Posted on: Oneida Co. NY Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/Oneida?read=706 Surname: SCHERMERHORN ------------------------- I am also researching a John Schermerhorn, born in Oneida County around 1797. Could they be siblings? I don't know John's parents.
There used to be a hamlet called Munnsville. My memory is pretty foggy, but I think it was between Boonville and Turin on the old Rt 12D which is now Rt 26. There wasn't much there, but the Munn's had a Big farm there. That was in the 1940's and '50's. I think it could of been in Lewis Co. but it was pretty close to the Oneida/Lewis Line.
Audrey, I think you and others may have been misled by "information" taken from a website which parodies political events. They did this recently on the census. Go to http://www.theonion.com/onion3612/us_population.html The figure you listed below shows up on their "headline." In one way, this is a very funny article. However, taken out of context, which it appears this radio station did, the "news" is very misleading. I hope this clears things up.

Had daughter Elizabeth W. Lilly who was b. 1835 Camden. Family apparently removed to Illinois (likely Henry Co., town of Cambridge) prior to 1851. Any information on this family would be most appreciated! Thanks. Kim
Posted on: Oneida Co. NY Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/Oneida?read=704 Surname: ------------------------- Chances are if this Munn lived in Boonville NY he belonged to the Munn family from Leyden, Lewis Co NY, so you would probably have more luck checking out the Lewis Co NY websie. They have several years of census etc that you might find something in. Boonville is the northenmost town in Oneida Co which is just south of Lewis Co, and there were several Munns there, all belonging to the same family I believe. Good luck!

They have always carried Forestport news. The Erwin Library has all the issues of it on microfilm and someone there may also be of help. Both ph#s would be available from information. I am not sure if the library does any look-ups, but may if you are not from the area. Wouldn't hurt to try. Good luck!

I hear on this list and others about the success that people have had researching at the LDS Family History Centers. Maybe I'm missing something, but I haven't found my local FHC very helpful. Am I doing something wrong? I've been there twice in the last year, each time searching for a different family. The first time I was directed to the computer databases. The second time I was more prepared; I had an FTM Genealogy Report printed out with the information I wanted highlighted. I told the volunteer who I was looking for and what sources I had already used. She directed me to ... the computer databases!! Frustrated, I told her I had already checked those. She suggested I look at the 1892 NYS Census for Oneida County!!! I told her (and had confirmed by this list) that Oneida County didn't have a NYS census in 1892. It seems everyone else finds good resources there, but I don't even know where to begin looking. Any suggestions?

Hi Wendy, You did not say what you wanted the FHC to do for you. So as a user of FHC's for 16 years and a volunteer at one for 2 years, I know what they can help you with and what is beyond their limits. Personally, I have used the FHL's for verification of possible (facts); County land records to find out about land holdings, and make copies of indentures and transcribe them; Probate records to establish family structures by the bequests to offspring; Census records for tracking the family; city directories to also track family members. Those are some of the type of films I order. Most FHL's have extensive microfiche holdings, AIS, IGI, just to mention two of the most popular. Check to see if a local genealogy society is holding any classes to learn how to use the fiche. Our society holds classes twice a year to teach the use of the centers. I am also a user of FTM and am upgrading to 7.5, the program to enter data is one of my favorites, but I find the use of the CD's marginal to useless. I take anything found there with a grain of salt unless I can verify it with original records. The main lacking I have found with most researchers is the acceptance of marginal information. A good researcher double and triple checks different items to get a preponderance of evidence to be able to be sure they have accurate data. I have heard of people having thousands of names in their data bases, I have only about 496 people, but of these I feel I personally know about 300. By that I mean I have tracked them through, censuses, probates, city directories, cemetery records, National Archives records, personally photographing their tombstones, and reading all county histories I can find and then hitting their local newspapers. The local newspapers are a great source if there is one being published in their locale. So, you need to understand the FHL to be able to use it to your best advantage. It is a useful tool, but is just that it is a tool, and must be used correctly to do the job right I hope this helps you, and I am available to answer any questions you may have and if I don't know the answer I will find out for you. Wont do your research, but will give you a plan of attack. Alice in AZ

Posted on: Oneida Co. NY Obituaries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/OneidaObits?read=123 Surname: william sullivan ------------------------- the 1850 census shows my great grandparents, John and Ellen Sullivan living in florence NY. Their oldest son was William, age 15, (born 1835?). He was born in NY and attended school. The 1860 census shows him no longer in that residence. There is another William Sullivan, age 25, living in Florence, married to a Nancy, with one son, John. He was a loborer and had accrued $400 in real estate and $100 in personal value. It would seem that this is the same William Sullivan, based on the age. On your info, it doesn't look the same people.

My Ggrandmother was MaryAnn Condon Fitzgerald. She was injusred in a buggy accident and we suspect she was hospitalized from 1886 until her death in 1920. Any information would be appreciated.
Posted on: Oneida Co. NY Obituaries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NY/OneidaObits?read=122 Surname: William Sullivan ------------------------- My ggrandfather Thomas B.Sullivan was from somewhere in Oneida County and I know nothing about his family. He was married in Veron NY to Emma Penner and at some time left there and came to Cohoes NY (Albany County) where he raised two sons William and John L. He and my ggrandmother are both buried there in St. Agnes Cemetery. I just wondered if it was possible that William could be Thomas's father? Any information would be a help.
I have a map of Boonville, Oneida County, New York hand-drawn and dated 1874 that lists Wetmore S. MERRILL as a store owner/operator. I am certain that WETMORE was his mother's last name. Does anyone have census information on either name in this time frame? Thanks, Rick Merrill
