Folks, AB Carpenter book pg. 82 lists ch. of "John Carpenter 74 of John 24" This is regarding the listed children of JOHN 74 and his wife RUTH COE. # 295 Ruth. Her bd was given as "about 1720" which has to be in total error as she married first: EPHRAIM MARSTON "Jan 15 1781" who was listed as killed in the Battle of Minisink (I have seen no record of children born to them - were there any?) married next: PETER STAGG "April 29, 1788." ___________________________________________________________________ GENESA County recrods April 1, 1843 The people of the state of New York To: MAHALA STAGE, JAMES STAGE, ISAAC N.

Historical and Biographical Record pg 1125 notes that Roswell CARPENTER Coleman son of James CARPENTER Coleman who married Phoebe Meade was gr. grandson of Benjamin b 1755 who m Hannah (CARPENTER) Finch who was born 1761 (that would be the mother not the dau. above). It further states that "she" and "her" father's family were refugees of the Wyoming Massacre (1779). Does anyone know if HANNAH CARPENTER dau or wife of JOHN FITCH married BENJAMIN COLEMAN? Were the FITCH or CARPENTER families refugees of WYOMING massacre? I would like to exchange CARPENTER information with anyone who might like to help me straighten out this CARPENTER FAMILY HISTORY. Several of us have been trying 1. Figure out this "family." 2. Identify Ruth Coe and find the marriage record of John Carpenter and Ruth Coe. 3. Follow the descendants of the listed children to try to verify the ancestors. Any assistance would be welcome. Thank you, Phoebe in CA

Looking for information on the marriage of James Jenkins to Mary Duvee. They had two children that I know of: William, born 1714 and John, born 1725. Any information would be helpful. Tom Jenkins from Texas tjenkins@ghg.net

In the 1892 NY state census my wife's g-grandfather is listed as a "Lather" as is his brother. I've looked in the Webster's Collegiate Dictionary but did not get a satisfactory answer as to what a "Lather" is.Is this an operator of a lathe? Like a turner? or is it someone who applys lath to walls prior to plastering? Or has it something to do with soapsuds (lather)? Can anyone help? Thanks Walt Jones Spoknae WA

I probably cannot be of much help down here in Virginia but I lived in Suffern NY which is about 15 or so miles from Nyack. The memorial plaques on the town memorial were to the men who served in our foreign wars. In fact my brother's name is on it for Viet Nam.

A couple of weeks ago, I received a telephone call from CA from: Robert WOORE 175 North McKelzy Avenue Clovis, CA 93611 E-Mail: gramabarb@aol.com He is looking for information on his ggf, Thomas RICHES/RITCHIE, who was shown as a seaman/sailor in the 1860 Census and as a LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEER IN THE 1870 Census. He was not found in 1830 or 1840. He went to Chicago at age 18 and d. there in 1901. He m. in Chicago, 1858. The 1900 Census shows that he was b. May 1832, probably in Haverstraw to immigrant parents, who were b. England. His father probably worked in the brick industry and may have been named Alexander. His first son, Alexander was b. 1859 in Chicago. Thomas' wife was Irish (name Birgit (later called Delia) Lawless). She was Catholic. Thomas is not believed to have been Catholic, but may have converted. Bob's g-m was Mary/May RICHES/RICHIE. She was bp. Holy Family, Chicago. Can anyone help with resources or information? Bob
