I was told that my Gilbert H. Van Houten of Veteran, Chemung County, NY was the son of Aaron Van Houten of Ithaca. In Aaron's will he has a son named Gilbert. But it doesn't say where Gilbert was living at the time of Aaron's death or Gilbert's age at the time of Aaron's death. I then looked for property deeds for the land that was mentioned in the will. I wasn't able to located a property deed for Gilbert inheriting land from his father Aaron. Is there anyone who can help me figure this out or maybe make a suggestion as to where I can look next. Also, does anyone know where Aaron/Adrian Van Houten is buried? I looked at the cemetery lists on the Tompkins County gen web site but I wasn't able to find him listed. I look forward to hearing from someone. Thanks, S. Rozell --------------------------------- Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. Make PC-to-Phone Calls to the US (and 30+ countries) for 2¢/min or less.
