Sheila: I looked Jason up for the 1930 census shows him living in Throop Town Cayuga County, NY. He was living with the Wilbun Manrow (sp) and Minnie, Minnie is listed as 48 years old and Jason listed as Father in law aged 72 and being a widower. I hope this helps in your search.

Dolores, I don't know which cemetery that might be, but I can suggest if you cannot find out from somebody else, you might contact the Onondaga Historical Association. Dennis Connors, who works at OHA, gave a presentation about cemeteries in the Syracuse area to the Central New York Genealogical Society earlier in March. He talked basically about the evolution of burial grounds throughout the area. The address you provide is very close to Thornden Park, and I do recall Dennis mentioning a very small cemetery that was near Thornden Park. What was done in many of the older cemeteries no longer in active use in Syracuse was rather sad -- the tombstones were often laid down flat and covered over, leaving little to no evidence that a cemetery ever was there. I hope this isn't the case for the burial you seek, but it just might be. -- Mary Taffet in Syracuse On Mon, 29 Mar 2004 [email protected] wrote: > Dear List, > > Can anyone tell me anything about this burial location? > > An old burial plot containing some half dozen graves, in the eastern part of > Syracuse, New York, near the Abbott residence, 1316 Madison Street. lie the > remains of Aaron Bush and Martha Beedle Bush, his wife. > > Thank you. > > Dolores > Apple Valley, CA > >

Dear List, Can anyone tell me anything about this burial location? An old burial plot containing some half dozen graves, in the eastern part of Syracuse, New York, near the Abbott residence, 1316 Madison Street. lie the remains of Aaron Bush and Martha Beedle Bush, his wife.

My Great Grandfather, Isaac Hall was born in Cicero, Onondaga County NY in 1816. We have not found his parents. The family story is that Isaac's father died when he was young and that his mother, Sally, remarried to Alonzo Taft. From research, we think that possibly his mother might be the Sarah Mills who married John Taft about 1823. Does anyone from the Hall or Taft or Mills family know anything about Isaac? Also we found Asa Hall, who died in 1818, age 55, and was buried in Christ Church Cemetery in Manlius. Does anyone know anything about him? Does anyone have any Probate Records or Wills or Obits that they could look for a Hall who died shortly after 1816? Any bit of info would really be welcome, as this has been a brick wall. Thank You. Fleta Forquer

Maybe his employment records might have something? I have city dir of Syr various yrs, 1894-1956 if a lookup might help. Just mention the names and yrs- and towns if you know them.

I think that I might have found the answer to my original question about the Onondaga County Hospital. I believe that it is now the Van Duyn Home and Hospital, in some form. I will be contacting them to pursue this line of research. To answer your questions, I found Shadrach in the early censuses (1892 NYS, and 1900 federal) in the town of Nelson, Madison County. Later, by 1917 anyway, he lived in Delphi Falls, Madison County, and from 1920 until he died in 1947 he was in the village of Manlius, Onondaga County. I do have his grandparents' obits, such as they were, and Shadrach is not mentioned, but his "sisters" and "brothers" were. If I restate the relationships, maybe it will make the singularity of this person clearer (as in mud-clear): James Jones (1826-1912) married Jane Davis (1835-1897) and they had nine children, the oldest of whom was Jane, born 1856, and the youngest of whom, Eva, was born in 1881. Shadrach, born 1883, is listed in the 1892 census as a grandson. Another document, a typescript family tree, shows Shadrach as "adopted". No one in the family knows his true status. Evan Shadrach's diary from when he was 15 shows him referring to his "grandparents'" children as brothers and sisters, and in fact, the one child of theirs (James and Jane) who survived Shadrach was mentioned in the obituary as a brother. James did not name Shadrach as a son when applying for or amending any document relating to his Civil War pension after Shadrach's birth. But, Shadrach is mentioned in and bequeathed to in James' will. Moving on to more answers to your questions: I do not believe that Shadrach was adopted in any conventional way, if at all. I have not yet checked for adoption papers, but will do so soon (in Madison County) to see if there are any guardianship papers or surrogate records. Anne, you mentioned the following, and I have to aske for some clarification: "Did you look at the death indexes from the very beginning of record for the family last name? I know Jones is difficult, but back then it may have been very less common & easier to track." If you mean did I check for Shadrach in the index to death certificates, I did, and I found the record. I haven't yet pursued that through the state DOH, and would prefer not to, per my experience and your advice. You are certainly right that Jones is a difficult and common name, and there were many unrelated Jones families in the Nelson area since the 1850s. If there is something else you meant by "death indexes", I'm not sure what it is. We do know that Shadrach never married, and never served in the military. I do not believe that he registered for the draft, either, but can't be sure without investing in a search. It is possible that he registered for Social Security, but doubtful, given his age at death, and the tenor of the times. Thanks again for the help--I hope that answering here frames the problems a little more clearly so that my situation can be understood.

