We have received many responses from kind individuals regarding both accommodations and helpful search methods. Thank you all. Surnames we are researching: Fredendall/Frydendall; Hick; Rees[e]; Turnbull; Young. These families lived in the Schenectady,Albany, Montgomery, Fulton, Schoharie, and Madison and Oneida Counties. We are going to focus our research on Schenectady,Albany, Schoharie, and Montgomery areas as this is where they ancestors lived 1700s-mid1860s. Both MCDHA and SCHS did some basic research for us earlier this year and we hope to be able expand upon that research in conjunction with other documentation. We will be in the area for about 3 weeks and hopefully can accomplish some worthwhile research and on weekends enjoy the sights and scenery.
