Based on weekly and monthly reports I get from the search engines.. There are best results to obtain: The BEST Results?? Be mindful - all lists are always "SURNAME, given name" Three best ways with QUOTEMARKS " 1. "Surname, " (put a space after , then ") 2. "Surname, given name" (don't bother to try for middle name (middle names produce poor results) 3. ", Mary" - will work if you are not sure of married name but will produce a LOT of results! 1. Don't bother trying without quotemarks, you get more unwamted results. 2. Don't try county name, just go to the county list and you get more results there. 3. Don't try state name, just go to the state in question and browse. 4. Don't try these words - probate, guardianship, etc. Just go to appropriate sections. You get better results. http://www.sampubco.com/
OK you guys - I would LOVE to do Columbia and Ulster Co - but first I need to be independently wealthy~!~!~ And, I am nowhere near done in Grene County! Still the 3 big cemeteries in Catskill (St. Pat's, Jefferson and Catskill Rural) and almost all of New Baltimore's cemeteries. Been doing these cemeteries for 10 years now. It there an end in sight??? But I love the thought, nonetheless. Thanks for your votes of confidence.

One of the projects that is near and dear to my heart is the cemeteries of the Town of Cairo.

There are 20 cemetery locations in the Town and I have completed the survey, which I will present to the next Cairo Historical Society meeting in November. Also, my plan is to digitize each and every one of the cemeteries, so that we have a full record of the cemetery stones in the Town, at least in the years 2010 -2012, which is how long I expect it to take to finish that part of the project.

Hi folks - just wanted you to know that I am getting the next upload to the Greene County website ready. Shooting for the Monday after Thanksgiving. It's been a really, really, really busy summer. As many of you know I have been working intensively with the Cairo Historical Society. One of the projects that is near and dear to my heart is the cemeteries of the Town of Cairo. (Actually all of them in Greene Co, but I have to start somewhere) My goal is to write a report on the cemeteries that identifies their locations, GPS co-ordinates included, condition, signage needs, etc, with a view to developing a remediation plan, where necessary to reset stones, clean them, place the proper signage in place and ensure that their are caretakers for the cemeteries. There are 20 cemetery locations in the Town and I have completed the survey, which I will present to the next Cairo Historical Society meeting in November. Also, my plan is to digitize each and every one of the cemeteries, so that we have a full record of the cemetery stones in the Town, at least in the years 2010 -2012, which is how long I expect it to take to finish that part of the project. I am happy to announce that full digitization of the following 12 cemeteries is now complete and the Cairo Historical Society will have the photos available.

J., I think the key may be that he served 'engaged as a substitute's for the two Catskill men. It may have been customary to only record records for those whom he substituted for. I suggest that you try that approach in your research, i.e. look at the records of Gen. Schuyler's Militia to see if you can identify the two from Catskill as a starting point. Back then it was perfectly honorable to pay someone to serve in your stead, so they may have gotten the credit for their 'service'. ~ Ron W ~ ----- Original Message ----- From: "J.

Hi, Agree with Sylvia - just want to mention the Pell Research Center in Ticonderoga, down the road from the Fort, as a possible resource. What does DAR have to say? There are 3 Abraham Snyder's mentioned in Ulster County in the Revolution (Heidgard) Are there not other records at Nat Archives re Rev War participants, pension is one, but service is another and as I recall the two had to be asked for separately.

If this is "your" Abraham Snyder, you should be able to elevate his status. http://lincoln.lib.niu.edu/cgi-bin/amarch/getdoc.pl?/var/lib/philologic/databases/amarch/.6844 The Peter Force collection of manuscripts was purchased by the U.S. Govt and it became the nucleus of the Library of Congress collection. I wrote an article about the collection on my Upstate New York Genealogy Blog. http://www.unyg.com/blog/index.php/2008/08/american-archives-the-manuscript-and-book-collection-of-peter-force-1790-1868/ Dick Hillenbrand On Sat, Oct 30, 2010 at 7:35 AM, <genie2@hvc.rr.com> wrote: > Hi, > Agree with Sylvia - just want to mention the Pell Research Center in > Ticonderoga, down the road from the Fort, as a possible resource.

I am amazed that the pension records don't suffice Jean. The criteria to receive a pension for the Rev War was VERY rigorous and it appears there is alot of detail there. You have the proffo in your hands. Berthold Fernow's book is great, but by no means complete. There are 7 Abraham Snyder's in Fernow's book. I would check which companies he was in for each and figure out which locations these companies served in. And then which SENIOR military leader commanded troops for that area. You may then find which Abraham in Fernow's book was at Saratoga. Nonetheless, the pension record should be proof enough. They are being very bureaucratic.

I need a little direction for research and thought someone out there might be able to help me. An ancestor, Abraham Snyder, served in the militia (as a private and sergeant)in the Revolutionary War. We have a copy of his war pension record. (in both PDF format and word if you would like to see it - the original from the National Archives in PDF and I transcribed the test in a word document). He and his family lived in Saugerties in Ulster County. According to his pension record, he served under Col Snyder from Ulster County for a period of time and then "engaged as a substitute" for two men in the town of Catskill where he joined the arm of General Schuyler , served in Fort Ticonderoga and according to his pension record, served at the Battles of Saratoga (he called it Stillwater), and remaining after the surrender to guard prisoners. Despite having this wonderful pension record, his name is not included on the new Battle of Saratoga participants web site that the Heritage Hunters of Saratoga County recently put on line. I was told that the pension records don't have the captain or col. of the company in which he served which they require. They also said he is not listed in "New York in the Revolution" by Berthold Fernow and that since many of the rev. war records were burned years ago that they have no suggestions as to where else I can research to further document Abraham Snyder's military history (and to get him included on their web site). Abraham served in NJ, along the wilderness of the Susquehanna River, at Fort Ticonderoga, at Fort Edward and according to his pension, at what we now call the Battles of Saratoga under General Gates. I sure could use some direction....

I think the agricultural census are on the State census. I have the Saratoga census for all years at the LDS near my home and they are on those at the end of each town.

He was on the census where he lived in Jersey City in June; he had gone up to their farm in Tannersville in the fall and was on that census. Then on Ancestry, I found an agricultural census for that year when he was up there. It was really funny.
