No, Sue, I just meant that if it isn't on line, most people would probably have to go to a library to consult it. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Dear Listers : According to a message posted on the Franklin County ROOTSWEB mailing list in the year 2000, a book containing biographies of citizens of Franklin & Clinton Counties was published in the 1880s (Name of Book ? Author ? ). According to the respondent at that time, this book contained biographies of Col. Thomas Smith & Ephraim Smith. Rev. Ephraim Smith (1783-1863) was my ggg-Grandfather; he may have been the son/ the nephew of Col. Thomas Smith. I would appreciate any information on this family. Sincerely, Tom Brown

You can find MOST of Franklin County's cemeteries online at my web site. There are less than 10 to finish, including: Notre Dame - Malone Evergreen - Chateaugay St. Patrick's - Chateaugay (although you can access burial records at my site) Otis Grave - Malone (a single grave) 1 location of St. Joseph's - Hogansburg Fairview - Dickinson In addition, I plan to update Forest & St. Ann's in Waverly (St. Regis Falls). By the way, I'm looking for volunteers to help with Notre Dame in the spring! We will start in early May and work every day from about 3:30 to 6:30. Longer on weekends!

Could it be Burke? The 'on' could be 'ur' if the article isn't very legible. Burke is about 7 miles from Constable where it said the priest was from. It's also possible that the name of the town has changed since 1897. Have you tried looking for towns that begin with 'B' in a gazetteer from the 1890's?

Since the Priest came from Constable, which, as mentioned, is very close, The town of Burke could well be the place. I grew up in that area. I never heard of a town beginning with B that had only three letters and I seriously doubt if the town changed names. This is an area that has the same roads that existed nearly a century ago. Many of them follow the original roads and, if you wanted to, you could actually chain a lot out based on the highways.
