Hi Lillee, I did a quick search and found that Laura Rockwell was listed as a head of household, age 70, born in Connecticut. Her daughter, Louisa Knapp -- age 29 born in Montgomery Co., and son-in-law, Spencer Knapp -- age 30 born in Otsego Co., were residing with her.

Anyone ever hear of a location in Montgomery County that was called "FLINT HILL"? My great-great grandparent THOMAS CARR(born in Ireland abt1825), wife ANNA BOYLE(b. 1828), first child Mary Anne CARR,born about 1850, her obit and cemetery plot card at St. Agnes cemetery in Menands lists her place of birth as "Flint Hill" The 1850 census has them living in Rotterdam Schenectady County. I have found out the family is listed in the 1860 census, as being born in Montgomery County "FLORIDA", which I assume is the township in Montgomery County. I know they were not born in the State of Florida. The census lists three children, Mary Ann, Thomas Jr. and Bridget as in school. Any idea where one went to school in Montgomery County in 1860. Thomas and Anna CARR are listed in the census as unable to read or write however Thomas Carr bought a plot of land in WEST TROY in 1866 for $ 900.00. How he obtained the money or why he purchased land in West Troy is a mystery. They were Irish Catholics and I have written St. Mary's in Amsterdam, who could not locate any records. Thanks for any help.

My 4-gg, John and Margaret Ferguson had 9 sons and 1 dau in Broadalbin, starting 1789. John and Margaret m abt 1787/88 -- but I cannot find where? My particular problem is that I cannot find Margaret's maiden name. The bets are that she was an Embree (but I haven't found a John Ferguson-Margaret Embree marriage. Recently I discovered that a Margaret Embree had married a ___ McBride -- and that she was a widow before 1790. This could mean that I should be looking for a John Ferguson - Margaret McBride marriage. I'd certainly like to make a donation to any person who would take the time for this lookup. Bob in San Jose

I have very recently come into temporary possession of scrapbooks put together by my grandmother (Verlie Rose Van Etta Ambridge) and my great-grandfather (Alfred G. Van Etta), which contain an enormous amount of obituaries of family, friends and contemporaries from the Montgomery County Area. I would like to make available to any interested individuals copies of these obituaries, therefore I will post all the names in several different emails, in hopes that it will help someone. I apologize in advance for so many names but this is a treasure that I have to share. Anyone interested please contact me via email at NAmbr73595@aol.com with the names of people you would like.

Dear List, Does anyone have access to the 1855 NY State Census for Charleston, Montgomery Co? I am interested in a listing for Laura ROCKWELL, then the widow of James Rockwell. She may be listed as head-of-household or as a family member with one of her children. It would be very helpful if I could find out the information listed there concerning year and county of birth. If you can help, please send a message to my e-mail address. Thank you. Lillee

I think Furman is sometimes Forman, as well as Firman.

In a message dated 5/21/00 8:58:11 AM Pacific Daylight Time, WADE439@aol.com writes: << Any FIRMAN or NICKLEN descendants out there? >> I can't offer much help because I don't have any FIRMANs. The closest I can come is the surname FURMAN, and I have next to nothing on that one. For quite some time I've been looking for Mariah Furman, nee BADER/BAUDER/PAUTER/POTTER. Mariah was born 18 Nov 1808 and baptised 29 Jan 1809 at St. Pauls Lutheran Church of Minden, Montgomery Co., NY as the daughter of Jacob and Gertraut (Charity) Bader. In her father's 1860 probate records she is referred to as Mariah Furman. By that time her Bader family was using the surname, Potter, and several siblings were living in western NY. However, I don't know where Mariah was living. If Maria sounds familiar to you (or anyone else), please contact me. Ed Harrison EHarr76546@cs.com

Randy, I was making an index of Garlock wills available at the FHL. I came across a will for your Andrew. If you don't already have it, you may be interested. Only one Garlock was listed for Schoharie Co. Garlock, Andrew; Seward Schoharie Co., NY, Vol 12 page 333, between the years 1887-1891, FHL film 857185 This doesn't name his father, but it could give you some leads. He probably named one of his children after his father.

Hello Richard, Thank you for the information on John TWIST and Titus TWIST. They are not familiar, but I'll check them out. Jerry Twist gatwist@hotmail.com

I have much information on the MORCK and STANGLE (and Stangl) families of Amsterdam and surrounding towns. Charles J. MORCK (and wife Maria Magdalena WAGGENMANN) came from Strassbourg, France in 1889, with their children. Francis X. STANGL (and his wife Magdalena MORCK) came from Bavaria, Germany a few years earlier. I have much info on the MORCK ancestry in France and Germany, and look for descendants interested in sharing.
