I am looking for information to verify my great- great-grandfather's birth. According to all his records (marriage, death, military, etc.), Charles Henry Tubbs was born in Verona, Oneida Co., NY on 19 November, 1829. He was the oldest son and second child of Charles Tubbs (of Norwalk, CT and West Springfield, MA) and Emily Morgan Tubbs (of West Springfield, MA). His older sister was born in 1826 in W. Springfield, and he may have had two other siblings born in the Verona area (Emily in 1832 and Luman in 1833), before the family moved on to Michigan (where the next child, Avanda, was born in 1835--according to the census). Charles Tubbs Sr. was a "building mover" according to the 1850 census and may have been in the same occupation during this time. They may have been with one of Emily (Sr.)'s brothers and their families as one removed from W. Springfield to Michigan in the early 1830's (this is only speculation though). Does anyone have ideas on where I could look to find the Tubbs family in Verona during this time? I have no idea where to begin to look. Thank you. Lara Grant Ripon, WI
