Surnames: Troy Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3RB.2ACE/386 Message Board Post: I am searching for the gravesite of Hugh Troy my gggrandfather who lived with his son John Troy in Spencer, N.Y. He and John came to the US from Ireland around 1852 and he lived in the home John purchased in Spencer, N.Y. The 1860 census shows Hugh living with John, Tioga County, Spencer, N.Y. and being 65 years old at that time - so he may have been born in 1795 Ireland. Hugh does not appear in the Tioga County,Spencer,NY census for 1870 but John does, so Hugh may have died between 1860 and 1870. Later in the 1800's John moved to Tompkins County, Ithaca, N.Y and built a house which is now located on the Troy Road,Ithaca, N.Y. and all evidence does not show Hugh living with him in 1884. I need to make an Ireland connection for Hugh so I can explore Irish ancestors - and I would appreciate any suggestions or information as to how I can locate Hugh's grave site and death date.

Hi there list - I am new at this list and would like to know if someone is researching the Colby Family in Owego, Tioga County - New York - And if so which ;ine ? THANKS Ken colby46@mindspring.com

Found this book on ebay and thought even if you don't want the book the full names might help someone place a family members whereabouts during that time! How neat, I like when they put names to their books they sell. This is the url to this one, although there might be more books similar is you do a search. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1729937512 Hope that helps someone, Jamie

I would like to welcome those of you new to this site and tell you there are some really great folks who are willing to help just for the asking. I, myself do Volunteer research at Andersonville Civil War Prison in Andersonville Georgia. There are Any research I do is absolutely at NO cost and I am willing to do what I can. There are more that 6200 prisoners on record from the state of New York and more than 2300 who died here, I thought I would send my offer. Here are my sources of research. There are 2 online databases to do lookups.....One by name...one by Company and Regiment. I also have a copy of the Dorence Atwater Death list which has the names and grave numbers of some 13000 graves with only 460 marked as " UNKNOWN " This along with a CD I have which contains 34,000 names of the 45,000 who were imprisoned there which helps me find prisoner records because of misspellings of the names or alternate names. I visit the prison site every couple of weeks and have access to the onsite databases as well as the physical files. I would like to let you know of another service I offer which is to take photos of graves for a small fee. .I also wish to thank the patience of those regular subscribers for my frequent postings. If there is anything I can do in helping your research at Andersonville, please just ask.
