    3. You bet Clyde - that's our favorite brand!! However back to the cemeteries - Jim, there is a master map at the Vedder that shows an approximate location of cemeteries they have transcribed intheir collection. I have a copy of that, but also additional dots on mine that show cemeteries I have found.

    3. I don't believe that its a bootleg copy, these people have a really high feedback and they are power sellers, they sell a lot of these CD's, if they were bootleg's they would've been shutdown. BUT look at their feedback closeley - the scanned copies aren't that great and there isn't an index. Always, always, always check out sellers feedback on eBay before buying even if you have to spend quite awhile doing it, if they have a few neutrals or negatives it is worth it.

    3. Jim, thanks for the great vote of support! But, I am not infallible. New material pops up from time to time, many of it in provate hands. I always keep my fingers crossed. Yes, the old section of Chestnut Lawn may well be possible - just for you Jim!! :-) Just so everyone knows, if I say transcribed by Sylvia Hasenkopf in June 2004 or whatevber date, that means I walked that cemetery myself and transcribed each stone. If I post a transcription obtained from the DAR or an older transcription from somewhere else, then I will say that is so. And yes, that means I've transcribed over 200 cemeteries myself, here in Greene Co.

    1. RE: [GREENE COUNTY] Cemeteries for transcription 2005
    2. James Brady
    3. Hi Sylvia, I'll defer to your excellent judgement. Like I have a choice, anyway. Thanks for the update on Coxsackie and Athens. I just grabbed my JIMAPCO Greene County map and noticed that it has a cemetery marker for the Peats Bed Rd. cemetery you mentioned. I didn't notice that one when I was last up there. So didn't visit. That would be interesting to see. I'm curious, how do you know that there are cemeteries in Athens that still need to be found? Is there an earlier transcript for them? Is that in the DAR volume of Greene County cemeteries or from the Vedder Library? Beer's History of Greene County? On New Baltimore's Chestnut Lawn Cemetery, yeah, that's a relatively big one. The smaller, older section might be more manageable and more at risk at present than the newer section across the street. A good place to start? And maybe the rest at a later date? Part of the problem for me, and I suspect others, is that I don't always know what I need, or what's available, until someone like you shows me. For instance, the Athens Trinity Episcopal burials are often cryptic. M(r). Clow funeral Feb. 22, 1809. Or funeral July 13, 1824, Mrs. Clow, grandmother of Jacob Clow. Could the Reverend have been, um, a little more specific? And people think we genealogists are obsessive/compulsives? Our ancients seem to be playing mindgames with us. Anyway, I keep finding such tidbits, and the like, without then finding the expected gravestones. And wonder why. Which leads one to hope/believe that there is an overlooked cemetery or family plot somewhere with gravestones. Of course they may have buried without markers, or with uninscribed fieldstones, in a family plot now long forgotten. Oh well. Then again, I remember one plot at Albany Rural Cemetery that had a gravestone with only two names on it. The registrar's records were in excellent shape and I discovered from the burial records that there were actually 10 people interred in a rather large plot. Is there some way, on your website transcripts, to indicate if such burial records are still available for the cemetery and whether or not they have been consulted to create your transcript? Maybe a rating system? This cemetery transcript is copied from such and such a transcript done in such and such a year, but was not verified by a recent survey. This one is based on an older transcript and was personally walked and verified with differnces noted. (Those noted differences are often very useful, particularly when it concerns eroded numerals that are open to interpretation.) This one is the first known full survey. This one includes additional information culled from burial records that wasn't found in the site survey. I'm curious what other listers think. My point being, that if a competent researcher, like Sylvia, tells me clearly that something I want just doesn't exist, then I'll accept that and move on to another way of trying to prove something out.

Jim, thought you'd like to know that there is a very old cemetery in Coxsackie that I'd like to do this year as well, on Peat Beds Rd. - the Earlton Community Cemetery. Except for a few very small cemteteries and the Catholic Cemetery of St. Mary's just outside the village of Coxsackie that would finish up the Town of Coxsackie as well. In terms of Athens - there are 7 small family cemeteries I am trying to locate. These are toughies as they are up in the woods for the most part and usually people don't even know they are there. I;lll likely continue to try to find these. I know where one is now. That would complete Athens as well. Chestnut Lawn?? Jim that's a biggie and right at the Albany border. Perhaps in the fall. I always leave a biggie for my last project.

    3. I would favor any cemeteries in Coeymans and/or New Baltimore. Many of our ancestors arrived via the Coeymans landing then pushed further inland from there. Appreciate your effort Sylvia, glad that you didn't suffer Montezuma's Revenge while on vacation.... They are probly using all bottled water by now.

    3. I just looked at that item on eBay again and noted that it "has been removed by eBay". I'm not sure I've ever seen this designation before on eBay -- anyone know why an item like this would be dealt with by eBay in this way.. Geoff Brown www.betweenthelakes.com
