Harvey Herrick of Canandaigua, NY, married Caroline Kent of Lockport, NY in Hopewell on 22 Jan. 1851. I believe this is the Harvey Herrick who was age 35 in the 1850 census, living in Hopewell, Ontario Co., NY; this makes him born about 1815; and Caroline Kent, age 24, born about 1826, also living in Hopewell in the 1850 census. In 1860 they are living in Lockport, Niagara, NY, Harvey is age 40 and Caroline is age 36. With them are two sons, William Herrick, age 4 and Frank H. Herrick, age 1. Can anyone tell me anything about the ancestry of Harvey Herrick? Or death dates and places for Harvey and Caroline as well as more information on the sons and any other children they might have had. Thanks for any help you can give me, Joann Nichols

Hi Joann, I was going to refer this query to Richard Herrick, until I saw who it was from. LOL The 1855 census for Niagara county exists and it would say what county, state or country the person was born in. It also shows how many years resident in this particular town in 1855.

Thanks, Dick, I got a reply from someone else as well, and it seems that this Harvey went to MI and died in 1901. The Family Search Pilot program has a death record for him, and his parents aren't anywhere near who I had hoped they would be! I'm not sure this is the correct Harvey, but in lieu of any other information, guess I need to accept it. I do not have easy access to the 1855 NY censuses. The closest LDS library to me is in Bennington, and it is sooooo tedious to order microfilm from them and then wait for the film to come. It's over an hour trip each way. So that's my complaint for today! I appreciate your help with this. Joann Rich Hill wrote: > Hi Joann, > > I was going to refer this query to Richard Herrick, until I saw who it was > from.

Bennington is not far from Albany and they have the state census there. Just in case you want to drive a little farther. Dick On Sun, Aug 8, 2010 at 3:36 AM, Joann H.
