Hello All, I have been trying to find the name of the first wife of Gideon G. Sanford. They were married in 1833 or in early 1834. Their first son, James Harvey Sanford, was born in Dec 1834 in Rensselaer County. Gideon is listed in the 1840 Census living in Pittstown. I do not know if his wife is living at that time. Gideon was born about Sep 1809 in Rensselaer County to Benjamin Sanford and Hulda Gifford. Richard

On ancestry.com, public member trees, there is a Gideon Gifford Sanford, son of Benjamin Sanford & Hulda Gifford, married to Julia Ann Van Slyke, born 19 February 1826, died 21 February 1912, daughter of Richard Van Slyke & Gertrude Snyder, but the son James Harvey is not listed. No sources are listed. Other children are: Alice, Benjamin, Lois, Charles and Mary. ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Hayes To: nyrensse@rootsweb.com Sent: Saturday, June 28, 2008 7:24 AM Subject: [NYRENSSE] Rensselaer County Marriage Hello All, I have been trying to find the name of the first wife of Gideon G.

The following message about the Rensselaer County Marriage Index, which was sent to the Troy Irish Genealogy List, may be of interest to members of this list, especially the comments at the end of the message. List members may be interested in the status of the Troy Irish Genealogy Project of automating the 10 Volume Rensselaer County Marriage Index. 1. Volumes 1 to 5, with their 32,000 names, are currently on-line on the TIGS website, www.rootsweb.com/~nytigs/ 2. Volumes 6 and 7, with their 8,000 names, are now being transcribed. All of the Grooms records have been data entered, proof read and analyzed for errors. About 75% of the Brides names have already been transcribed. When the remaining Brides files are finished and analyzed for errors, the Grooms and Brides names will then be combined by the marriage number, and hopefully, by August, will be put on-line on the TIGS website. 3. Preliminary work has started on Volume 8, with it's 4,000 names. As previously mentioned, the index pages for this volume do not show the marriage number and the date of the marriage. Several local TIGS volunteers have already started to look up the names in the Marriage Book itself, to obtain this information and post it to the photocopy of the marriage index page. Once that work has been done, the index page can then be scanned and sent to a transcriber. 4. The final two index books, Volumes 9 and 10, are similar to Volume 8, in that the index page does not show all the necessary information and look-ups in the Marriage Book will be required to obtain the missing data before the pages can be transcribed. The following comments about the marriage index may be of interest to family researchers. Having worked on the first 7 volumes of the index, I have observed that, in many cases, the place of birth or residence of the Bride and Groom and even the place of the marriage itself, is OUTSIDE of Rensselaer County and even OUTSIDE New York State. As an example, a record I was looking at the other day had the Groom residing and born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania., the Bride residing in Detroit, Michigan, born in Jamestown, Pennsylvania and the wedding taking place in Troy. In looking up several family names on the index, I have also found prior marriages for the individuals that were not known to me. So don't discount checking out the index because it is Rensselaer County and your relatives didn't live there. You never know what you will find! Regards, Bill McGrath TIGS Project Coordinator Clifton Park, NY

Hello, Edie Do you recognise a Platt CUTTING? He was born in about 1831 in New York City and died 11 Feb 1910 in Ghent, Columbia Co NY. His mother may have been a Phebe. Platt married Susan ___ and had children (all born in NY state) Mary F. CUTTING b October 1854, Charlotte CUTTING (c1849-1860s), Leonard P. CUTTING b c1861 and Charles W. CUTTING (b c1864). Platt CUTTING may have had siblings Frances, Charlotte A., Leonard M. and Sarah M. CUTTING. Something of a nomad, Platt CUTTING resided in Huntington, Suffolk Co NY (Long Island); in Greenbush, Rensselaer Co NY; in New York City; and in Ancram, Columbia Co NY. Late in life, it would appear, Platt CUTTING fathered a child by Laura C. STUART or STEWART (1875-1910): Charles STUART, born 5 April 1892 in Ghent, Columbia Co NY, died in 1861. Charles's birth record names his father as Platt Cutting age 61 and names his mother as Laura Stuart age 17. Do you recognise any of these names? Thank you for any assistance you can offer.
