Yes, there IS STILL A FRANKLIN, and like most such communities in New York, it is NOT in the county of the same name. It's on route 357 in Delaware County, between Leonta and Bartlett Hollow, up the road from East Sidney. DO NOT BLINK! There's also a Franklin Depot not far from there.

Isn't there, or wasn't there, a Franklin in Delaware County? It's referred to in Janet FOLEY's "Earl;y Settlers of New York State" vol 1, p 651. And there's a Franklinville in Cattaraugus according to my Rand-McNally. Edie in Maine

Cindy, Apologies if you already have this info, but for the years you indicated the State should have the records too. The website below has forms for genealogists to use to request vital records. I think that maybe you can make the request online, but there is a small fee. Apparently, there's nothing held from before 1880 and not always something available until later a few years later than 1880. Regrds, Steve http://www.health.state.ny.us/nysdoh/consumer/vr.htm
Hi Cindy, I don't know the answer to you question but because this list is fairly inactive and don't want to leave you just hanging, I thought I'd send you this web site...as the folks on this site have been very helpful to me...maybe an e-mail to them would get that info.. <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyfrankl/">Franklin County, New York</A> Sally Sally Smith White

Hello Everyone, I have started a new mailing list and for anyone searching for Orphans or Orphanages in New York state, I would like to invite you to join me. I thought maybe it might be a little easier to search for an orphanage or, possibly, locate someone who might have been in an orphanage in New York State if we had a designated place to meet. Some of my family was in St Joseph's Orphanage in St Lawrence County and I have some limited information on them and at least one PARTIAL census information on another in that area. Anyone that has or is looking for information in that area of interest is encouraged to join our list and lets see if we can help one another. Thanks, Rikki http://www.prosserhome.homestead.com
Could SKS look in the BRUSHTON newspaper(if there was one at that time) to see if there was a marriage announcement of KATHERINE LOUISE PROCTOR TO FREDERICK SNYDER JULY 16,1914. ANY information on this couple will be most helpful. Thanks
Good morning to all who are researching Franklin County NY. I am a new subscriber and this is my first posting. I am trying to connect some of the Boudrea's who are listed as being married in Malone, Franklin Co., by Rev. Ashbel Parmelee, to my Boudreau's. Just wondering if anyone has any info that I could use? Here is what I have so far: John N. BOUDREAU b. 1880's? Malone, Franklin Co NY, married Ellen Ricford [Richford?] She was born in Providence, Providence Co RI. They were living in Westerly RI in the later part of 1940's Can anyone shed any light on the above? I'd really appreciate it a lot.! Freddie B. Stewart in Charlton, Massachusetts
fast-spreading e-mail worm, possibly from Japan, is encircling the globe and flooding e-mail servers with excessive messages. Fbound (w32.fbound.c@mm, also known as Zircon.C, DotJayPee, Fbound.b) is 12,288 bytes in length, and, unlike other recent worms, does not install itself on the infected machine but instead runs from memory. Mac and Linux users are not affected. Fbound is capable of sending large amounts of e-mail but does not damage or delete files on the infected computer. Because of the increasing reports of this worm around the world, Fbound currently ranks a 6 on the ZDNet Virus Meter. How it works Fbound arrives by e-mail with the subject line "Important." If the recipient's computer language is set to Japanese or if the recipient's e-mail address ends with .jp, the subject line is chosen from 16 Japanese-language subject lines contained within the worm. There is no body text associated with this worm. The attached file is named patch.exe. If the attached file is opened, Fbound locates the infected user's SMTP server and e-mail address. Then the virus loads itself into memory and sends copies of itself to addresses found in the Windows Address Book. Unlike many worms, Fbound doesn't install itself on an infected computer, nor does it add or change any registry files. Once the worm has been run, it will not run again. Because Fbound encodes all of its code into one line and does not comply with SMTP encoding, it may sometimes bounce e-mails it sends or arrive as a noninfectious e-mail. Code within Fbound contains the following message: "I-Worm.Japanize." Prevention Users of Microsoft Outlook 2002 and users of Outlook 2000 who have installed the Security Update should be safe from the attached EXE file in Fbound. Users who have not upgraded to Outlook 2002 or who have not installed the Security Update for Outlook 2000 should do so. In general, do not open e-mail attachments without first saving them to hard disk and scanning them with updated antivirus software. Contact your antivirus vendor to obtain the most current antivirus signature files that include Fbound. Removal Almost all of the antivirus software companies have updated their signature files to include this worm. This will stop the infection upon contact and in some cases will remove an active infection from your system. For more information, see Central Command, Computer Associates, F-Secure, Kaspersky (known here as Ziron.c),McAfee, Norman, Panda, Sophos, Symantec (known as Dotjaypee), and Trend Micro (known here as Fbound.b).
THANK YOU to all who so kindly provided help with the cemetery identifications for Churubusco. I learned a lot about the area in a very short time. It's great to have so many knowledgeable and helpful people on the list. David in Scarborough ON
Churubusco lies in the town of Clinton, Clinton County, New York. McClellan's index to cemeteries in Clinton County is available online at http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyclinto/ If you find the surname you are looking for, the site gives directions as to how to proceed from there. Joyce
This message is being posted for John E. Bell, great-great-grandson of Henry Albert Lamountain, 1851-1912, and Jessie Bertha Wehr, 1851-1927. John would like to hear from others researching this family. His address is P.O. Box 402, Poland, NY, 13431.
Hello listers, I'm new to this list and would appreciate some info about burial grounds in Churubusco. Hope someone can help. What burial grounds are there? and are monument listings available......either on a website, or by personal lookup? Would really appreciate some direction. Thank you...........................David in Scarborough ON
Good Morning, Folks. In the event that anyone would like to, I've created a page showing how to "grab" a full page image from the Ellis Island site. If you just try to print the image from your browser, you only get a part of the image. This will show you how to get the image, import it into your graphics program and then get just what you want, be it the full page, or just a full line from the page. http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohcagg/ellisisland/grab.html If anyone has any problems, please contact me privately and I'll try to help you with doing this. Hope this helps!! Lorraine
The Canadian National Archives is looking for input on making their holdings more accessible. They have posted a questionnaire @ http://accessible.archives.ca/01/11_e.html The ending date for this is March 1, 2002
Hi Bobbi, If the Gowin ancestors were from Canada I strongly suspect you are looking for the name Gouin. You see the ou sound in French is the w sound in English, so once they reach the US, they are probably illiterate, their name "sounds" like there's a w in it so it is spelled phonetically Gwin, Gowin. They all did this just to confuse their descendants who became genealogists!!! Andree
