I think now the reference I found was to signers of the Articles of association. John, Thomas and William are (all too) common Maine clan names. After this reference, I can't find any of them in Ulster Co. There was a William in Orange. His brother, Jeremiah was a signer of the Articles there. This Ulster William might be the same (William of Orange Co. was born in NJ). Actually, I'm hoping Trickeys here might lead me to the real focus of my search (my GGG, Daniel). All I know of him is that he was born in the US and married a Sarah Arnold. My GG was born in NY, so I know Daniel was there in 1804. I have researched the Trickeys of Orange Co right down to living relatives. As for Ulster Co, there is a likely relationship, but I just started digging into them. Thanks for your help. Let me know if you ever hear of a Daniel Trickey in Ulster. Regards, Al Trickey in Ulster.
