    3. Marion and Patricia,   Thank you both for the information you provided. It's a bit challenging to research a family that was not prominent and lived in a small hamlet for perhaps a decade at most, so every detail and possibility helps.   Barbara

    3. If I can add a little to Pat's comment, the name Union Society seemed to move around a bit over time. The first Union Society PO opened in 1825, and was renamed Baileys Four Corners in 1850. Baileys Four Corners was renamed Hensonville in 1853. The second Union Society PO was opened in 1850, and mail services transferred to Windham Centre in 1868. Windham Centre became Windham in 1873. The third Union Society PO was opened in 1870, and renamed Brooksburg in 1912. The Brooksburg PO closed in 1923, and mail services transferred to Windham at that time, later transferred to Hensonville.

    3. Union Society, now called Brooksburg, was a small settlement midway between the hamlets of Windham and East Windham. It got its name from a church in that vicinity (exact location unknown) that was used for worship by people of all denominations. Children would have attended the nearest one-room schoolhouse. The location of church and school records, if they have survived, is unknown. At the height of the tourist industry Union Society had two large boarding houses, Newcomston Park (later the Greek-owned New Olympia Hotel) and Pleasant Home. Today Brooksburg is identified as the intersection of State Route 23 and County Route 65 (aka Brooksburg Road). The only businesses in this vicinity are Frank's Ski Shop, Main Care Energy, and Crystal Pond condominiums, which occupy the old Newscomston Park site. The Greek Orthodox Church sits where David Davis' Pleasant Home once stood. Mail service is out of the Hensonville post office as there aren't enough homes in this part of town to warrant its own office. Patricia Morrow, Windham Town Historian >Are these any resources that might provide information or description of what the 1860 U.S. Census identifies as the "Union Society Post Office" neighborhood of Windham? More specifically, would residents of this section of Windham have attended any particular church or been educated at some specific school that might have records anywhere?

