Has anyone located a Wightman family in Herkimer Co. Probably German Flatts or Herkimer not long after 1790? I am trying to locate the family of Allen and Rhoda Wightman and their children: Aurunah, Rhoda Lathrop, Mary, James, Lucy, George, Abiel, Sarah, Elizabeth, Allen Jr., and Simon. I have dates of their births and deaths but would like to learn.. where did they live, what was their work and what were living conditions like during the area in which they lived there in the Mohawk Valley? Both Allen and Rhoda are buried in Lakeview Cemetery in the village of Skaneateles. Any help appreciated, L.

He lived in Stone Arabia, NY until about 1780, then moved to German Flats, NY. His known children are: 1. HENNRICH, b. 30 June 1770, d. 21 May 1838 in German Flats, NY 2. ANNA EVA, b. 24 Feb 1778 3. DOROTHEA ELIZABETHA, b. 12 May 1782 I suspect that Andreas and Anna Maria Werner had more children than this, but these were the only ones with baptism records in the Lutheran Trinity Church in Stone Arabia, and the Dutch Reformed Church in Herkimer. I would love to hear from anyone who connects with this family. Claudette Darling --part0_920731055_boundary--

Dear Lisa, I am so happy to get your post! I am researching the entire Plastridge family as at this point they all seem to be related. This Herkimer branch is a real puzzle to me. I have documented almost all the family from 1751 to the midd 1900's and I have never heard of any of them in Herkimer Co. I would love any research you would have on your ggg grandfather's sister and her descendents. Do you have any census records on her and Isaac? Really any info at all, any tidbit would be greatly appreciated! I have not done any research in NY up to this point. I see that Isaac died in 1914. How would I get a death cert for him? Are there spaces for his parent's names this early? Thanks so much for your response, I look forward to hearing from you. Kathy Karn

Kathy, I might be able to give you some information on PLASTRIDGE. My ggg-grandfather sister's Margaret STARING married Isaac PLASTRIDGE. I do not have a birthdate for her, but she died 27 Jun 1901 in Mohawk, NY. If this is the same please let me know and I can maybe give you some more info.

Everyone on this list is usually very helpful. Don't let a little petty stuff get you down. I have learned much on this list as well as several others.

so if you are looking for families in these counties after that it is not on the CD. Karen Hunter mailto:[email protected]

As any of you can tell who email me I have my only computer at my business. It is a retail wholesale store and any time I do on genealogy is at best limited. Sometimes when it is very quiet in the store I have more time. Now as to lookups on the Bill Barker CD I want to explain something. There are three county sections on the CD Each county section has a table of contents for the main section only there is no table of contents for the miscellaneous sections. so if you ask me to do a lookup I will have to first look in each county and if there is no main section for that name then I will have to look in the bulk of the section like r-t in Montgomery for instance. That is very time consuming and I honestly don't mind but it could take me a week to check out each request because of my time limitations. I really don't mind doing the lookups at all but it won't be fast. The CD seems to be only compatible with Windows 95 and better and you must have word to read the documents.

Thanks Karen- I do't want to go ahead and purchase something that I can't use. It sounds like the CD may be of help to me, so I will go ahead and purchase it. I appreciate your answer. I guess I sort of came in in the middle of a controversy about someone or something and I was wondering if this is where I wanted to be, but I have alread recieved your thoughtful answer and a request for information from another person. so I guess that I am in the right place after all.

If you are interested in ANGELL, Harriet look in LDS records. She was married to WOOLIVER, Nicholas (no dates per LDS). LDS has them having a daughter Ann Eliza Wooliver b. January 28, 1837 in Herkimer NY. Don't know if this helps but at least you can check further.

PLASTRIDGE, Frank W., 1853-1923, wf. Gertrude ANGELL PLASTRIDGE, Gertrude A. ANGELL, 1853--1893, hus. Frank buried wiith them--Gertrude's parents? ANGELL, Henry J., d. 1881, ae. 57 yr 8 mo, wf. Henrietta A. ANGELL, Henrietta A., d. 1891. ae. 63 yr. 8 mo., hus. Henry J. buried next to each other--possibly sisters? PLASTRIDGE, Cora May, 1880-1898 EVANS, Margaret E.

Awww, come on, Chas., genealogy isn't all blood and thunder. I, too, have Bill's book, it is peachy keen, and I live in the Seattle area.

I know I said I wasn't going to say anything else on this CD but upon closer inspection he has added entries to the Herkimer section on the CD that are not in his book. Karen mailto:[email protected]

Please take it with a light heart. Anyone with the name "Diefendorf" is very hard to offend - not with a name like that -- after decades of travail.
