Louise A Haskell was born in Newport, Herkimer Co on 23 Aug 1832 according to her obituary in 1891 in Rockford, IL. She married Daniel (Dan) Post, probably in Herkimer Co 29 Nov 1849. I'm looking for her parents and also a marriage record. On the 1830 Census Index for Newport, Herkimer Co, I've found the following Haskells: Comfort, Hezekiah, John, Rensalaer & Russell. These are portential fathers. Does this look familiar to anyone? I hope! Many thanks, Nancy St ephenson Guenther nguenther@mindspring.com

Nancy, I have looked for SAMUEL POST, b.ca. 1813, d.ca. 1848, m. 1836 to Eliza Devendorff, both from the Town of Danube. I find the POST trail scarce, but if you find a clue, will you let me know? I find a Daniel Post born ca. 1936, Montgomery County. HASKELLs must be rare, too. Here are three HASKELLs bur. in Woodin Corners and Cold Brook (Rte 90) Cemetery, Town of Russia: DORCAS, 1837 - 1910 w/o Warren J. D. 1852 - 1894 (prob. a child.) WARREN 1835 - 1896. As the Town of Russia was once a part of the Town of Norway, perhaps they are part of the family Louise belonged to. One other bit - A daughter of Keziah (Haskell) Brooks (mother of): Aurel Brooks. Aurel b. 8 Sept 1781, d. 1 May 1871, m. William Allen. This might give a clue of their presence and migration route.