    1. [NYGREENE] Windham's Union Society Post Office neighborhood / families
    2. Barbara Proko
    3. Are these any resources that might provide information or description of  what the 1860 U.S. Census identifies as the "Union Society Post Office" neighborhood of Windham?  More specifically, would residents of this section of Windham have attended any particular church or been educated at some specific school that might have records anywhere?   For the benefit of my children, I am researching my ex-husband's lineage. Among these lines is the family of George and Sarah C. Robertson, who lived in Windham for just a few years, ca. mid-1850s to perhaps early to mid-1860s.  (Note: This George Robertson has no connection whatsoever to the quite prominent George Robertson whose life seems to be well documented in local histories.)   >From the little I glean from the 1860 census, the Union Society P.O. area seems to have been a neighborhood of tradespeople.  If the sequence of families enumerated is any indication of the layout of properties here, the immediate neighborhood comprised the following: Thomas Kearns, blacksmith; George Robertson, cabinet maker; Daniel Jones, cooper; D. (?) Sutton, blacksmith; Nelson Camp, farmer.   The 20 Aug 1860 census cites the following: George, 45, cabinet maker, owns real estate valued at $1,200 and personal estate of $270, b. Nova Scotia; Sarah C., 35, b. New York; Anna M., 16, b. New York, attended school; Mary A., 14, b. New York, attended school; George W., 12, b. New York, attended school; Adelaide V., 9, b. New York, attended school; Charles R., 6, b. New York, attended school; Emma L., 4, b. New York, Jessie E., 1, b. New York.   I'm hoping that this will finally be the year I take a summer research road trip to explore Windham and its resources.  My specific interest in this line is George and Sarah's son George W. Robertson, who in adulthood married Agnes Smith, a descendant of Revolutionary War Lt. Abraham Osborn of New Jersey. A number of Osborn's descendants are in the DAR, but this particular line is not documented.   At this point, I have no idea where the Robertson family lived between 1862 and 1868, or where/when George died. Advertisements for property in Ocean County, NJ, promote it as a healthy place to live, especially for people with respiratory problems. Since Ocean County was also being developed for tourism, it seems that if George was still alive and not ill, he might have found work there as a carpenter/cabinetmaker, just as he did in Greene County and earlier in Brooklyn and his youth in Nova Scotia. On the other hand, Sarah handled the family's real estate transactions in the 1860s, which suggests to me that George was perhaps ill and then died by 1868.   Below is the time line I've compiled for George Robertson and family:    1814/15: George Robertson born in Nova Scotia.   27 Sep 1839: George Robertson, 25, cabinet maker, arrives in New York from Halifax aboard the Schooner Barbara.   1839-44: George Robertson marries New York native Sarah ?  (Possible parents, per Brooklyn directory, could be Thomas and Anna Williams. Later census data identifies an Anna Williams as Sarah's mother, living with the Robertson family. What does Sarah's middle initial C. stand for? It appears consistently with her name.)   1844 approx.: daughter Anna M. Robertson born in New York.   1846 approx.: daughter Mary A. Robertson born in New York.   1848:  “Robertson, George, cabinet maker, 199 Gold,” per 1848 Brooklyn city directory.  Not listed in 1850 or 1859 directories.   1848/49 approx.: son George W. Robertson born in New York.   12 Aug 1850: US Census for Brooklyn Ward 8 lists George, 35, cabinet maker, owns property valued at $400, b. Nova Scotia; Sarah C., 25, b. New York; Anna M., 6, b. New York, attended school; Mary A., 4, b. New York; George W., 1, b. New York.   1851 approx.: daughter Adelaide V. Robertson born in New York.   1854 approx.: son Charles R. Robertson born in New York.   1856 approx.: daughter Emma L. Robertson born in New York.   1859 approx.: daughter Jessie E. Robertson born in New York.   20 Aug 1860: US Census for Windham, Greene County, New York (Union Society Post Office) lists George, 45, cabinet maker, owns real estate valued at $1,200 and personal estate of $270, b. Nova Scotia; Sarah C., 35, b. New York; Anna M., 16, b. New York, attended school; Mary A., 14, b. New York, attended school; George W., 12, b. New York, attended school; Adelaide V., 9, b. New York, attended school; Charles R., 6, b. New York, attended school; Emma L., 4, b. New York, Jessie E., 1, b. New York.   1861 approx.: daughter Ida G. Robertson born in Windham.   2 April 1862: Sarah Robertson, on behalf of George, sells property in Windham.   On April 2, 1862, Sarah C. Robertson (identified as owner and as George's wife) sells 15 acres of this property to a David Davis. It's described as being on the southerly side of the turnpike, abutting that of Eli Parsons, with the boundary line running "west of a little barn opposite and nearly south of the house now occupied by the Robertsons," south to a barn, east to "where the red (???) shop formerly stood," then directly north to the highway, then east along the turnpike more or less to "a wall running north a few feet west of the tavern house now occupied by Peter Jacobs."  North along a wall to the property line of Thomas Kearns, then west to the Goshen road, southeast to property of Daniel Jones (deceased?), then east to the beginning point. A second 5-acre parcel, abutting Kearns, was sold to Thomas B. Holcomb.   (In response to my post a few years ago conceriing this property transfer, town historian Patricia Morrow wrote: "David Davis lived several miles east of Windham Centre, along State Route 23 in the vicinity of Union Society (now called Brooksburg). Goshen Road is located in the hamlet of Hensonville. On this 1867 map of Windham, just to the left of the words "Union Society," you will see property marked D. Davis and P. Jacobs Hotel.http://www.rootsweb.com/~nygreen2/wpeE3.gif)   26 Oct 1868: Sarah Robertson buys property in Bricksburg, Ocean County, New Jersey.  Resident of village of Bricksburgh in Brick Township. For $225, purchases lots on west side of Lexington Avenue between First and Second streets from Bricksburg Land Improvement Company.  (Lots 25-26 of Block 7, frontage on Lexington Avenue.)   17 Aug 1870: US Census for Brick Township, Ocean County, New Jersey (Point Pleasant Post Office) lists Sarah C., 46, dress making, real estate valued at $1,650, personal estate of $150, born in New York; Mary A., 23, dress making; Charles R., 15, at home, attended school; Emma L., 13, at home, attended school; Jessie E., 11, at home, attended school; Ida G., 9, at home, attended school; Anna M. Williams, 65, at home, personal estate of $700; George W. Robertson, 21, painter.  All born in New York.  All children list “father of foreign born.”  (Note: Anna M. Robertson, b. ca. 1844, is not listed.  Unless she died, she is probably married, and could have married while the family resided in Windham.)   11 Jun 1880: US Census for Western District of Brick Township, Ocean County, New Jersey, lists Sarah C., 56, widowed, head of household, keeping house, self/both parents born in New York; Anna Williams, 75, widowed, mother, at home, self/both parents born in New York; Emma Robertson, 23, single, dressmaker,; Jessie Robertson, 21, single, upholstress; Ida G., 19, single, dressmaker, all daughters list self/mother born in New York, father born in Nova Scotia.   Jun 1880: US Census for Camden, New Jersey, Ward 7, 59 Cherry Street, lists George W. Robertson, 29, married, painter, born New York, mother born New York, father born Nova Scotia; Agnes, 25, keeping house, self/parents born New Jersey; Frankie, 5, born New Jersey; Cora, 3, born New Jersey.   1885: New Jersey State Census for Brick Township, Ocean County, lists George W. Robertson, 20-60; Agnes, 20-60; Frank A., 5-10; Cora M., 5-10; Harry H., under 5; Herbert W., under 5. Thanks for any help,   Barbara Proko New Britain, CT

