Marilyn, Thanks for the response. Attempting to locate Alden MASON, my g-g-grfather b. 11-30-1805 in MA d. 4-16-1883 believed in area of DeRuyter, MADISON Co NY (1880 census) or Baldwinsville ONONDAGA Co NY. His wife Rhoda DUNBAR passed away Apr. 14, 1858 in Palermo OSWEGO Co NY. Questioned if I could get a d. cert. on Rhoda unless there might be a newspaper obit. Also have a Mehitable (or Mehitabell) DUNBAR d. Mar. 28, 1860 also in Palermo OSWEGO Co, NY. Any help is appreciated.
