On page 3 and 4: "FOREWORD by T.H.J. Napoleon, dominating Europe after the tremendous battle of Austerlitz in 1805, issued decrees declaring the continent closed to British good, and ordered all vessels seized that touched at a British port. England, still master of the seas when Admiral Nelson shattered the combined fleets of France and Spain off Cape Trafalgar in october of the same year, retaliated by seizing all merchant vessels which did not touch at British ports; and in consequence American ocean trade, in 1808-1809, President Madison tried by desperate diplomacy to bride England and France to bid against each other for our trade. It happened at this time that British seamen deserted to the higher paid and better treated American merchantmen [D.S. Muzzey, American History, p. 221]; and England, contemptuous of American naval weakness, exercised the 'right of search' on American vessels to recover her sorely needed seaman. In May 1811, our frigate "President", chasing a British cruiser on which a Massachusetts citizen was impressed, was fired upon by a British sloop of war. American indignation was great. After Governor Harrison of the Northwest Territory had reported British ammunition in the hands of Indians, and Henry Clay's brilliant oratory had stirred great popular excitement, President Madison wrote a fiery message against British outrages, and on June 18, 1812, Congress declared war. The United States was woefully unprepared. The regular army numbers less than seven thousand men, many of them raw recruits. Our fifteen ships had to match England's one thousand. Much went amiss. The commander at Detroit was court martialed and sentenced to death for timid abandonment of his post, and the generals at the other end of Lake Erie fought duels over mutual charges of cowardice instead of advancing against the enemy. Clay had boasted that the Conquest of Canada could be accomplished by a small body of militia, but events proved that except for the victory of Perry's little Lake Erie fleet and Macdonough's brilliant maneuvers on Lake Champlain, we could hardly have been saved from a disastrous British invasion from Canada. Cheered by Perry's famous dispatch, "We have met the enemy and they are ours," Harrison recaptured Detroit, but in August, 1814, a small British force raided Washington and burned the city. Fortunately for us, however, England was principally engaged in fighting France, so that the United States had had time to build a few necessary ships. Though our Navy was still small, the exploits of such frigates as "Old Ironsides" proved the genius of American seamanship, and by a series of surprising triumphs kept the country in a fever of rejoicing. The war was disastrous to American exports, but fortunately our Navy in two years had captured some 2000 British merchantmen, and England, worn by trouble on all sides, signed peach with us at Ghent on Christmas eve, 1814. Such in brief are the facts relating to the War of 1812. Vermont's position as a state bordering both on Lake Champlain and Canada laid her open to especial danger, and made her part in the campaigns particularly important. When British impressment of American seamen had first stirred the nation in 1807, the Vermont Legislature adopted, by a vote of 169 to 1, a resolution which they forward to President Jefferson in 1807, in which they declared: "And we do further for ourselves and our constituents declare that, fearless of the dangers to [which] we may be exposed as a frontier state, we shall be ever ready to obey the call of our common country, whenever it shall be necessary either for the purposes of redress or vengeance." [Vt. Assembly Journal 1807 p. 230.] Jefferson, though not needing the help of Vermonters at the time, replied that their sentiments were 'worthy of their know patriotism.' Again in 1809, after further outrages, the Legislature sent a similar message to President Madison, who received it with equal gratitude. Consequently when Madison issued his proclamation of war, Governor Jonas Galusha and the legislature sustained the government and passed laws immediately to prohibit intercourse with Canada. But is must be understood, that, though Vermonters could be stirred to patriotic fury by British indignities on the high seas, they were not all so eager to see their livelihood endangered by laws forbidding commerce with Canada. In consequence Galusha and the Democratic legislature were opposed in the 1813 elections by the Federalists who succeeded by a hotly contested vote of 112 to 111 in declaring Martin Chittenden as governor - a man who opposed the war. Yet there was no doubt as to the loyalty of the state as a whole." For detailed accounts of Vermonters engaged in battles, see "Spooner's Vermont Journal" of August 5, 1814; and particularly the letter probably written by Lieut. F. A. Sawyer of Burlington in the "Northern Sentinel" of August 19, 1814." Source is "State of Vermont ROSTER of SOLDIERS in the WAR of 1812-14", prepared and published under the direction of Herbert T.

Looking for anything on any Jodoin/Jodway/etc. families most likely in the Ellenburg area of Clinton County around 1880.? Thanks! JB

Looking for anything on any Soucie/Soucy/etc. families most likely in the Ellenburg area of Clinton County around 1880-82.? Family would have arrived sometime in the mid to late 1870's, so most likely wouldn't be on any of the 1870's census records? Thanks! JB

