    2. Samuel Rhodes was also in Ellisburg at the time of the town's formation in 1805 and is listed in the histories of the County of Jefferson as a owerseer of highways.We have never seen much more of him after that. There was a Samuel Rhodes who was of Scriba about 1832 and who also was in a down state community before that. thanks.

Also, Lulu isn't buried in the family plot in Antwerp, which is one of the problems I have with tracking her down. My Great Uncle by CW's first wife was named William, but I've never heard of him having a wife who died. Guess it might be possible, though; have to check with my mother. I appreciate you finding that for me. Bob Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I can't find anything from my searches. I know there is a book about the place and I'll try to track that down, but at the moment I'm trying to find any information on my GGrandfather, Charles William Cheney's second wife, Lulu Lamont Cheney. They are in Wilna in the 1920 census and she died sometime between 1920 and 1930 but she is not buried in the family plot in Antwerp. Since at least a couple of their children were born in Sterlingville, that's the next logical place for me to search. She's not a direct ancestor of mine, but she is of interest because nobody in our family ever talked much about her, maybe because she was 30 years younger than my GGrandfather.

    3. As most of you know I have around 700 biographies online for Jefferson County, NY. Now I am also adding biographies for St. Lawrence County also. So far I have a little over 300 online for St. Lawrence County. It will take a long time for Northern NY to catch up to what I have online for Western NY but I am working on that. Each of the biographies now has a handy email gadget in the menu part for you to send a link to that page to someone, that is neat. It will even allow you to post it to a surname list that you may be a member of. All the biographies for New York may be found with this link: http://www.onlinebiographies.info/index.htm Cheers Ray
