Newly released: Ulster Co., NY Poorhouse records in New Paltz, NY. The Ulster County Poorhouse was active in New Paltz NY from 1828-1976. Residents included the indigent, destitute, insane, intemperate, transient farm workers, freed slaves, unemployed canal and aqueduct builders, "debauched" women, unwed mothers, the friendless, the elderly, the disabled and the sick http://ulstercountyny.gov/poorhouse BACKSTORY: In 1824, New York State passed a law requiring that every county build a poorhouse. Just imagine, this was before the major influx of immigrants to NY Harbor. As was SOP with poorhouse/almshouse populations, including Blackwell's Island in NYC, criminally insane, poor and children were all clumped together. ADMITTANCE RECORDS: http://ulstercountyny.gov/poorhouse/background CEMETERY BURIALS: Some 2500 persons were interred at the Ulster Co. Poohouse Cemetery, but may exclude some who died as residents. These " records were compiled from County Hall of Records, the New Paltz Town Clerk's office, the Huguenot Historical Society records and various newspaper accounts from the Haviland-Herdgard Historical Collection at the Elting Library."

Here's a quick timeline of New York City's formation from Family Search, and may be especially helpful to those researching the Bronx. 1683 New York ended Yorkshire, creating New York (Manhattan) County from part of it.[8] [9] 1693 Orange County was given to New York County.[8] 1698 Orange County was made independent of New York County.[8] 1874 West Bronx was added to New York County.[8] 1881 North Brother Island was added to New York County.[8] 1884 Rikers Island was added to New York County.[8] 1895 East Bronx was added to New York County.[8] 1898 The five boroughs were consolidated into New York City, and her county governments were dissolved. The Borough of Manhattan had the same borders as the old New York County.[11] 1914 Bronx County, with the same borders as its borough, separated from New York County.[8] [12] Barb [email protected]

One of our Westchester Count V.N. vets is looking for an old school chum who he last saw in Viet Nam 1966-1967. The friend went to Lakeland schools in Shrub Oak, NY and was in the US Marines. His last name was KOZELOUZEK, but he was called "Lou," which may not be his given name. This may be the Obit for the friend's father. William F. Kozelouzek, 97, a longtime Peekskill resident, died February 26, 2010. He is survived by his two sons and one daughter William, James and Joan Deflauis. The family will receive friends on Monday, March 1st from 3 - 4 PM at the E.O. Curry Funeral Home, where at 4 PM a memorial service will be offered. E.O. CURRY FUNERAL HOME, INC. 313 N.

Barb -----Original Message----- From: Soyamaven <[email protected]> To: NYBROOKLYN-L <[email protected]>; NYKINGS-L <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, Nov 3, 2011 10:30 am Subject: [BKLYN] Brooklyn Continuation School http://brooklynhistory.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/bhs_v1973.6.430.jpg If the above URL breaks-up, then try:http://tinyurl.com/3m3m7v7 Circa 1922, the above image shows students at the Brooklyn Continuation School. In the early twentieth century, many boys and girls who could no longer attend school because they needed to help their families earn income went to continuation schools, like the one pictured here, in order to learn various vocational skills, which would help them find work. Young people would often work at a job in the morning and then take classes at a continuation school in the evening. Factory owners wrote hundreds of letters praising continuation school programs as they promised to create more highly skilled workers. Boys and girls enrolled in separate programs, based on gender, in the same building. They studied woodworking, electrical wiring, type-writing, salesmanship, and tailoring. Students from Brooklyn Continuation School (BCS) were in particularly high demand as workers. BCS’s students were 97% employed in industries throughout the city and the school had the highest percentage of employed students in New York. BCS was located near the corner of Ryerson Street and Myrtle Avenue, within walking distance of numerous elevated train lines. Each day hundreds of students would attend classes. Today, BCS continues to operate with a new name and location. Renamed George Westinghouse High School and located in Downtown Brooklyn, the school continues to offer hands-on learning in addition to the standard school curriculum of math, language arts, science, and history. Mirroring the development of Brooklyn industry, the school teaches classes on technology management, eyeglass design and production, website design, and robotics.

We often discuss how name misspellings can cause researchers to make erroneous family connections. So, when a few of us view originals at NYC Muni Arch, we report spelling corrections to the folks at GGG/IGG so that the index can be changed. By this I mean we report what we see, not the name we'd like to see. My family name WEIBEL has appeared as WIE- or end with -BLE, but savvy family researchers expect this. You can advise readers of your family's genealogy of this typical fluke in a simple introduction, then not allude to it further. There is one case when repeating incorrect spelling is helpful. When you have a record that can't be corrected, such as a census, it is just smart to tell your readers of the inaccuracy. In the 1900 US Census, Manhattan, he appears as Charles VEIEBEL, the same way a German would pronounce it. When I share my family story with relatives I clarify: My German great grandfather Charles WEIBEL, was difficult to find in the 1900 US Census in NY County because his surname appears beginning with a "V." This way, I tip off future generations of a major discrepancy, while acknowledging that I'm aware of it yet made the right connection. Bottom line: Spell the name as it appears in the official document, not way your family presently spells it. Make sense? Barb [email protected]

