Hi all, My daughter, Abigail, has been building (with a little help and coaching) a New York genealogy site up that has a discussion board. She sure could use some help if anyone wants to add their New York queries and discussion to the board to kick it off. This is her first site and I hope that she will feel encouraged to do more. The URL is http://www.nygenealogy.com Please pass it on to your New York researching friends. Thanks, Bill Cribbs GenealogyBuff.com http://www.genealogybuff.com

Hi, I am looking to touch base with Alma Fairchild. Last wrote in Oct. 2002 with a Hot Mail address. Looking for Golden / Stout relations in Long Is. and New Jersey counties. Ruth in Illinois

Hi Jim, We are up and at 'em again with some new and integrated lines filtering into the GOLDENs of NJ and on. If you read this please send on the info that you have for your side of the family from William's son, Andrew. I got info that he had a daughter, Emily... , not Emly a son. After rereading ALL the letters and notes I have piled up, I figured we needed to get you straightened out in life :-) Thanks, Ruth from ILL. and 2001 correspondence

Saw this book review in the NY Times. Thought it might be of interest to some who love to learn about Victorian Times. Lorraine Iervolino Inside the Victorian Home By Judith Flanders "Are we really that far from the underlying assumptions of domestic life in the Victorian age?" asks Alida Becker, an editor at the Book Review. "This is just one of the questions raised by Judith Flanders's" book, "a nimble compilation of the sort of social history to be found not just in public archives but also in popular novels and advice manuals, private correspondence and newspaper advertisements, arranged in chapters devoted to particular rooms in the typical mid-to-late-19th-century middle-class English household. ... [M]arshaling an array of suggestive details and juicy quotations, she turns us into voyeurs and eavesdroppers, then gives us plenty of room to read between the lines." Through letters and diaries, "we come to understand in a much more immediate way the daily impact of Victorian codes of etiquette, theories of disease, standards of hygiene, fashions in cookery and methods of child-rearing," says Becker. During this era, the "the idea of home" evolved, becoming "a refuge from the outside world. ... The house, in other words, was to become 'an expression of the morality that resided within.' That morality may have been expressed in different terms, but it's hard not to see its shadow stretching into the 21st century."

Robert IRWIN was born 1860 to E.R.IRWIN and C. VANDECAR IRWIN shortly after their ship landed in New York. Does any of this sound familiar to anybody? --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by Declude Virus]

My husband was a direct descendant of Eli Dyckman and Zilpha Fairchild (Parks). Eli was born 1765 and died 8/23/1854. This is the family I am trying to research. Charlotte

Charlotte, A little more information would be helpful. What is the time period, what are their first names, what were the towns/cities they lived in these states? What is the earliest Dyckman you have located so far? I believe the earliest Dyckman in the New World was Cornelius Dyckman b. ca. 1647. He and his family lived for several years in Schenectady and after the 1790 massacre they relocated temporarily at Bergen, NJ, where their son Nicholas was born in 1692. A couple of years later Cornelius Dyckman bought a farm in the Bloomingdale section of Manhattan. This Cornelis and his wife, Jannetie Dircks, had at least 5 sons. Perhaps the ancestors you are searching come down the line from this family. Tell us more.

Dyckman and Dikeman are very common names in the areas that you mentioned, especially in New Amsterdam and New York. You will need more than just a last name to establish any relationships. Do you have any first names? If not, you will have a very difficult time trying to trace a family line.

Searching for my Dyckman ancestors. They went from Connecticut to New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Any info would help. Charlotte
