Allen E. Jewitt and Joyce S. Jewitt have done research on Canadians in Erie County. The Family History Library has microfilmed their publications. When you search the FHL catalog for author "JEWITT" under Allen E are the following titles: Adoption's [sic] recorded in Erie County Hall, Buffalo, New York Buffalo, Erie County, N. Y., birth records : Canadian parentage extracts Civil War military discharges & pensions Early Canadian marriages in Erie County, New York, 1840-1890 Early justice of the peace & church marriages, 1877-1880 Early justice of the peace marriages performed in Buffalo, Erie County, N.Y., from 1840-1880 Naturalization records, Canadian extracts Under Joyce S. Jewitt, there are some of these and one more: Some deaths in Erie County, New York, 1863 Perhaps when you search through these you could keep an eye open for anything on William Alexander WEBSTER born 1856 Canada son of William WEBSTER and Mary COLLINS I have him in the 1880 census at 1313 Main St, Buffalo and married 1884 at St Joseph RC to Elizabeth O'NEILL I am trying to find where in Canada he came from and any brothers or sisters.

Is there information on file somewhere about people who came to Erie County from Canada in the 1800s? I'm trying to locate information on the RISLEY or RISLAY family which is listed in the 1850 census at Black Rock but I can't find them after that. Julia Risley is the one that I am searching for information. She married George Waldo Durkee. I have her census information through 1890 at Harmony, Chautauqua County and then not again until 1900 in Minnesota. Thank you for your help! Trish Coos Bay, Oregon
Thank you! I will definitely keep a look out for your names and let you know if I find anything!
