Hello to all Been busier than a long tailed cat in a room full of rockers around here, lately. Most of my free time is taken up with trying to answer letters regarding families, cooking, and being the good househusband... As some of you know, I'm spending a lot of energy on producing an album (or two) of music I've written over the last 20 some odd years. All I really have to offer is that I've updated my site a little bit with quite a lengthy "thesis" on the early Burton family, courtesy of Dwayne Burton, who is "of the midwest somewhere"... There are a couple of other new links in the mix, one of which could be beneficial to most anyone studying Madison County - you'll see it if you go looking. I invite you to visit by clicking on the link at the bottom of this. Hopefully I can have something worthwhile to share with you all in the coming months. I did finally receive the DeRuyter Grips work after 10 months of waiting, but I think someone may already have that online. I may put! that up over the next month or so, anyway - if I am wrong, and it isn't online, please let me know. I hope this finds you all well, in good spirits, and wealthy with firewood... Summer's on it's way here - ha! John My FreePages are located at: http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~ameralia/

Dear John: I have ancestors who were in Madison County in late 1790 to 1867. My Spencers' were Rodman Spencer and his wife Abigail. They had 8 children of which are William, Jacob, John,Joseph,Susannah, Sally and Elizabeth and one other child of whose name I can't think of right now. But what I am interested in is John D. Spencer who married a Polly Ann (I believe Burton). They too had several chidren but their son Perry married Adelia Smith of Oswego County and they then lived in Eaton. But what makes me think that Polly Ann's maiden name is that Perry and Adelia had a set of twins who were Emory Burton Spencer and Emily Burton Spencer. Do you have any Spencers in your family of Burtons or should I say do you have a Polly Ann Burton. I think that the middle name was given them because of their grandmother Polly Ann. Any help here is greatly appreciated Jean Payton ----- Original Message ----- From: "JCB" <genes@dodo.com.au> To: <NYMADISO-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, October 11, 2005 12:31 AM Subject: [NYMADISO] Greetings > Hello to all > > Been busier than a long tailed cat in a room full of rockers around here, > lately.
