Here is a trick that will lead you to an explanation of what happened and also lead you to possibly more info than you realized was available. Sometimes when a site is unavailable you can get back to it by stripping away the last parts of the URL (Uniform Resourse Locator). In this case, I clicked on the bad link. It opened a new window which said the site was unavailable. I clicked to put the cursor in the address bard with the bad link then placed the cursor just after the .com/ then deleted 'cemeterySearch.asp'. This takes you to the nnygenealogy.com 'main page' where there is an explanation of what they are doing, a working link to the (new) cemetery page and much more. Note that with *any* query it is best to include some info about surnames of interests. So much more, in fact, that I'm forwarding this note to a couple of other lists I subscribe to - St. Lawrence and Oswego counties.

This will list people who died from about 1961 and beyond who also qualified for social security. A search for Gladys Rich born 1894 did display one record. She died Oct. 1972 with last known residence Pelham, NY which is Weschester county. There is a link you can click on to request more info from social security for a fee. I'm not sure what the fee is but I belive it's about $20. This would assume she never married! I also searched 1896 (no hits) and 1895 (got a hit for a Gladys Rich in Penn.). Your query title was vague - note that I put her name in this response. You would expect Gladys to show up as a 6 year old or four year old on the 1900 census. Your closest public library may have high speed internet access and a subscription to ancestry.com or heritagequest.com. Ask at the library. If they have it (or know some other nearby library that has it) you can browse census images for the family. Some censuses are indexed by these subscription services but most are not. You can also visit your nearest LDS family history center and request census records on microfilm. Visit www.familysearch.org for more info. You would expect to see her as a dependent child in 1900 and 1910 but probably not 1920. If the family did not move around much you may find some good info. If you are pretty confident she was born in Canton or Watertown (they are in different counties and about 50 miles apart) you can contact the town clerk in each town about copies of a birth certificate. If you can locate obits for her parents, they might list her married name (if she married). Go to this site: http://www.nysl.nysed.gov/nysnp/ for info on old NY newspapers on microfilm available via interlibrary loan. In fact, you could research old papers for a birth announcement for her. That time period is well covered in both towns. If you have never researched old papers, it's a blast - you see all the old editorials, advertisements, classifieds, etc. Hope this helps - Russ Sprague Kensington, Maryland

Have you checked any census records? The 1870 census for the county is transcribed, indexed and online at the county site under usgenweb.org. The 1880 census is transcribed, indexed and online at www.familysearch.org. The 1915 (original) NY state census (and I believe also the 1905) are availble at the county courthouse in Canton but that's a bit of a trip from TX. There are many newspaper, cemetery, church and other records at the usgenweb site. If you have the full date of death, you could contact the county clerk for a copy of the death certificate. Many old NY state newspapers are available on microfilm. You may be able to locate an obit if you don't already have one. Do a google search for 'ny state newspaper project' which will display a link with more info.

I'm really just looking for info about my grandparents, mother and uncle. They lived in Ogdensburg for just a few years, then came back to Ohio, so there probably aren't any other MacDonalds in New York who would be related. Here's what I'm looking for: any information, such as address, occupation, school pictures, anything, on Claude F. MacDonald; his wife Blanche; their son Claude Jr.; and their daughter Janet. I think they all lived in Ogdensburg from about 1923-1927. Claude Jr. would have been between the ages of 3-7 years old, and Janet would have been 1-5 years old. I do know, from his military records, that Claude's address in 1924 was 314 Hamilton St. in Ogdensburg. He was trained as an aircraft mechanic in WWI, a profession he followed after the service, and that may have been his job in Ogdensburg. Claude and Blanche were divorced around 1929. He took custody of their son, and she took custody of their daughter. I'd like to find out if he returned to Ogdensburg afterwards, around 1929-1930. Thanks so very much!! Cynthia
