My gggg grandfather was Daniel Lambertson who was born in 1827, married Delia Louw (sp?) who was born in 1828 - they had 8 children: William Henry, Sarah Etta, Lucy, John Fremont, Monte, Carrie, Nettie, and Mary. To my knowledge Nettie and Mary were born in Michigan but I believe all the rest born in NY (Carrie born 1865). Delia's death certificate shows her father as Jonathan Louw and mother Caroline Johnson - no parent info on Daniel's. ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried contacting Cornell? They do have some regional genealogical materials at Olin Library. You also might try researching PERSI (Allen Library in Indiana). I've received very early marriage or obituary records from there re. Ithaca area newspapers. Also the D.A.R. inventoried many cemeteries and other records in the early 20th century. They are located online at http://www.dar.org You can order photocopies from them even if you are not a member.

I am having a difficult time with my Asher Covert... he shows up on the Dryden census in 1810, he married Eleanor Johnson, daughter of Peter Johnson, in either 1808 or 1809. I haven't found his birth record or exact marriage date or obituary (if there was one!) either. I believe they were Dutch Reformed Church so I am hoping there will be some record.

Wooby of Ithaca? The parents of John Porter Wooby of Lyons were John and Mary E. (Newport) Wooby. His grandparents were John and Clarissa (Jacobs) Wooby - John was born in Virginia and Clarissa was most likely born in Maryland. I will definitely look for Ithaca City directories . Again thank you.

This may, or may not help you. For what it's worth, Thos Eaton who came to Ulysses before 1820 had a sister who married Garrett Furman in NYC. Thos and his sister Mary were born on L.Is. NY. Garrett & Mary Furman had some children including at least 2 sons, so it might be possible this is one of their sons? eileen ----- Original Message ----- From: <kippie@comcast.net> To: <NYTOMPKI-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, April 03, 2006 11:08 AM Subject: [NYTOMPKI] William & Catherine FURMAN > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4RB.2ACE/3111 > > Message Board Post: > > William & Catherine FURMAN (Forman) bought land in Military Tract Lot 89 > in the Town of Ulysses from Samuel Giles in 1814. > > William and Caty FURMAN sold the same Lot 89 in 1815.

Am trying to track John Porter Wooby, born about 1866 in Lyons, NY. Found an obit in a Syracuse paper for a Mrs. Jane Wooby, died in Ithaca in March 1955, widow of John P. Wooby [do not know if this is the right John Porter Wooby]. Mrs. Wooby was buried from AME Zion Church with burial in family plot in City Cemetery. Obit indicated Mrs. Wooby had been resident of Ithaca for many years, and was survived by grandchildren and great granchildren. Have not been able to find her in any census. Have not located John P. Wooby in any census after 1892. Would appreciate any information on this family.
