Looking for the book "Underground Railroad: From Slavery to Freedom" by Wilber Siebert. In it he lists for Monroe County Asa Anthony, Daniel Anthony,& Mary Anthony as operators on the Underground Railroad. The names from his book are listed at http://www.ugrr.com I am trying to find out what race they are. In the town of Alabama, NY, 1840 census under "Free Persons of Color" I have: ANTHONY, GEORGE one male under age 10 one male 24 to 35 years two females under age 10 two females 24 to 36 years 1850 census ANTHONY George 42 Farm Laborer Mary 40 Eliza 18 Nancy 13 George 11 Cornelia H. 7 Any guesses? I have free persons of color on my 1830 census too. At first I thought they might be Indians living off the Tonawanda Reservation but the names don't go along with the familiar names from there, even historically. Those names are: KNOWER, HENRY two males under 10 years, one male 24 and under 36 years of age one female under 10 years, one female 36 and under 55 years of age SHEALD, ELIJAH one male 24 to under 36 years of age one female under 10 years of age, one female 24 to under 36 years of age -- Cindy Amrhein Town of Alabama Historian in Genesee Co., NY Experience the Town of Alabama in Genesee County, NY. http://www2.pcom.net/cinjod/historian/ APHNYS (Association of Public Historians of New York State) http://www.tier.net/aphnys __________________________________________________________________ Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
