Your shotgun approach is really working. As a sometime gambler here in Las Vegas, NV--I always hoped that I would hit the jackpot. Today, after culling thru the long list of responses, I did with Linda Johnson Slawson's note (below) My line includes Francis and Esther Stowe. My G+father included Clark Boughton, one of the 10 (perhaps more) children of Francis and Esther. I have documentation from Clark to me and their children (some blanks need filling). Clark's wife, Julia (Hyde) and some of her children are mentioned in your (Sylvia's) Greene Co. web site in church enrollees and baptisms (2nd Presbyterian?) Francis's brother Joseph and his wife lived and died in Rensselaer Co. (I have a website that has pictures of their graves). The information she gave about Joseph visiting his brother Francis probably came from the "Boughton-Bouton Family" by James Boughton, 1890 (in the State Library in Albany). After working on the Erie Canal, Clark moved his entire family to Port Washington, WI. in about 1846. They had migrated to Herkimer Co. before that from Greene Co. I'm not sure where Francis and Esther died and where buried. Francis and Joseph's father, Joseph, Sr. was a Revolutionary War Soldier who I used to qualify for the National Society of the Sons of the Revolution. Perhaps Linda Johnson Slawson would like to contact me off-list to compare notes.
