HIRAM C HAMMOND, according to his Civil War pension file, died September 6, 1918. Initially we thought he died in Norwood NY, however, Norwood NY has no record of his death, nor does Norfolk NY nor Potsdam NY nor the NY Vital Records in Albany NY. His CW pension file lists him as having PO adresses in both Norwood NY and West Stockholm NY. Inasmuch as Norwood does not have his death information, he may have died in West Stockholm NYand was buried there. Are there any listings for cemeteries in West Stockholm NY? HIRAM C HAMMOND was born 1837 in Stockholm NY. He was a Civil War veteran, 16th NY Inf Co F and also re-enlisted in Co D 13th NY Vol Calvary. He was married to Elizabeth and they had daughters, Minnie, Clara & Cynthia. He also had a son. He lived in Wisconsin for a short time. My research indicates Hiram is most likely part of our Hammond family who lived in St Lawrence County NY and we would appreciate any information on his parents, his descendants and his place of death/burial. Thank you. Cindy
