I found the site without a problem and I like the small map of the counties, that is valuable. Perhaps one should try again and check one's spelling. Marjorie in SC

I don't know what part of Rensselaer Co. (or what county) you're looking for, but two possibilities for the 1855 Census are: www.census-online.com click the census listing click New York state click Rensselaer Co. (or whatever) review for your listing. OR www.familysearch.com scan down to the Family History Center Nearest You search box enter your town to find the FHC closest to you. They'll be glad to help guide you at no charge go back to the Home page click the tab at the top for FH Library click Library Catalog click Place type in Rensselaer (or whatever) scan the Census listings. If you're looking for 1855 specifically and don't see the town you want (remember a "town" in NYS is the same as "township" in other states - a division of the county; not the actual village) click on the Secretary of State listing. It will be the most complete. Not all STATE Census records have survived. P.S. I'm interested in Abraham and John Garrison who served in Albany 14th Militia during the Revolutionary War; lived in the Pittstown area. NO, they do NOT descend from Abraham and Maria (Brower) Garrison! --- "Dorothy P. Keith" <[email protected]> wrote: > I don't know about on-line.

Hi Kathie, I also am descended from a Garrison who lived in Dutchess Co. Sarah Garrison m. John Haviland, I do not have dates for them but John's father, Adam, was b. prior to 1698 in Flushing. John and Sarah had children: Hannah, James, Garrison, John b. 1758, Charles and Rebecca. The Haviland family were Quakers mentioned in the Oblong meetings. I descend from their first mentioned child, Hannah who m. Ebenezer Arnold and lived at Hoosic, Rensselaer Co, NY, their daughter, Phoebe Arnold m. Moses Armstrong and spent their later years in Monroe Co, NY. I have no idea who Susan Garrison's parents were or where they came from. The Haviland family moved from Newport R.I. to Rye, NY. Newport R.I. might be a good place to look for your Garrison family. I have a copy of a portion of burials in Providence Cemetery, Pleasant Plains, Dutchess, NY: "Van Vliet, Elizabeth, dau. of Cornelius Van Vliet & Helena Garrison b. 1792, Dec. 15, d. 1795, July 13. Van Vliet, Helena Garrison, w. of Cornelius, & dau. of Captain Joost Garrison & Magdelena Van Dyke b. 1757, Mar. 12, d. 1801, June 10 Van Vliet, Rachel, dau of Cornelius Van Vliet & Helena Garrison b. 1788, apr 30, d. 1870, Mar. 15 Van Vliet, Richard Garrison, s. of Cornelius Van Vliet & Helena b. 1801, June 10, d. 1801, Dec. 5. Van Vliet, William B., s. of Cornelius Van Vliet & Helena Garrison b. 1793, Sep 27, d. 1811, Jul 28." In the 1790 Census, Dutchess Co, NY I found the following: Clifton Town Peter Garrison Clinton Town Harry Garrison Frederickstown Town David Garretson Phillipstown Town Abraham Garrison Isaac Garrison I hope you can find something of interest or at least a clue from this.

I'm a newbie (to this list anyway). I have been slowly researching my Garrison ancestors in Wayne County NY and recently acquired a family group sheet (FGS) dated 1983. It shows my g-g-g-grandfather Martin Garrison being born in Rensclaar County NY. I'm hoping that she meant Rensselaer County and someone on the list can assist me in finding out more about him and his wife, Dorothy. I have added an outline of the little I know of this family. The all caps are the info from this FGS. The family is in Sodus Wayne County by around 1818 if not before. I have US census listing Martin Garrison in 1810, 1820 & 1830 in Duchess or Green Counties but I am not sure if it is "my" Martin. 1840 and beyond census show this family in Wayne County. I have a copy of his will but the only info is that it confirms all the children excepting Martin Jr. Can anyone add anymore to this line or send me in the right direction?
