This is an amazing transcription, and I just wanted to say thank you. Although I did not find any of my own surnames, I enjoyed reading the names and seeing where the names of local towns and roads no doubt came from. Also many surnames the same as some of the original settlers of Westchester County. Thank you again for a wonderful job.

Thanks, Donna. I was thinking that if anyone really wants to KEEP this data, printing it out may be wise. This will be online as long as I have the 0catch site, but if I do something wild, like dying, let's say, it'll be toast. Coralynn -------------------------------------------------- From: "Donna K.
