Can anyone tell me how to find out what was at a certain location in Troy? In 1859, my great-great grand-uncle William Davis worked as a porter at 199 River. I'd like to find out what was there. Thank you. Kathy Campbell Jacksonville, FL

Is there someone in Troy who would be willing to do a lookup for me at Surrogates Court? It is my last for burial information on an ancestor. I have the date and have exhausted vital, cemetery and church records. Unfortunately I will not be in Troy this summer and would like to lay this one to rest. Please contact me directly at my email address. Thanks. Nancy Nancy Musselwhite [email protected]

Cindy~ Did you know that the library in Schaghticoke is named after the Diver family? I'm sure you'll find more info on this family there. ~ Pam Cynthia Mac Suibhne <[email protected]> wrote: I'd like to add the surname DIVER to my query made the other day.

In the 1860 census Richard DIVER is living in the next house and George MILLS has Sidney DIVER and son George living with them.
