All I know about Winthroup Cosby is that he resided in or near the village of Essex. As for the Essex Town Records: Town Historian Shirley LaForest and I discussed the subject and agree that it should be done. I offered to scan the complete records and link them to my Essex-Willsborough database but as yet have not gotten approval from the Town Board. For those interested in genealogy: The records are not really of much use unless you are interested in elected officers or the Pathmaster's [Assessors] Reports. George
