It is still publish and some time ago there was a local Edmeston newspaper also. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 15, 2011 5:01 PM Subject: [NYOTSEGO] 1933 obituary? > Greetings! > > I would like to find an obituary for a person buried in the West > Burlington > Village Cemetery. > > Mary E.

Greetings! I would like to find an obituary for a person buried in the West Burlington Village Cemetery. Mary E. Lont died in 1933. Could someone tell me what newspaper might have carried an obituary for her? Would it have been one in Utica? Thank you Nancy Anderson

Asa died in 1829 in Watson, Lewis, New York. The affadavit was filed in Onondaga County, New York listing both sisters as residents of Lafayette. Arminda's husband, Elder Randolph Streeter, was pastor of the Baptist Church in Lafayette. On the affadavit she is listed as Phebe Bennett. Her husband's name is not mentioned in the Pension File. I am trying to determine who her husband was, any children and when and where she died. Some online trees list Phebe's husband as Dudley Bennett s/o Jared Bennett and Parthena West who were early settlers of Smyrna, New York. Dudley married Phebe Loper d/o Job Loper and Phebe Peck. Phebe Loper was born several months after Phebe Gould. Most of the male children of Asa Gould and Elizabeth Hamlin settled in Cherry Valley, Otsego, New York. Three of the female children are known to have resided in Onondaga County in the 1830's - 1840's. Arminda Gould Streeter, Phebe Gould Bennett and Hannah Gould Wright w/o Elder Judah Wright of the Lysander Baptist Church. Thank you.

Her mother died in Bloomington, IL in 1861. John Ivins and his second wife, Alice, appear in Chicago in 1870 without Josephine. I'm assuming she moved to Oswego County ca 1861-1870.

This is helpful. I had found her in the 1880-1920 censuses but couldn't find her in 1870. I have seen the name Ivins spelled many ways (Ivens, Ivans, Ibans, Ivons, Joins, even Evans) and looked under the obvious variants and possible mistranscriptions but Irvin was one I hadn't thought of.

Thank you for your information. I am wondering if my g-g-grandmother could have descended from one of these families. I believe my best bet would be to try searching in Ancestry for family trees to see if any of the families went to PA or OH. If she wouldn't have married a William Jones (too common of a name) it would be so much easier to trace. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

How would you recommend I get further information on the Francis C. Shute family? Francis' father was Andrew Shute and his mother was Sarah Crush. They lived in Ostego Co. for many years and initially were Quakers, I think. Should I write to the Methodist church in Morris? I am kicking myself because a year ago we were in Cooperstown, Clinton, Whitesboro,and general area researching my husband's family. I have so little info on the Shutes that they never crossed my mind. I would love to know more about their lives in Ostego. I wonder when they came to America, etc. I would be grateful for any suggestions. Diana Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