Thanks again, Diane, and many thanks to all. One sent me private stories of living on Third Avenue with that El right outside their bedroom. This is rich stuff. Eyewitness accounts. Reminds me of that more recent movie starring Jennifer Lopez movie "Shall We Dance." There, a bored atty [Richard Gere] watches Jennifer Lopez, from a train, as she teaches dance classes. Inevitably, he takes dance lessons from her. It's not the plot; it's the physical imagery of watching someone from an elevated train, and usurping their lives from the distance of a train, as if there is no privacy.

l) "Watergate" chronology in the Washington Post, thanks to investigative journalists, Bob Woodward, and Carl Bernstein>>>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/watergate/timeline.html 2) "On this day in 1974, the House Judiciary Committee recommends that America’s 37th president, Richard M. NIXON, be impeached and removed from office. The impeachment proceedings resulted from a series of political scandals involving the Nixon administration that came to be collectively known as Watergate. "The Watergate scandal first came to light following a break-in on June 17, 1972, at the Democratic Party’s national headquarters...Watergate apartment-hotel complex in Washington, D.C. A group of men linked to the White House were later arrested and charged with the crime. NIXON denied any involvement with the break-in, but several of his staff members were eventually implicated in an illegal cover-up and forced to resign. Subsequent government investigations revealed “dirty tricks” political campaigning by the Committee to Re-Elect the President, along with a White House “enemies list.” In July 1973, one of Nixon’s former staff members revealed the existence of secretly taped conversations between the president and his aides. Nixon initially refused to release the tapes, on grounds of executive privilege and national security, but a judge [SEGRUDA] later ordered the president to turn them over. The White House provided some but not all of the tapes, including one from which a portion of the conversation appeared to have been erased. "In May 1974, the House Judiciary Committee began formal impeachment hearings against NIXON. On July 27 of that year, the first article of impeachment against the president was passed. Two more articles, for abuse of power and contempt of Congress, were approved on July 29 and 30.On August 5, NIXON complied with a U.S. Supreme Court ruling requiring that he provide transcripts of the missing tapes, and the new evidence clearly implicated him in a cover up of the Watergate break-in. On August 8, NIXON announced his resignation, becoming the first president in U.S. history to voluntarily leave office. After departing the White House on August 9, Nixon was succeeded by Vice President Gerald FORD, who, in a controversial move, pardoned NIXON on September 8, 1974, making it impossible for the former president to be prosecuted for any crimes he might have committed while in office. Only two other presidents in U.S. history have been impeached: Andrew JOHNSON in 1868 and Bill CLINTON in 1998."

Dear Friends, Here are the details about those divorce papers included with a marriage license application. This also clarifies that wife #2 had to be aware of her husband's previous marriage. Harry's second marriage lasted a lifetime. Dramatis Personae Groom = Harry Bride1 = Fanny, defendant in divorce Bride 2 = Sarah. Italian Catholic Dec. 1926, Brooklyn: Harry and Sarah applied for a Marriage License* at Brooklyn City Hall and were civilly married there the same day. June 1927, Manhattan: Harry and Sarah married at Transfiguration Church, 29 Mott Street#, NY, NY * Harry's divorce papers from Fanny were included in the Marriage License #2 packet. # Transfiguration is a short walk from the Brooklyn Bridge. June 1921, Queens: Harry married Fanny. April 1923: Harry filed for divorce based upon arriving home from work at 1am and discovering a strange man in his home, presumably with his wife. April 1924: Final Divorce Decree "because of the adultery of the defendant." ................................................................................... From: VLB <[email protected]> Wow--interesting. Can you share any of the story without invading anyone's privacy? Virginia ...................................................................................................... From: mizscarlettny via <[email protected]> While searching for a 1926 NYC Marriage License at the NYC Municipal Archives last week, the luck of the Irish was with me. The three-page license was accompanied by the groom's news-making divorce papers, from his first marriage!

Lucky you! I have one that I would love to find. My grandmother (b. 1908) married in 1927 and then married my grandfather in July 1928. No signs of her 1st husband dying, so until 2027, I can't get this record...if it was in fact a divorce and not an annulment for some reason. I would love to know what happened...

Since the Archives M.O. is that staff prints all documents, then hands them to researchers on the way out the door, I discovered these divorce papers while riding the train home. BTW it appears that marriage #2 was a Catholic marriage. Another instance of new documents creating new questions. New York State seals divorce records for 100 years, to the day. Sure, you can check dates of marital actions in the county clerk's office, but it's nothing like the spicy details. Genealogy...ya gotta love it!