On page 5 <snip> At the outbreak of the war, after Congress had authorized the President to detach and organize 100,000 men for federal service, and the Secretary of War had apportioned 3000 to Vermont, the state promptly responded to the requisition, and Adjutant General David Fay, by command of Governor Galusha, ordered out four regiments of ten companies each, which were in service at Plattsburgh by September, 1812. <snip> On page 6 Within the state [of Vermont] the people were not prepared for war. The northern towns lived in constant fear of Indian incursions from Canada, and many citizens abandoned their houses and farms. Though the fear seems to have been unfounded, a small detachment of troops was stationed at North Troy, and the selectmen of several towns furnished and supported guards for the frontier villages of Troy, Derby and Canaan. On November 6, 1812, the legislature authorized the raising of a volunteer corps of sixty-eight companies (two brigades) for the service of the Federal Government, and by 1814 the entire male population of Vermont-aged from sixteen to sixty-volunteered for service on the occasion of the invasion of Plattsburg, though only those who lived nearby reached Plattsburg in time to engage in the battle. But there were scattering detachments that saw service elsewhere outside the state, principally in the campaign of 1814 on the Niagara frontier; and such men as were in that campaign served in the brigade under the immediate command of General Winfield Scott in the battles of Chippewa Plain and Lundy's Lane, and under Major General Brown in the terrific night battle of Fort Erie, August 15, 1814. For the most part, the Vermonters who served in the Regular Army were in the 11th, 26th, 30th and 31st Infantry. The 11th was organized in 1812, and served for the duration of the war-nearly three years. The other three were organized in the spring of 1813, to serve for one year, though a remnant of the 30th and 31st was in the Battle of Plattsburg in September, 1814. The plan of 1812 campaign was to garrison coast fortifications with local militia together with some Regulars while the main forces invaded Canada from Detroit and Niagara. The Plattsburg army was designed to protect the Vermont and New York frontiers, and therefore, nearly one-half its strength was recruited from Vermont. <snip> On page 7 In November, 1813, a portion of the militia of the third brigade and third division of Vermont militia, under Lieutenant Colonel Luther Dixon, crossed the Lake into New York and put themselves under Hampton's command. But Governor Chittenden, who was opposed to the war in the first place, and who believed that the militia should be employed only within the state 'to suppress insurrections and repel invasions' ordered them to return. But the entire militia was thoroughly disgusted with the Governor's proclamation, and Captain Sanford Gadcomb drew up a reply, signed by all the officers. <snip> Nevertheless the militia returned before their service had expired, and no further notice was taken of the transaction. Without more notable incident the northern campaign of 1813 ended. <snip> On page 8 Through the early months of 1814 there were frequent British marauding expeditions upon the northern frontier, but never did the encounters break into extensive hostilities. On the Lake, however, the war assumed a serious complexion. On May 14th, the British fleet opened fire on the battery at the mouth of Otter Creek, where Commander Macdonough, descending the river with his sloop of war and several galleys, forced the enemy to retreat without losing a man. A few days later Macdonough entered the Lake with his fleet and anchored at Cumberland Bay. At the same time Vermonters were enlisting in the Plattsburg army, attached to the 30th and 31st U.S. Regulars, and on the 11th of September the double battle-on land and water-took place. The ridiculously small and ill-trained land forces astonished the nation and the world by defeating a superior British force; and Commander, now Captain, Macdonough in a naval battle which still ranks as one of the major sea encounters in American history, effectively put an end to the British expectations of success across the American frontier, and thus hastened the treaty of peace which was signed on December 24th of the same year.

In my uncle's writings, he mentions that his family lived in the "large house near the long forge" in Clintonville.. this would be in the late 1800s. I will be in the area later this week, and was wondering if anyone had any ideas as to what street this house may have been located on. Thanks!

According to the Edward DOTY Mayflower Five Generations book (Vol. 11, part 3), Peter(6) Doty was born 6 Dec. 1778 and died in Peru, NY in 1862. His parents were Ormond Doty and Phebe Vail. The place of Peter's birth is not in the Five Generations book, but the Doty Genealogy says it was in S. Wallingford, VT. I have not been able to find it in Vermont vital records. Is anyone familiar with this family? I am descended from his son, Silas, who was married to Mary Ann Corey. I would like to know where and when Peter married his first wife, Hannah Aldrich, and when each of them died, I think in Peru, Clinton Co., NY. His second wife was Maria R. Spencer. I found Peter Doty listed in the 1850 NY census for the town of Saranac, Clinton Co., age 72, in the household of John Ward who appears to have had a wife Mehittable; since Peter and Hannah had a daughter named Mehitabel I think John Ward might be Peter's son-in-law. In 1860 Peter is listed in the NY census in the town of Peru in the household of Peter Staves, age 31, b. NY (well, that's what it looks like, but I'm betting it was Stover, as also in the household is a Lucy Staves, born VT, age 57, housekeeper. According to the Doty Gen., Peter had a daughter Lucy who was married to an Abraham Stover. In this census, Peter Doty is listed as age 83. In both 1850 and 1860 he is listed as born in New York. Hope someone can help me! Joann Nichols

Hi Jackie, I wasn't sure which city. I remembered Riverside cemetery. Oh well. Hope you find a nice person who will find your relatives. Good luck.

