And suppose I want to know what 'they' are sharing, how can I if they follow your demand? Can't You use your delete key like I have too? Asking or demanding that they share off list is to deny the purpose of the list. I believe you should not do that as you don't know the needs of everyone on the list and therefore you do not and can not speak for us.

    3. Hi Judy I might find something yet on your Ira ADAMS. I have not given up and have your request bookmarked. I have so much material and I never seem to get through it all. Do you have the name of his wife or siblings? I have many File cabinets of Folders with information (Historical) on Lewis County and various pioneers. This information was collected from many sources, and a great deal by Arthur C Moore (& wife Elizabeth) of Lewis County. He was History Committee Chairperson for the Board of Supervisors during the time he served. He also was B, lived a great deal of his life and D in Lewis County. In his early years he had spent time in Michigan, Colorado and West with many of his relatives who had left Lewis County and while there studied Mechanical Engineering in Colorado while staying with his uncle, returning home due to the illness of his father to help his elderly mother.. Dad spent many hours doing History as a pass time and Mom typed most of his notes, but not all. Much was on his direct families of MOORE, DEWEY, ARTHUR, PITCHER, PEASE, WHEELER, OWEN, Etc. pioneers in Lewis County and there is info on other locations of NY, CT and Massachusetts. He made a number of trips to NE to verify information he found in Books, newspapers, check land records, meet cousins and etc.. In addition he did work on many other early Pioneer Families of Lewis County as he knew many of their descendants in addition to his interest. The info is not indexed (more by date collected) and therefore difficult to information fast. Warm Regards Pat R

    1. Re: [NYLEWIS] Seventh Day Settlement and Seventh Day Settlement District School

    3. In a message dated 1/9/2008 8:43:22 AM Eastern Standard Time, [email protected] writes: > Seventh Day Settlement school down E State > St, almost to the Mill Cr. > Hi Luella & Dick I think we are talking about 2 different things. One the Seventh Day Settlement and One the school building located in Seventh Day Settlement District. There was both. Regarding the Settlement, I have researched this Lewis County church denomination (and its members) for many years starting from their first church in Newport (where I descend from the founders),RI, CT, NY, NJ, PA and on Westward. Thery were strong and had many Seventh Day settlements throughout NYS. The Seventh Day Settlement in Lewis County was started in 1841 by a group of Seventh Day Baptist (no connection to Adventist) who built their Church in the Town of Watson and their homes in the area of Watson, Greig and bordering Denmark. The Seventh Day Settlement cemetery is still located on a portion of their former property today. It is an abandoned cemetery and is taken care of by the Town of Watson. The Charter or Constituent members of this group lived in close proximity of the church in the TN. of Watson. Many ot them being Ancestors of mine. The first pastor of that Church Group was my 2nd G Uncle William Quible and the first burials in the Cemetery were that of my 2nd G Grandfather (Greene) and his young daughter. However as the Church grew their membership grew and at one time membership exceeded over 400 members. Burials at the cemetery are limited, but with other records I have almost doubled the burials that were made there.. The Church was located across the street from where the Cemetery is still located. If you take the road to Number Four you will come to Peckham Rd. on the Left, follow that road and take the dirt road to the R just before the stone quarry. I have a picture of the original church. This church was burned by Arson in the fall of 1891 and was rebuilt and dedicated in May have 1892. Information at that time led suspicion to the two hotel keepers in the Tn of Watson who had been sued in Supreme Court for violation of the excise law and the Seventh Day people living in the area were known to be in favor of the prosecution and no license. At that time the Pastor was on the Bd. There were many small farms near the church operated by their members (all adjacent to the church) but the land was very poor for farming and the farms soon started to deteriorate and the other industry which was logging had also waned. This made it impossible for for one to make a decent living. The young people married, moved away so they could start a business or find work where industry was plentiful. Thus ending an era of success and defeat for this Community and Church which dispanded during the period of 1907-1908. Regarding Seven Day Settlement School District In the Early 1900's Union Free School District No 2 was organized. It included Common School District No. 2 in Lowville which had two buildings, the Valley Street building later the Grange Hall and the the State Street building that later became the Leonard Harris residence, the Jackson Street District, the Seven Day Settlement District and the Rice District. So this appears when Seven Day Settlement School District started. Note: It does not mention that exact location by street for the Seven Day Settlement District building, but no doubt this the school you attended Luella. In 1910 it became a requirement that all students were entitled to a Secondary education and Lowville Academy was a paid secondary school. It was abt 1911 it became the Secondary school (free to students) and it was the 2nd supervisory district (formed in 1911) which included Lowville, Denmark, Copenhagen, Barnes Corners, part of Watson and extended to Martinsburg where it bordered the third supervisory district (which was the school District I was in when attending both the 1 Room schoolhouse in Houseville and Gen. Martin). Pat R
