Hi Cee, Thanks for the tip, but it was just one sentence in the email, so I decided not to do caps. I really hate yelling, but I know it's helpful when used judicially. If the message was longer I would have used caps. Hope you having a great day.

Here I am again, urging members to stick to the Herkimer and Montgomery Counties topics. Once in a while, we all forget to send a reply to an individual instead of the list -- please double check your "send to" line before pressing that "send" button! Just one bout of forgetfulness can propel the list into the dumps, thereby sidestepping our goal to share genealogical information specific to the Herkimer and Montgomery Counties. As usual, if you have a question regarding this issue, please contact me privately. Kim Branagan NYHERKIM List Owner RootsWeb Donor

thank you so much for posting this website I really appreciate it. Karen Hunter mailto:[email protected]

Just trying to help: IF, you don't place your surnames in CAPS [that is what in this mad day rush they look for, making research much easier]; some viewers won't read them, then your effort will be wasted. To catch the researchers eye, use CAP in both the 'Subj" and the body; only for surnames. Some people when they can't recognize the protocol, won't even bother with reading that posted. CEE : - ))

My mistrake -- I meant the R.U.C. history and Cemetery Records of the Town of Russia. (The Town of Russia once a part of the Town of Norway.) I find neither Easton, or Mabee names in these records. The Russia Union Church, est.before 1818, built a Church 1818, at Russia Corners (still there). I don't think the Church is active now. Much migration from that area to Lewis and Jefferson County ca, 1820 - 1840. The population mingled with adjacent areas of Remsen and Barneveld north and west of the Town of Russia. A bunch of EASTONs found in Depauville Cemetery, Town of Clayton, NY, e.g. Wilbur E., (1818-1866); Town of Pamelia: Charles Easton, 1829-1914. No clue of Mabee family. randy -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Saturday, May 08, 1999 7:14 PM Subject: Re: [NYHERKIM-L] John Mabee, Norway, NY >In a message dated 5/8/99 8:38:53 PM Central Daylight Time, >[email protected] writes: > >> Have you >> checked the Russia Union Church records ? >Randy, > >Thanks.

Randy, Thanks (again) for the information. I do know that Maria Easton's parents were Isaac and Peace Easton (Isaac died sometime in the 1820s. I have found the census records for John, his father Peter (died in 1824), his mother Margaret (died in 1860), and for Isaac and Peace Easton. The Easton family was in Norway (census) from 1800 through 1840. The Peter Mabee family was in Charleston, until he died, then moved to Norway. Margaret's maiden name was Service, and I think she moved to Norway to be near her family. This is kind of strange, because the marriage of John and Maria is the only one that I can not find a record of for all of my ancestors back into the 17th century. Thanks for your help. Steve Mabie

I have set up a genealogy forum for the Shaul family at: http://genforum.genealogy.com/shaul/ -- Patrick A. Shaul e-mail [email protected] Home page http://www.geocities.com/~pashaul

Steve - Is there a possibility that your Mabee's moved to a neighboring township? There is a Town of Ohio just 10 miles or so from Norway. Possibly they moved there first before going to Indiana? There is a small Methodist church in Norway, but from what I heard growing up in the area, the circuit preacher may have done the honors of baptism. Chris Lange

Hi, I am looking for information concerning John Mabee and Maria Easton, who may have been married in Norway, Herkimer County, NY on 7/2/1831. Specifically, I am trying to find out what church (if any) they may have been married in, and where they may have had their 2 children born in Norway (Maria and John Peter, who died in 1837) baptized. I have a copy of the Norway Tidings, and the article on John does not address these areas. One minor note: The Norway Tidings does contain an error in stating that John moved to Ohio and had no living sons. He and Maria moved to Indiana where they had a another daughter and one son (my great-grandfather, also named John Peter) prior to John's death in 1846. Thank you for your help, Steve Mabie

There is a peachy keen genealogy room in the Public Library in Herkimer of major note. They have a computer there complete with e-mail address and some very accomodating personnel.
