Due to the following communication from Edee (Edeew99@aol.com), I am recinding my offer to do look-ups in my Orange County Genealogy books. I think the communication speaks for itself. So sorry, Sue My statement in my original offer: << I have the following, however, please make sure any queries have detailed information (dates, full names, etc.). In order to be in compliance with copyright laws, I will give brief descriptions of info. and/or confirm the information is in the book or document: >> Edee's (Edeew99@aol.com) response to my statement: You have to be kidding! The idea is - MOST SEARCHERS DON'T HAVE THAT DATA - THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE LOOKING FOR!! ..................Edee My response to Edee: << My offer does not call for a rude response as I have been spending the last 5 hours responding in detail to the queries I have gotten. Personally I have better things to do with my time but I feel strongly, "what goes around comes around". >> Edee's response(Edeew99@aol.com): Oh, get off your high horse. I've been doing genealogy for 19 yrs and I have over 62,000 surnames in databases and I don't hesitate to pass on ANY data I have, regardless of where it comes from or who authored it. Another part of my original response to Edee: <<Most researchers do have that data for the most recent generation or they shouldn't be going back another generation. Edee's response (Edeew99@aol.com): Thats the most ridiculous statement I've ever heard!

Hello everyone I'm new to this list, and thought i'd post my interest. I'm searching for information on a Julia Maria Putney daughter of Amasa Putney and Lucretia Hamilton, who was christened on 2 September 1821 Dutch Reformed Church Montgomery Orange county NY. In particular i'm trying to find out who she married, and if she is one in the same as my g-g-g-grandmother Julia (Putney) Palmer, wife of Henry Palmer. I dont know much about my Julia except she was born in NY around 1821. Henry and Julia are listed on the Warren county Warrensburg census beginning in 1850. I'm trying to look into all Julia Putneys born in NY around this time period, just seem to keep hitting the brick walls! Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks! Heather

Hello Barbara. I am not 100% sure Otisville but, the next town from Otisville is Middletown, and Otisville and Middletown have the same zip code. So I would guess It would be Middletown . this is just an area guess. yours in genealogy Joanne -----Original Message----- From: Barbra T.

Portrait and Bio Record of Orange County pg. 496 William Brewster A well to do and thrifty farmer of Orange County. has a splended tract of land, seventy-five acres in extent, which lies in the town of Crawford, nea the postoffice of that name, This locality is also his home, and he is well known as one of the most successful farmers and fruit growers in the vicinity. The father of our subject, Oliver Brewster, was born at West Point, whence he came to this community nearly a half century ago. He was an ambitious , industrious man, and as fast as he made money invested it in land and made improvements on his property. He "grubbed the stumps from the place, removed the stones and rocks, and ditched and graded the land, making of it one of the most fertile and productive tracts in the county. He was a wagon- maker by trade, and worked at his calling in Canterbury. His land is devoted principally to the raising of fruit, as it seems to be peculiarly adapted to that branch of farming. The lady whom Oliver Brewster married was Miss Harriet A. Crissey, of Cornwall. She was born in New York, and was fufty-six years of age at the time of her decease. She became the mother of three children of whom James C. is engaged in the dry-goods business in New York City; our subject was the second born; and Henry C. is a prominent painter, decorator and paper-hanger, his place of business being in Cornwall on the Hudson. Wiiliam Brewster for whom our subject was named, came over in the "Mayflower" and was the progenitor of the Brewsters in America. Dyer Brewster, the grandfather was an early settler in Vermont, and later held a Goverment position, dealing out supplies, ect. to the soldiers at West Point. He had large landed interest in this section, his possessions extending over a cosiderable territory, including the estate of the late E.P. Roe. The subject of this sketch was born January 20, 1854, at ornwall. He attened school until reaching his twentieth year, and worked for his father until the latter's decease, when, with his younger brother, he assumed the management of the farm, on which he has since made his home, being very successful in its operation. Mr. Brewster wa married in June 1892 to Miss Angie Taylor, daughter of Charles and Mary Taylor, natives of Carlisle. The lady was born in the latter place February 20, 1870, and has become the mother of a daughter Alice. Mr Brewster is a gental, pleasent, gentleman, and an ardent supporter of Democratic principles. His good wife ia a consistent member of the Presbyterian Church, in the work of witch she is actively engaged and a great helper. Joanne
