Russia, in the 1810-1830 time period, received many families from Dutchess County,NY. Many of these were from the Town of Dover, including Philleo, Rust, Agard, Roberts and Wolcott families. I am interested in knowing more about their early days in Russia, such as land purchases. What is the county seat for Herkimer, where the early deeds and mortgages hopefully reside? This group included two Revolutionary War pensioners, Enoch Philleo and Abel Rust. Enoch is said to have died "in the cornfield at Russia", but no date is available. This group, through intermarriage, is one large extended family. Is there anyone else interested in these families?
