Surnames: Squires Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YRB.2ACE/1283.1.1 Message Board Post: Thank you for the posting. I do not know much about him. Alonzo Squires is not a very common name, and I found him on a 1870 Census living in NY with wife Julia, Children Bertan, and Ella. I was given information that in 1875 he was living in Schroon Lake, Essex Co. NY, the same as the 1870 Census with wife Julia, and children Burton, and Henry K. I was also given information that he did have a Pa. connection, and very well could be the same man that served in the 81st Pa. This is all that I know. Possibly the Berton, or Burton could be Alberto.

Thank you, everyone, for the help provided in locating information about my deceased friend, Judy Brooks. Through your help I was able to get in touch with her daughter. I will be dropping off the list, now, as my purpose in being here has been satisfied. mrf

Here's the account of Joshua Peck presented by Joseph Peck in his family history. Tree is available at my site, http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~cjohnson . “Joshua Peck, son of Dillavan J. and Serepity (Ripley) Peck was born and raised in Jay, New York. In March of 1869, Joshua and his older brother Alfonzo were issued warrants and ordered to appear in front of Justice Austin Hickock of Jay, New York. A complaint was filed against the boys by Ezra Fairbanks for petty larceny. After hearing the evidence, the court gave judgment against Joshua and Alfonzo for the sum of 5 dollars or imprisonment in the county jail for 20 days, at their option. They both were comitted to prison for 20 days. Their mother, Serepity, and their other brother Alvah were also issued warrants for the same charge but no proof was offered and their case was dismissed. After Joshua’s release from jail he lived a short time with his grandparents Alvah and Dolly Peck. By 1875 he was back with the rest of his family. Joshua joined the United Methodist Church in Jay with his mother and was fully receivd on February 27, 1870. Joshua married Zelida Ann Farnham also known as Ida, about 1877 in Lower Jay. She was the daughter of Thadeus Ford and Cynthia Alena (Holiday) Farnham and was born in Bastard Township, Ontario, Canada on March 6, 1859. Thaddeus and Cynthia had another child, but it died several weeks after birth. Ida’s father Thaddeus, who had enlisted into the 14th Heavy Artillery during the civil War, was severely wounded at the siege of Petersburg, Virginia on June 30, 1864. He was transported by wagon to Lincoln Hospital in Washington, D.C. where he died from his wounds on July 28, 1864 and was laid to rest in Section 13, grave no. 7461 at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia. After the war, Ida’s mother Cynthia married Ruben Milan Peck at Wilmington, New York on October 18, 1868. Reuben was a third cousin to Joshua who was Cynthia’s son-in-law. Cynthia’s marriage to Reuben ended in divorce after 1877. She then married Andrew Felt on April 25, 1906 in Jay, New York. After the death of Andrew, Cynthia was cared for by her daughter until her death sometime after 1921. The only description of her as remembered by family was a crnky old woman in a rocking chair with a shawl over her shoulders who was always smoking a corn cob pipe. They even say that at times it looked as if her nose was touching her chin. Joshua, whose occupation was listed as a common laborer, contracted typhoid fever and was treated by Doctor A.J. Merril between August 18 and September 3, 1891. He died from this disease at 3 pm on Thursday, September 3, 1891. Ida remarried on November 18, 1902 to George M. Burbank in Jay, New York. She purchased property on Peck Hill from her mother Cynthia on June 16, 1919 and lived there until her death on August 21, 1933. The house and land were willed to her children until they sold it after 1946. Her remodeled house is now owned and operated as a business by the Young family of Young Studio and Gallery.” In the 1870 census, he is living with his grandparents Alva and Dolly, and is age 13. For Zelida Ann "Ida" Farnham, I have the following in my database: Listed in 1892 NYS Census as Ida Peck in Jay. This census wasn’t well written, but it appears that she was a servant to a Ripley, a lawyer. Lived near Adoniram Peck. With her were May (Mary?), Julia, Grovernor (? I couldn’t read the name at all), Alva, Louis, Joshua, and Clark. Clark was her brother-in-law. In the 1900 federal census, she was listed as Ida A. Peck in Jay, head of her household. She gave her birthdate as March 1859, her age as 41, and she was widowed. She had had 6 children, all still alive. She and her father were born in Canada, her mother in New York. She reported immigrating in 1865, and had been 35 years in the United States. Her occupation was laundry work. She could read and write, and owned her house free of mortgage. Living with her were Julia, Grover [sic], Alvin, Luois [sic], and Josh [sic]. In the 1920 census, she was listed as Ida Burbanks, head of household, owned a mortgaged home. She was 60, widowed, and she and her parents had been born in Canada. Living with her were son Alvin and daughter Jula [sic] Peck. I'd be glad to have any further referenced information you might have. Carl Johnson

Hi. I just found out a friend of mine (from 15-20 years ago), actually passed away in 1999 (per the SSDI). Since I'd like to track down her obit, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me the likely newspapers I should check if she lived in the Mineville, NY area in 1999. Any suggestions are appreciated. Her name was Judith M. Brooks, 8 Apr. 1945 - 15 May 1999. Thanks! Mary Milwaukee
