I didn't find any family members (sniff) but I will be looking at this again. It never ceases to amaze me that people are willing to make this kind of effort to deliver information to the world via the Internet. Thank you very much.

PLEASE let me know if the name of an individual you may know well, as in he/she is in your Tree, is mangled and you can solve the problem of "the name is WHAT?!!"   I only have one more section to transcribe. http://song-page-coralynn.0catch.com/TRANSCRIPTIONS/Rensselaer%20County%20Wi lls/CONTENTS.html Cheers, Coralynn B. ====NY-RENSSE Mailing List==== Check out the mailing list's website at: http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/NYRensse/ Don't forget the Rensselaer County Message Board:  http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.r ensselaer/mb.ashx ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NYRENSSE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ====NY-RENSSE Mailing List==== Check out the mailing list's website at: http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/NYRensse/ Don't forget the Rensselaer County Message Board: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.re nsselaer/mb.ashx ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NYRENSSE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ====NY-RENSSE Mailing List==== Check out the mailing list's website at: http://www.connorsgenealogy.com/NYRensse/ Don't forget the Rensselaer County Message Board: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.re nsselaer/mb.ashx ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to NYRENSSE-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