Hello members, About a week ago, someone asked about Riverside Cemetery in New York. I'm not sure which list sent the email. Either it was for "Clinton County" or a Cemetery list. There is a website for Riverside Cemetery in Gouverneur, NY which has a complete inventory and headstone photos by Anne M. Cady. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~stlawgen/CEMETERY/GRiverside/GRiversi de.HTM I hope whoever was searching for their ancesters can find them on this site. Good Luck. Roberta Cyr Springfield, MA

Researching the family of George Deslaurers (DELORIER) and wife Olive. Their daughter Delia married William A. CLINGMAN.Another daughter Sara married Edward A. CONNELL; daughter Caroline married a W.G. QUINN. Virginia Delorier married William ANDREWS - he died in 1924 - believe she died between 1895-1900. I believe they may be buried at Riverside as they have a son George buried there. I would like to find someone to research at Riverside Cemetery and at St. Peters for me - to take digital photos and to obtain complete death dates on several family members from the cemetery office as only the year is given on some tombstones.

Thanks to everyone who has responded to my inquiry about Burke. I am about to write up all I've learned about this branch of my family, but I thought it would be worth one more sweep to see if I could find any more information before I do so. Here's my problem: I'm looking for a woman named Jerusha MEIGS. Her husband Felix MEIGS (1735-1803) lived in Branford or Guilford, CT; I don't know where Jerusha came from or where or when they were married. They had three daughters, Mindwell, Sylvia and Marina, and one son, Samuel. So far, nobody has ever been able to find Jerusha's maiden name, and that is what I'm trying to find. Felix and Jerusha lived and moved with their daughter Sylvia and her husband, Stephen COOK, through most of the COOK's married life, until the MEIGS's respective deaths. Stephen COOK came from Wallingford, Connecticut. He died in 1829 and is buried, quite prominently, in the Burke Center cemetery. I have seen and photographed his grave. Jerusha died, I believe, between 1810 and 1820. On the 1810 census, there are two old ladies in Stephen COOK's household; on the 1820 census, there is only one. I know Sylvia died in 1849 in Adams Basin, NY and is buried there; her tombstone can be seen, according to a member of the local historical society who found it for me. It seems probable, therefore, that the older woman who dropped off the census between 1810 and 1820 was Jerusha, and she probably died. That would fit with the extremely tentative birth date I have for her of 1740; she would then have been in her seventies at the time of her death. It seemed logical to me to look first for Jerusha in the Burke Center cemetery, since I thought that Sylvia probably would have buried Stephen beside or near her mother; but if Jerusha is in Burke Center, she has no marker. Therefore, I am hoping to find early paper records of that cemetery or others, which might record Jerusha's burial and, please God, her maiden name. It would be nice to find her grave, but what I really hope for is that there would be some record of her, and that her maiden name would be on it. I have been given a few leads to follow up to see if there is any information on her in cemetery records. The only other thing I can think of is that Jerusha may be buried somewhere on the former COOK property in Burke. On page 49 of my copy of "Chateaugay, NY and the War of 1812" by John A. Bilow, there is a map of Franklin County in 1813, which shows a location marked "Cook's" which may or may not be Stephen COOK's farm. But if Jerusha was buried there, it seems even less likely that the grave would be marked, even if its location could be found. I have checked Stephen COOK's will; there is no mention of Jerusha, and I didn't expect there would be (I'm grasping at straws, you see!). I do not know whether Sylvia left a will; if I recall correctly she inherited the farm from Stephen, but she may have signed it over to one of her sons before her death, in which case she probably would not have had a will. I don't imagine she would have mentioned her mother in it, anyway, but you never know. One COOK daughter, Anna, married a man named Charles BLAKE. They lived in Plattsburgh, and they and their three children - all of whom died unmarried and without issue - are buried in Riverside Cemetery in Plattsburgh. I have so far had no luck in trying to trace other COOK children; maybe one of them has a family bible, or some other record of Jerusha's name. The entire COOK family apparently stayed pretty much together, moving, over the years, from Connecticut through Massachusetts into Vermont, where Felix MEIGS died, and on into New York State, right up until Stephen's death (even the married sons moved with the family and settled nearby). Considering that the COOKs had twelve biological children and one adopted one, this was quite a feat. But it looks as if, immediately after Stephen's death, the whole family just flew to pieces, dispersed to Ohio and other places, and left no member of the family in Franklin County, though Sylvia lived in Plattsburgh for a time, probably with Anna. No descendants live in the county at this time as far as I can tell; nobody has responded to my inquiries. I greatly appreciate the help and ideas I have already received from people on these lists, and I am following up on those leads. I will also welcome any other ideas anyone may give me (or any indication of where I might have gone wrong) which might help me find Jerusha's maiden name. It would be tragic to find that, after all the babysitting, all the diaper changing, all the laundry and other household tasks that woman must have performed, nobody even cared enough to write down her name. I'd like to find it and give her the recognition she deserves. Thank you all again - Edie in Maine

I have a Rose Jourdanier marrying George Tourangeau in Keesville. Does anyone know what variabl surnames might also stand for jourdanier. I can not even find them on the 1880 census. Bill
