Author: hughmacdougall Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.otsego/4910.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: A quick check of US Censuses suggests that Calista E. Bailey was: Born in New York January 1845 (or possible a few years earlier), daughter of William C. Bailey, shoemaker and seller, born New York, December 1820, parents born Connecticut, and his wife Elizabeth, born England ca. 1818, died before 1900. Calista lived in Cooperstown from before 1860 until her death. Calista is reported to have died on June 10, 1910. She married, on October 7, 1874, DeWitt Delong, of New York, a grocer and later a freight agent, of Cooperstown, born November 1846. He lived in Cooperstown until after 1930. They had only one child, Clara Elizabeth Delong, born May 1879, who lived with her parents (and later just her father) in Cooperstown until her death in 1963. Clara never seems to have had any occupation. From at least 1908 until after 1930 the Delong family lived at 78 Chestnut Street. Is that the right Calista, and does that answer your question?

ANNOUNCING NEW DATABASE BOOK 4 - INTERMENT INDEX ST. MARY'S CEMETERY, TROY NEW YORK INTERMENT YEARS - April 1935 - November 1952 A. Book 4, part of a multi-volume set of Interment Records at St. Mary's Cemetery, Troy, NY, which includes 5,112 names, has now been added to the Troy Irish Genealogy website. You can view these interment records by going to the Troy Irish Genealogy website at: www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs/ click on TIGS PROJECTS and then click on ST. MARY'S CEMETERY, TROY, NY - INTERMENT RECORDS. B. This new data series of interment records list an individuals name, date of death and age at death. In a large number of records, the age is reported in years, months and days. Some entries without a date of death, are re-interments to or from another cemetery. It should be noted that these records, like most of the TIGS data series, cover the general population in the area and are NOT restricted to Irish surnames. C. Researchers having relatives with a CAPITAL DISTRICT area connection, will be interested in these on-line, name searchable, records of names of individuals who were interred in St. Mary's Cemetery in Troy, NY. If you live in a nearby county or even further away, you might want to check out these names. Take a look at the data base, you never know what you will find. D. The TIGS website has a PRINTABLE FORM that can be used to request more information from the Albany Diocesan Cemeteries. Mailing instructions and fees (only $5.00) are on the request form. Additional items that may be available from the full interment record may include: 1. LATE RESIDENCE: While many of the records in Book 4 show only the name of the city as the late residence, 1,348 of the records will show a house number and a Troy street address. 2. INTERMENT DATE: The date of interment in St. Mary's Cemetery may be another clue which will be helpful to genealogy and family researchers. 3. SECTION/LOT#: The section and lot number may be another clue which will be helpful to genealogy and family researchers. 4. UNDERTAKER: The name of the undertaker may be another clue which will be helpful to genealogy and family researchers. E. The following information on the 5,112 deaths will be of interest: 1. No age was reported for 208 names and 112 records were identified as "Still Born". 2. A breakdown of the other deaths by age groups shows: Under 1 year - 210 names. Age 1 to 10 - 95 names. Age 11 to 19 - 37 names. Age 20 to 29 - 114 names. Age 30 to 39 - 186 names. Age 40 to 49 - 355 names. Age 50 to 59 - 789 names. Age 60 to 69 - 1,261 names. Age 70 to 79 - 1,190 names. Age 80 to 89 - 489 names. Age 90 to 99 - 63 names. Age 100+ - 1 name. F. Nearly all of the 5,112 interment records showed some indication of residence. Those records will be of interest to researchers outside of the Troy Area as they identify residences in numerous cities and towns throughout New York State as well as 21 other states and Canada. While most of the records were for the Capital District Area, other areas throughout New York State were reported. Some specifics on residence information follow: 1. The following NYS locations had three or more records: Albany-136, Averill Park-4, Bethlehem-4, , Brunswick-31, Buffalo-3, Cohoes-42, Colonie-19, Cropsyville-3, East Greenbush-6, Glens Falls-8, Glenville-4, Grafton-3, Green Island-111, Hawthorne-3, Hoosick-4, Hudson-6, Marcy-3, Mechanicville-5, Menands-7, North Greenbush-107, Oneonta-4, Orangeburg-3, Petersburg-3, Pittstown-5, Plattsburgh-3, Poestenkill-9, Poughkeepsie-105, Rensselaer-4, Rochester-3, Rome-4, Sand Lake-14, Saratoga Springs-14, Schaghticoke-13, Schenectady-43, Syracuse-4, Troy-3,502 including 1,348 with street addresses, Utica-11, Voorheesville-5, Waterford-9, Watervliet-144 and Wynantskill-4. 2. The following NYS locations had 2 records: Cambridge, Canton, Castle Point, Center Brunswick, Chester, Claverack, Corinth, Groveland, Guilderland, Halfmoon, Ilion, Latham, Mount Pleasant, Niskayuna, North Elba, Oxford, Pleasantdale, Rotterdam and Saranac Lake. 3. The following NYS locations had 1 record: Altamont, Ballston Spa, Batavia, Bath, Beacon, Berlin, Brewster, Broadalbin, Eagle Mills, Elmira, Fort Edward, Grand island, Greenwich, Herkimer, Hoosick Falls, Hudson Falls, Kingston, Lake Placid, Loudonville, Lyons, Malta, Malvern, Melrose, Moreau, Ogdensburg, Oriskany, Penn Yan, Red Hook, Salem, Schodack, Schuylerville, St. Johnsville, Suffern, Tamarack, Valley Falls, Vienna, Webb, West Haverstraw, West Seneca and Wingdale. 4. For the New York City area, there were 97 records for Manhattan, 9 records for Brooklyn, 8 records for Queens, 1 record for the Bronx, 10 records for Westchester and 9 records for Long Island. Three records indicated "New York" so it is unclear if this meant New York State or New York City. 5. There were a number of records from the neighboring states of Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut and New Jersey. Connecticut has 8 records, Massachusetts had 12 records, Vermont had 8 and New Jersey had 22 records. 6. Residence was also indicated from the following states: Arkansas, Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, New Hampshire, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia. 7. The only foreign country listed was Canada. 8. The following organizations (hospitals, nursing homes, religious institutions) were indicated as the residence; Albany Hospital-6, Leonard Hospital-30, Marshall's Sanitarium-5, McCarthy Rest Home-4, Nightingale Home-7, Samaritan Hospital-24, St. Mary's Hospital-6, St. Joseph's Maternity Hospital- 3, Troy Hospital-79, Home for the Aged-6, Sisters of the Good Shepherd-10, Little Sisters of the Poor-72 and the Welfare Home-13. 9. !3 Records were burials of Servicemen killed in Europe or the Pacific during World War II. G. There are now 17,009 interment records in the four Books of St. Mary's Cemetery records now on-line on the TIGS website. Book 5 of St. Mary's interments records is now being scanned. Hopefully you will find some of your ancestors listed in these interment records or in the 200,00 Irish and Non-Irish names in the various other data series on the Troy Irish Genealogy website. Regards, Bill McGrath TIGS Project Coordinator Clifton Park, NY

