In 1880 he is indexed as SWENE. I don`t find him on the 1850 but William & Elizabeth Swem are in Fowler then, both born in New Jersey. This site has the Fullerville Cemetery in Fowler. William Swem is there as well as some other Swems. http://tinyurl.com/3wknu5 On the NNYLN site a search of the St. Lawrence newspapers turned up a 1917 obit for 79 year old Margaret Smith whose first husband was Fowler Swem. It gives her birthplace as Jamestown, NY & her parents as Stephen & Amelia Clancy Carpenter. It also says Fowler Swem died Feb. 20, 1884.

Author: rcf112 Surnames: Swem, Cheney Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.saintlawrence/16218/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm looking for information on the family of Adele Swem, born in Spragueville in 1857. She was my Great Grandmother. Father's name was Fowler Swem - found him in the 1850 census living in Fowler, interesting enough - but nothing in the censuses before or after. Adele married Charles William Cheney in Wegatchee on 27 Aug. 1875. CW was working as a timber estimator in a logging camp at the time and family history has it that Adele was working as a cook at the camp. They had two children, Claude and Dewitt. This has been a dead end for me for quite a few years despite the fact that I knew Swems when I was growing up in Carthage. Don't know if they were related to us, though. If anyone has any information on her family, I would greatly appreciate letting me know either on here or at [email protected] Thanks Bob Forsythe Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi Renne; If you go to Findagrave.com, and enter your Old Pine Grove Cemetery, there is a photo of the Cemetery entrance. There are no Sherwood's listed but the name and Email address of the person taking the photo are listed. You might contact her and see if she is close enough to take a look for your family.
