Greetings, if you don't find what you need on the Dutchess Co site that has some Quaker records online, you order microfilm of each of the Quaker monthly meeting records? of that area from any LDS family history center in your area...start with the Oblong M.M. of Dutchess Co. and go out from there. They are very hard to read, have a good pair of glasses or a? magnifying glass handy. You will need it. That is how we found our Margaret Jenkins. Married out of Unity and was disowned by the Oblong M. M. in 1789. We now think she may have married in St. Albins VT instead of Dutchess county based on her father being in St. Albins in 1788, 1789, 1790. All we know for sure is she married abt 1788 as dau. Margaret was. b. abt. 1789. fran in mi -----Original Message----- From: cheap@simon.com To: nydutche@rootsweb.com Sent: Wed, 23 Jan 2008 4:37 pm Subject: Re: [NYDUTCHE] Quakers in Duchess Co,NY Charlotte, "A suggestion to all of you researching in Duchess county--whether or not they were Quaker, and especially if you are not familiar with Duchess Co. reference books---Look for copies of the several VOLUMES of ' SETTLERS of the BEEKMAN PATENT' by DOHERTY, Frank J.. Vol.1 was pub. in 1990. I think Mr. Doherty is now on Vol. 6 or 7. This man will be or is already --a Duchess Co. HERO." Are you saying that many of the people in Beekman Patent were Quakers? I have 2 people buried in "The Friends cemetery" in Dutchess. Elizabeth & John DICKINSON, John died 1845 any suggestions on how to search for Quaker info for someone who has never had a Quaker in the family tree before? Thanks, Carol L.
