From "Abstracts of Early Wills of Queens Co, NY: Recorded in Libers A & C of Deeds now in the Registers Office at Jamaica, NY, 1683-1744" - described as microfilm of typed manuscript at the Queens Borough Public Library in Jamaica, NY, part of the LI Collection, WPA Proj. No. 165-97-6999(6115) These 2 abstracts are basically the same, but differ in details. The former mentions monetary bequests to daughters & an inventory, while the latter does not. The latter mentions "Rocky Hill No. 46" while the former does not. Does Liber A still exist? If not, there must be yet another version from which both of these abstracts were taken in the 1930s.

Re: Miss Nellie Higgins; unfortunately all the information I have for her is the date the article was in the paper in Decatur, Illinois (Aug 1927), her name as given (Miss Nellie Higgins) and the place she was living (Brooklyn, NY). Can you tell me more about the source of your information about Miss Nellie Higgins? Does it give anymore information? Since I have so little information, I can't afford to rule out any information from any source.

A person can also be found by using first name if yoou have a birthdate. This is very interesting and certainly pertains to genealogy. I have a person who is missing since 1978. She would only be 56/57 years old today. She was married in California and no one has heard of her since. She may be divorced and remarried. She can't be found by either maiden or married name. Her husband also seems to be impossible to find as well, so we can't ask him. One person showed up in the SSDI with her first name and exact birth date. But this means nothing. She's still a young woman and the likelihood is she's still alive somewhere, using a different surname. Can she be declared dead? What if she's not, and is declared dead? Kevin, do you know the Statute of Limitations in California?

It lists her nieces. Stella has moved but is listed at intelus. I have a note in my old address book that they were cousins to either my maternal grandfather or grandmother. Another online posting says a Wincenty married an Antoinette b. 16 Jan 1895 d. Jan 1968 Flushing , Problem is the only children listed are a Sophie and Eugene. Maybe they are not the same family???
