Thanks Pat. Will do. Joan in Candor

Hi Joan You can order the Newspaper films Inter-Library Loan from the NYS Newspaper Project for the Counties/Towns in NYS. The Main Library near you has the reader to read them as they cannot be taken out of the Library. I use this Project all the time and find it very valuable. Here is the URL http://www.nysl.nysed.gov/nysnp/nygcty.htm Good Luck Pat R

Would the relative of my Grandmothers's May A. Payne's sister please get in touch with me again and resend me her information? I sure would like to get in touch with you again. It seem like I misplaced your e-mail to me. Joan Beebe Meddaugh Great granddaughter to Truman and Olive Damon Payne of W. Eaton

Would any one have access to old news papers especially in the obit section for the following deaths of former Brookfield, residents for the years and months of the following? January 6, 1921, for Hiram J. Beebe who died in Candor, NY buried in the Hills cemetery plot in N. Brookfield along with his father in-law James Hills. July ? 1928 for Ellen Amelia Hills wife of Hiram who died in Candor but is buried in Candor. Feb. 1922 obit for May A. Payne formerly of W. Eaton, NY wife of William Beebe who was formerly of Earlville, then Brookfield and later Candor, NY June 14, 1934 for William L. Beebe husband of May A. Payne formerly of S. Byron Sangerfield,NY, then of Earlville and later Brookfield and Finally of Candor. He was buried tho in Candor. Also any obits of Truman Payne father of May Payne Beebe. Truman died in 1875 and lived in W. Eaton. Also any obit for his wife Olive Damon Payne and later Mrs. Delos Sweet. She may have died about 1921 but I am not sure. Also an obit for Delos Sweet, I am not sure when he died but think it in the early 20's like 1922 or 23 and is buried with his first wife ?. Any help in this matter is appreciated. Joan Beebe Meddaugh formerly of Candor, NY Tioga Co Now of Portland, Or.
