There is a memorial on the front lawn of the Schenevus High School dedicated to the residents of the Town of Maryland , NY who answered the call to the colors in WWII. Many have died since then and the rest of us will likely be gone in another ten or twenty years. For genealogical purposes it would be well to consider photographing or copyng the information on such items and posting on the County websites. I have tried to photograph it with all the names and have been unable to do so. I am confident that there are many such evidences across the country, both for WWI, WWII and the several wars since. It would be a help to have such information on the County Web sites, perhaps all in the same category. Just think what a help it would be now if we had something like that for the Revolution, the War of 1812 and the Civil War! Cliff Hayes

I know on one of my lists there is a FISK researcher. Please contact me off list. Elaine

Thanks to everyone who helped with the age of James P. Dickinson, I am now searching for him in Ulster Co, NY. Carol L. Heap

Carol: I would think he is 61 years 4 months 19 days by what you wrote down and that by calculations he was born Aug.30,1821. I may be wrong but it is a quess.

Yes, there is an Ulster Co rootsweb, but not as active as this one.

He was born 23 August 1820. I have a date calculator that converts his death date to his birth date.

I got a "Verified Transscript" from the Registrar of Deaths, City of Poughkeepsie, yesterday. It shows James P. Dickinson - died Jan. 11, 1882, age -04/19/61 next under date of birth it says see age? I have him as born in 1820 so the age may be in month, days & years or something. It does not give any parents names but shows him as born in "New Paltz, Ulster Co.

Does anyone know if any records are available for either of these? Carol L. Heap, FL

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to All. May the year ahead be one of health, peace and many blessings in your lives. We head up to NY from GA for our son's wedding. December 30th. The Church is in Poultney, VT and the reception in Glens Falls. In this past year I am thankful for all the work done by Sylvia and everyone who adds to this site. Without it I would have never connected with my family of the past. I truly appreciate all the work done by everyone and their generous help. I thank all those who personally helped me with information, prayers when we travelled and for my cousin and family during Katrina and mostly for all the thoughts of sympathy when my mother died last Dec. 26th. You are the stars in heaven. Sincerely, Virginia Sanok The Best Gift we can give each other * is the Truth * __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Hello fellow Dutchmen: I just recently came across a couple of Web sites that may be of interest to the Green County bunch. The Danish Emigration Archives at: http://www.emiarch.dk/search.php3?l=en And The Association of European Migration Institutions. http://www.aemi.dk/adr.php My dad was very proud of his "Holland Dutch" heritage and spoke of it often including the fact that the old Mansion House Inn, where he was brought up in West Coxsackie was built from the ballast bricks that the Dutch ships brought over. I think he would be very upset to know that I have traced my "Smith" line back to John Smyth (1558-1612) from Jolly Old England (Stratford On Avon, Warwickshire, England). All kidding aside, he was right about so many of my ancestors that came from the "Holland Dutch" area. I really appreciate all that the people have done in making so much information available to the general public. Best regards, Ray Smith Long Lake, NY

I just found this on "refdesk.com" and thought many of you might be interested. Obituaries101: This site contains listings and links to all the obituary notices supplied online by all the newspapers in the United States. The states are arranged alphabetically with their newspapers listed by name and city. The site also lists prominent deaths for the date, as well as those reported in the Associated Press.

Kim, Garret is also my great-great-great grandfather. My great-great-grandmother was his daughter Minerva Sarah(who married her second cousin, Miles Tulley). I have the most information on them, but have some other information that I have gathered. I don't have a Samuel for them. I got this information from the 1860 and 1870 censuses. They are descendants of Johannes Frederich Tolle and Catherine Burhans who came over from Holland in the 1750/60's. Garret's father was William Tolley, William's father was Hinrich Bartholomaus Tolley who was the oldest child of Johannes Frederich Tolle. I had recently converted to a new PC and haven't gotten around to getting my genealogy stuff organized. Maybe this will give me some motivation. Here is some: Descendants of William Tolley 1 William Tolley Male .. 2 Garret Henry Tolley Born: 1824 Male ..... +Maria Lampman Born: 1823 Female ...... 3 Emma Tolley Born: 1844 Female ...... 3 Leonard Tolley Born: 1846 Male ...... 3 Minerva Sarah Tolley Born: 1848 Died: 1922 Female ......... +Miles Henry Tulley Born: 1848 Died: 1929 Male ...... 3 William Tolley Born: 1850 Male ...... 3 Mary Tolley Born: 1852 Female ......... +John Goodwin Male ...... 3 Annie Tolley Born: 1854 Female ...... 3 Samuel Tolley Born: 1856 Male ...... 3 John Tolley Born: 1860 Male ...... 3 Worthie Tolley Born: 1865 Male Gene Linkoski glinkoski@tampabay.rr.com -----Original Message----- From: Kim Echols [mailto:the5echols@earthlink.net] Sent: Sunday, September 25, 2005 9:11 PM To: NYGREENE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [GREENE COUNTY] LAMPMAN I have a Maria C.
