    3. Greetings all, Would anyone know where the original Marriage Records or Marriage Intentions are for the Tappan Dutch Reformed Church or the Kakiat Dutch Reformed Church? In Volume #101, Number 4, October 1970 issue of the N.Y. G. & B., an article appears called "The Irregular Dutch Reformed Churches of Tappan and Kakiat, Rockland County, New York", by Howard I. Durie and George Olin Zabriskie. In this article appears the Marriage Intention of the ancestor I am looking for. The marriage intention states he was born in "philips burgh" and the authors of the articles have assumed this means Tarrytown. I have searched for Frederick Post in Tarrytown and the Philipsburgh Estate for 25 years and can find no record. I am now questioning the information provided by the above mentioned Marriage Intention and would like to see if I can find the original documents. Please know that I do not question the abilities of the authors - they were both known as fine historians and genealogists and contributed a tremendous amount of research material for Rockland County and Bergen County researchers. I simply am at such a "dead end", that I would like to see for myself, if I am following the wrong trail. Any assistance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Louise E. Post, British Columbia, Canada
