Hi Marty, When I hit a census problem where the surname could be transcribed in a number of different ways, I then enter the first name and the birth year +/- 5 years and the state of birth and the first few letters of the surname followed by an asterisk ... in the case of this family, I would enter dem* and the other information and see what kind of results I get. Sometimes, if I have the children's names, I will enter the one with the most unusual name, which might yield fewer search results to choose from. Sometimes I put the state and county, sometimes not. Depends on where I think they might be located. Hope this helps.

I had been several years since I looked at the information I had on Harry. What I have cane from his sister in law. She had said she thought he or his family came from NY. The 1920 was not available when I got the information. I looked him up tonight and found he was born in NJ but his father Wilbur P Demilt was born in NY with his parents born MI and NY and his mother Ethel D Wahl Demilt was born in NJ with her parents born NJ and NY. I don't know where in NY as I could not find them in 1900 or 1910 as Demilt, Demelt or Demett. I also tried Demill and others but no luck.

Dear Joan ... I am in Deposit, NY right now... I'll be back in Los Angeles on the 30th and will send you what I have ... John A Aiello

Because some of my ancestors came from Delaware Co., I have scanned through briefly almost all of the many messages that came through to see if a familiar name popped up. Tonight one did when I saw the name SCHOOLCRAFT. My wife's g-g-grandmother was Elizabeth SCHOOLCRAFT ROSE. She was b. July 14, 1807 in Schoharie Co. NY daughter of John ROSE and Rhoda CRIPPEN. Ab't 1837 they came to Columbia Twp. Bradford Co. PA. She had sister Sarah and brothers John and Hiram. She d. Oct. 26, 1898 at age 91. I forgot to mention she m. Justus WOOD Sept. 24, 1824. Seems there must be a connection here. I have her obit and a photo of her.

Glad to hear from you. I didn't see any response to your query. Did anyone contact you direct? I invested in Lynne Miller's book NY Ballards.

It has been some time since I posted anything concerning my g-g-g-grandfather Wilhelm/William ROOS/ROSE. He was born in 1738 in Hesse Cassel, Germany and married Elizabeth SCHOOLCRAFT in 1760 in Schoharie NY. Quite a gap, I know. The Bible says he died in 1819 in Colchester NY. In the book "Centennial History of Delaware Co. NY" it states that William ROSE lived on the west side of the river, below Downsville, near Rock Eddy. It also states that he ran a tub mill above Downsville. I have not been able to find an immigration or naturalization record for him. I do have the names & dates of births of his children. I would like to find an obituary and where he is buried - I realize that may be wishful thinking for that far back, but one can always hope. Any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I really don't want to unsuscribe...can you switch me over to digest version. On a scale of 1-10 this list ranks somewhere about a 2 in my life priorities right now...no doubt once I get retired and have nothing else to do it probably will be an 8 or so... so while I have a passing interest I simply do not have time to read about everybody's aunt Jenny and uncle George.

Ok, now I know a little bit more about MIME, it will work as Gary says BUT if you have AOL forget it. AOL doesn't read MIME, the pages will be blank. There might be a couple of other ISP's with the same problem, but no one mentioned names, only that it is a possibitlity. If wish to change to Digest mode from L mode, you can do so by first sending a new email to UNSUB from the list by writing to NYDELAWA-request@rootsweb.com Next send a new email to NYDELAWA-D-request@rootsweb.com to subscribe in Digest mode with the word subscribe in the subject and message body.

All you have to do is hit reply instead of reply to all, a little bit easier to do and remember. Messages will go back to the list - this way everyone gets to see the messages. Sometimes we get to learn new things, sometimes we will find someone that ties into our family that we hadn't thought about or known about until someone replies back. Plus the fact new people are joining lists every day or browsing the archives - if the information isn't there they lose out, this list is for sharing. Roll Call - we will do a roll call every once in awhile - when the list has been unusually quiet, that is what I will do to pick it up again. From this roll call alone, several have found some links they have been looking for, there are a couple of people that I have yet to reply to, but when I find the time, I most certainly will. Digest vs. Regular mail - I have never used digest, so am unfamiliar with how it works, I have asked the question regarding MIME, as it is not an option that I can find in my administrations tool utility.

And yes, I for one think it would be a good idea to have the photos posted on the Delaware Co. site. The more who have access, the merrier, and the larger our family(ies) will grow:) Kathy bkssfish@aol.com

Hi Cathy, Well, I am happy to see a fellow member of the Margaret's Guild Myfamily website here on the Delaware County website! I had to log on and see if you were there, and sure enough you were. Neat (and huge!) website, isn't it? We are likely related...small world, isn't it:) Kathy (Shaver) Fisher bkssfish@aol.com
