857. Trying to figure out what his relationship to my Brooks family was. Family information Thomas Peel b. abt. 1828 wife Ann b. abt. 1833 Children Margaret b. 1857 Rowana b. 1859 Horace b. 1862 Charolette b. 1867 Robert b. 1869 Margaret may have been born in NY but was raised in Wisconsin. Thanks David Paulsen

Has anyone had any luck finding and retrieving baptismal and marriage records from St. Joseph's RCC from 1860s forward? Does anyone know if there is a Church Cemetery on the grounds? Or a record of the graves? I am specifically looking for a marriage record of an Alice McNerney (sp?) and a Michael Rice. Michael and Alice are married and living in Weedsport, in the 1870, Cayuga, Census with their oldest daughter, Mary. I believe I have found Michael in the 1860 Census, single and working as a blacksmith. I just can not prove that it is really him. Any McNerneys (sp?) and Rices from Weedsport? Thanks, Susan Researching in NY: McNERNEY(all spellings) and RICE Weedsport, Cayuga, NY SULLIVAN (Oneida Country) and OSTERMAN (Cayuga)

I have seen her listed both ways: Thirza D. Evans and Thirza Dillingham. I assume she was actually Thirza Dillingham Evans. The Biographical Review of Cayuga County, available on the rootsweb site, has a description of Cyrenus Wheeler Jr. It says that Cyrenus Wheeler Sr was married to Thirza D. Evans, daughter of William Evans and Meribah Dillingham of Berkeley, Bristol County Massachusetts. I do not actually know which one is correct.

Good Afternoon, I recently discovered that there is a record of a Chester Bennett buried in the Dalton Cemetery. The person's email to contact bounced back my inquiry. I need to know more about this man's identity. He may be my gggrandfather who was last heard from in 1865, living in Nunda, Livingston Co., a short distance from the Dalton Cemetery. If anyone has access to this Cemetery's records, I would really appreciate knowing any further information that exists in these records about him. His wife was Ora Olive Bennett, maiden name of Engle. They lived next door to their daughter, Susan Van Riper, in the 1865 state census. 'Hoping to hear from some kind soul... I have sent this to four NY lists, although Livingston Co., may not be covered in each. Thanks...... Lois

Teresa, for what it's worth I have an Isabel(l) Porter from Aberdeen Scotland b. about 1735 married to Thomas Gordon and I thought the same thing about her name not being very Scottish. Apparently it was. Maybe a Spanish royal married in to a Scottish family. I'm also related to the Culvers. Through my Jenkins line, Hannah Culver/Colver. Maybe we're related. Colleen

Hi Rose, Rest assured the [Atwater] cemetery is still there and looking better than ever. It is actually about 3/4 mile east of the church which would be off of the lower left corner of the picture. The Sempronius Baptist Church is still active.

Does anyone have information about this couple? Allen Mosher (b 1825) m. Marion Isabella Wheeler (b. 4/24/1829); she was daughter of Cyrenus Wheeler, Sr. and Thirza D. Evans. They lived in Poplar Ridge and later in Aurora. I believe Allen was a Merchant and later Banker. They had at least one son Avery W. Mosher b. 1855. The couple seems closely tied to my earlier Culver's in Poplar Ridge. I don't know if it was just friendship or if there were any blood ties. What I know is that Marion Isabella's brother Henry Josephus Wheeler (b. 1834) m. Cornelia Culver (b. 1835). Her brother Ozias B. Culver (b. 1846) m. Frances Cornelia White (b. 1849). They named one son Allen Mosher Culver b. 1872, although as far as I know Allen Mosher was just Ozias's sister's brother-in-law. Another son of Ozias and Frances, Coral Case Culver b. 1874 m. Marion Jemina Stevenson Mitchell (prob. born Sennett, 1877, but they moved to Poplar Ridge before 1890). She had a sister Isabella Mitchell b. 1880 (prob Sennett, Cayuga). Only just realized these two sisters were Marion and Isabella, which might be a coincidence or might be in honor of Marion Isabella Wheeler. The Mitchell's were Scottish, so Isabella doesn't seem like the most common Scottish name. Additional details on Allen Mosher and Marion Isabella Wheeler would be appreciated.

Hi Bill & list, Two questions or comments: I opened the small file, saw what I thought might be a church. So opened the larger file hoping it would be worth the wait. (It took 42 minutes to open.) I was hoping that the cemetery would show up. There was a cemetery at Semproinius. Is it no longer in existence? What is the usage today of the building with "double cupolas?" Remember, Bill, that this is a genealogy site. I farmed & still own my farm so I understand & share your concerns but this doesn't seem to be the forum to express the concerns unless you allow me to express some concerns in other areas that I have. Thanks for the photos. I have been waiting for Sempronius to show up since I live in the Midwest. I am a descendent of Robert Niles.

I have a couple of generations of descendants for Allen Mosher, and several generations of ancestors; however, I have very little to offer in the way of stories. Nor do I have much information on Marion Isabella Wheeler. I do show her mother to be Thirza Dillingham. Is Evans her maiden name or was Cyrenus her second husband? Let me know if I can be of help.

<Dear List Members, <I want to say I am sorry for not completing the 1880 Census for Auburn ED # 3 yet. We <had an awful thing happen to my Grandson & family which has delayed any progress being <made with the transcription of the Census. <Grandson & family lost their home & all belongings to the flood that we had on the Esopus <Creek, NY. We have been very busy trying to help him & family get a little sense back to <their lives & needless to say .....> ................................................................... I want to thank each of you that replied either to me directly or via this mailing list. I do appreciate any and all offers for prayers, help, or encouragement. Please keep my Grandson and family in your prayers and should you have any extra cash please donate it to your local volunteer services and/or the Salvation Army, as they were all most helpful - some of the local stores were also great in offering flood victims free merchandise. All of your offers in any form were appreciated and will not be forgotten. I can honestly say, when I read about a disaster that I would be glad that victims were safe, but it isn't until you *see it* or have a *loved one* go through it that you really know just how awful it is. So again, thank you & please support the above mentioned, they all are great! Jan Scholar of Godfrey Memorial Library Volunteer for: Italian Genealogical Group and USGenWeb Census Project