    3. Hi Sylvia, Thank you for asking. They may be shirt-tail relatives--uncles, cousins. My alleged Rev. War ancestor was a Joseph Boughton (Bouton), Sr. "of Danbury, CT", born abt 1740 in Danbury, CT and died aft, Dec 25, 1783, also in Danbury, CT. He had a son, Francis Boughton, 1766-1833, wife, Esther Stowe, Married in 1784, settled in Durham, Greene Co., NY and apparently died there--not sure where buried. I don't see any reference to him on your web page. However, his son, CLARK BOUGHTON (ca. 1789-1865 and his wife, Julia Hyde, b. 1794-95, NY, died-ca. 1855 in WI, lived for a time in Durham,Greenem Co. They and some of their children are listed on your website. Clark helped build the Erie Canal in NY state. They moved to Herkimer Co, NY for awhile then moved to Washington, Co, WI in the late 1840's. Some other children of FRANCIS BOUGHTON are from Greene Co.: Lewis Boughton 1794-1818 Wife, Eleanor Winne (from Cairo) 10 Children Theodocia Boughton1801-1852 Born and married in W. Durham. Married in 1824, to John St. John Elizabeth (Eliza) Boughton 1803-1868, b. W. Durham, Married Chauncey St. John in 1852 and who died in Prattsville, NY, after one year of marrage! Mary Maria (Polly) Boughton 1792-1839 Lived in Oak Hill and Poughkeepsie. She married a Joseph B. Whitman. They had a son, Joseph Whitman who was born in Preston Hollow. He died in East Jewett. There were perhaps others who are listed on your website that may be connected to Francis Boughton I would be interested in any additional information about families connected to the Boughtons of Greene Co.

    3. No, Levi Waldron was Obadiah King's son-in law. Levi's parents were Joseph Waldron and Miriam Blaisdell, they had the Waldron homestead on 100 acres farm in Result. Joseph and his father, James W. Waldron bought the acreage from Miriam's father, Levi Blaisdell, circa 1730.
