Try contacting the Niagara County Genealogical Society, the information is on their website: http://www.niagaracounty.org/genealogical_society_home.htm My maternal line Craine, Blackley, and Flanders are from Lockport and have found the volunteers extremely helpful.

The 1840 census shows a Thomas Tobin Living in Lockport. Both he and his wife are in their 20's and two daughters are between 0-10. There are no other children shown. Of course this is a lovely census, so informative. I sus pect he was Irish and born in Ireland. Therefore I am assuming that the family attended a Catholic church. (if they attended at all). I am stymied. Can anyone think of another route to follow to track this man/family. I believe he may be a great great great grandfather. In 1860 there is a Thomas Tobin living in Monroe County, Rochester. There would appear to be two older girls but perhaps a new wife with younger children now showing. Wife #1 may have died and he remarried. I am open to any and all suggestions. Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer.