Author: PaulaCary31 Surnames: Welden / Cary Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.otsego/4908/mb.ashx Message Board Post: There is a Thomas Welden in a 1830 census in the town of Otsego. I was wondering if anyone has anymore information about him and his family. My great-great-great grandfather's, Joshua Cary, mother may have been a Minnie Welden. I can't find Joshua in any census' before 1840 or his parents John and Minnie Cary. There are quite a few Welden's in the area. This Thomas Welden has two males 20-29 in his household in 1830. Joshua would have been 21-23 years of age in 1830. His first child was born in 1831. So he may have gotten married after the 1830 census was taken because I can't find him and his wife Lucy or his parents in 1830. So, I'm wondering if he's living with one of his mother's relatives and what happened to his parents.If anyone has anything to tell me, I would greatly appreciate it.

However, So far I have Seth B. in Deerfield, Oneida Co. in 1830 and when first son was born in 1831. He was working on the building of the Erie Canal from what I have learned. He next showed up in Davenport in 1840, Harpersfield in 1850,Davenport in 1860, Davenport 1865, and Davenport 1880. Davenport Historian told me he was born in and raised in Otsego County but did not know name of parents and did not give me location. Unfortunately the early census records do not show childrens names. Location in Otsego County may help in identifying parents in 1810 Federal census, All help from all readers of posts would be appreciated. 1840 they lived on Webb hill. First son married a Webb, second son married a Harrington and daughter married a Grant. Thanks again, Judy. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
