This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Ritterbusch, Butler Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jUB.2ACI/711 Message Board Post: Does anyone know where to find Long Island city/town directories? Maybe they are available on microfilm at some of the libraries there? Specifically I'm looking for the town of Southold in the 1860's. My husband has ancestors who were married there in 1865, but then moved to Illinois: George Edward RITTERBUSCH & Elizabeth BUTLER (married Dec 25, 1865, First Church of Southold/Presbyterian Church) We have no idea what they were doing on Long Island or what the connection was. I thought if we could see what other Ritterbusch and Butler families were listed in the directories we might find their siblings or parents.
