I was wondering if any body had the names: LAGREE, SAUCIER, SOUCIA, PARENT, RECORE, and CAZA. Thank you? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, March 01, 2000 10:25 PM Subject: NYCLINTO-D Digest V00 #45

Andree, thanks. Are there any listings for Asselin and LaVigne to each other? Can you scan the pages and send them directly to me? I would be grateful for anything. MaryAnn

Sorry, to break in, but I know some Lavigne's (LaVignes) in the Tupper Lake area of New York State. I have sent them some information on the LaVigne families that I have found on the net. His father has done some genealogy on the LaVignes (Lavignes). He once told me that his family was from the Canadian side. Tupper lake is not far from Plattsburg, NY.

Hi Mary Ann, There are lots of listings for Lavigne and Asselin but none under the first names you gave. Regards, Andree

Hi Don, My books cover all catholic marriages and births. If your ancestor came from England he probably was a non-catholic and I have no access to those records. Regards, Andree

Hi Jim. Thanks for the info. Is there any way you could put the LaVignes you know, in touch with me. I wonder if your Lavignes are connected to Rivard? MaryAnn

She said that she didn't mind helping people find information, but she was tired of doing it for nothing, that she felt that they could pay her something. I sent her a check for $25.00 and my gggrandfather's info (that I had on him) and that was the last I ever heard of her. I sent her another letter about 6 months later and told her that if she wasn't going to help me, to please send my check back and again I have heard nothing but "silence." After several attempts, I finally gave up on her. mary

Hi List, Since vital records are impossible to come by for dates before 1881, I have a question for you. I have Lydia FINCH born March 10, 1791. Was she born in Dutchess County, NY or Clinton County? Also, who were her parents? Were they Jeremiah D. FINCH and Abigail RUNDLE? If you can positively answer these questions, what were you able to use for the verification of data? Lydia FINCH married Enos N. HARRIS on Nov. 29, 1810 in Beekmantown, Clinton, NY. They had 12 children including my direct line, James HARRIS, born Nov. 2, 1811. I do not have any documented proof of this line, just what other related family members have been able to help me with. Thanks for any help you can give on shedding some light on Lydia. My next shot will be to write to the town/library Historian. Sue Jones [email protected]

Hello Linda. No, I wasn't aware that N. Lawrence was in St. Lawrence County. In fact, I didn't even know there was a St. Lawrence County. I thought it was in Franklin County. Live and learn eh? So would there be records for m.b.d. for St. Lawrence County? Where is Plattsburgh? Have you been in communication with the LaVignes there? Do you think there could be a connection?

>From the book: The Souvenir Industrial Edition of Plattsburgh 1897 edited and published by W. Lansing & Son, Plattsburgh pages 29 and 30 First Presbyterian Church The First Presbyterian Church entered October 1, on the centennial year of its existence as an organic body, having been organized on the first day of October, 1797, by the Rev. Fredric Halsey. It has stood as a tower of strength in the community ever since. Its history during the past decade, the period this sketch is intended to cover, has not been signalized by any special events. It has held its own with dignity, and continued its course with marked prosperity, especially on financial and benevolent lines. As its stately stone edifice, with its lofty spire, is a conspicuous object of admiration to all the adjacent country, so has it, as a church of Christ, been a spiritual land-mark through all the region 'round about. The pastor and session of the church are expecting to hold a centennial service next October, in commemoration of its adult age. A full history of the church, from its organization, will be given at that time. It has one of the most complete, comfortable and commodious parsonages in Norther New York, furnished with all the modern conveniences for the pastor's family. The pastor's study is under the apse of the church edifice, and with its book-lined walls is as snug a student's retreat as one could wish to find, and where the pastor may be found by those wishing to consult him on spiritual matters. The present membership of the church is about 269 communicants on the roll of active members. During the past thirty-two years the church has had but two settled pastors, Rev. Edwin A. Bulkley, D.D., from 1864 to 1878, and Rev. Joseph Gamble, D.D., from 1880 to the present time. Rev. Arthur J. Waugh served as stated-supply during the interval between the pastorates of Dr. Bulkley and Dr. Gamble. The officers of the church are as follows: Pastor, Rev. Joseph Gamble, D.D; Ruling Elders, R. O. Barber, G. E. Barber, G. H. Beckwith, H. W. Cady, E. N. Jones, Ph. D.; E. G. Moore, T. B. Nichols, M.D.; Deacons, H. S. Johnson, G. E. Barber; Board of Trustees, G. E. Barber, G. H. Beckwith, A. D. Boomhower, E. F. Botsford, H. W. Cady, D. F. Dobie, E. G. Moore, T. B. Nichols, W. C. Watson; President, Hon. Winslow C. Watson; Secretary, E. F. Botsford, Esq,; Assistant Suprintendent, G. E. Barber. Women's Missionary Society, President, Mrs. Joseph Gamble; Vice-President, Mrs. C. E. M. Edwards; Secretary, Mrs. E. S. Dodds; Treasurer, Miss Dora Percy. Willing Hearts Mission Band, President, Mrs. Joseph Gamble; Secretary, Miss Reba Jones; Treasurer, Miss Adeline Martin. Ladies' Aid Society, President, Miss Erminie J. Hall; Vice-President, Miss Edwards; Secretary and Treasurer, Mrs. E. F. Bottsford. Young People's Society Christian Endeavor, President, Paul F. Reynolds; Vice-President, Miss Alberta Boomhower; Recording Secretary, Miss Elizabeth M. Sowles; Treasurer, Mr. Maus Stone. The musical department of the church is under the efficient direction of Mr. Herbert Barber, who, with Mr. W. W. Connaughty, Miss Gertrude Loomis, and Mrs. Earl Bromley, constitute one of the best quartette choirs in this part of the State. Mr. Silas D. Barber presides with grace and efficiency at the organ. The attractiveness and devotion of the church worship is improved by a semi-ritual service, fashioned after the Reformed Church model. The pews are assigned to their holders, but strangers and visitors are cordially welcomed to any seat in the house at all services of the sanctuary.

Andree, Would you have an entry for William Thomas Charity and Mary E. (maiden name unkown) who were possibley married in the Clinton County area circa 1868?