Good Morning Pam The Public Library in downtown Syracuse located in the "Galleries" is the main Library for Onondaga County NY and they have a wonderful Genealogy or "Special Collections" Dept. This covers the entire County. They also have microfilm of the old Newspapers for Onondaga County "Herald Journal" and "Post Standard". This would be where you would locate an Obit. You could write to the "Special Collections" Dept. for Information. Or perhaps you could enclose the Name of your Ancestor and location in the Email on the Mailing List and see if someone would look this up for you. I would suggest that anyhow. Remember the Village or Town would not have the death record if they died elsewhere in the County. The Hospitals for Onondaga County are located in the City of Syracuse and Community Hospital is located in the Town of Onondaga (which is the closest to Skaneateles) and a death record would then be located at the Onondaga Town Clerks Office. http://www.ocpl.lib.ny.us/ Good Luck Pat R

Does anyone know if there is a library in Skaneateles. I googled it to no avail. Maybe just missed something?, Went to Yellow Pages and all I could find for Public Library was Onondaga County Public Library in Syracuse. I need to find a copy of an obit. from the `1930's in hopes it tells me where my g grandparents (living in Skinny) were buried in RI. I have already tried the Town Hall (They don't have those records) and the two Funeral Homes. One in Skinny the other in Skinny Falls. Pam

Could some kind soul please check the NY index of deaths when they visit the library in Syracuse and email me the information on the date of death, place of death and certificate number for: Jason R. SWIFT 1854-1935 and his wife Ella (nee Richardson) SWIFT 1856-1915 I need this information so that I can look for death notices in the newspapers and write to the local registrar for the death certificate rather than write to Albany. Thanks so much, Sheila Strickland Olney, MD

Hi Jack- Do you happen to have a Peter SCOTT in your line ca 1900? My Peter J Scott was b in Co Mayo Ire abt 1870, emigrated to MA, married a Margaret BYRON BERRANE BIRRANE BYRNE ca 1892. They had 2 children, John and Anna. I beleive Peter died in Massachusetts bef 1908, and Margaret and children went to Syracuse. Anna stayed single, her brother John P may have married a Marion- they had 2 children, possibly more- Dawn and Walter b ca 1930 in Syracuse.

This is just a light introduction. My name is Jack Scott and I am researching the John C. Roberts family -this family may be resident of Onondaga Co in 1850. John Robert(s) was Canada ca. 1810 - his wife Margaret was b. abt 1819 and her birth county is Columbia Co. They probably have children - Frank, Margaret,Theodore, Gertrude Susan and Andrew. This family later ca. 1852 or so removed to Fulton, Oswego Co - and there resided for many years. There is a chance that Margaret wife of John is a LeMay - not sure yet - dont hold me to it. His father might be Frank Lemay b. 1785 in Canada - also at Fulton. Any help with John Roberts and family at Onondaga Co. would be of great interest. With kind regards, Jack Scott Hanover,Pa. _________________________________________________________________ Free up your inbox with MSN Hotmail Extra Storage.

Yes, Onondaga Co has them at the Central Library in the Galleries. I probably won't be getting there this Saturday- it will be another week or two before I get time to get down there. However, if any one is willing to wait until I get time, I can do look-ups in the microfiche. Just email me privately if you want some done.

This index as described on the New York State Library's genealogy webpages: <<http://www.nysl.nysed.gov/genealogy/vitrec.htm>> "Indexes to the Vital Records of New York State (except New York City) Microfiche copies of the Indexes to the vital records that are currently available to the public contain the following information: name, place, date, and certificate number. The Indexes are currently available upstate only at the New York State Archives, 3rd Floor, Cultural Education Center, Empire State Plaza, Albany, NY 12230, 518-474-8955; and Rochester Public Library, 115 South Avenue, Rochester, NY 14604, 716-428-8440.

I believe I had heard that the Onondaga County Public Library now also has a set of the microfiche index? --Michelle Lauren Rowe wrote: > what statewide index are you referring too? > thanks > > -Original Message- From: Michelle Stone [mailto:[email protected]] Sunday, > March 14 2004 7:16 AM > To: [email protected] re: Lookup please: NY Marriage index 1883 > Hi, Listers, > If anyone will be able to check a lookup for a 1883 marriage in the > statewide index for me, I certainly would appreciate it.
