Can anyone advise me how and where I can locate the records of Our Lady of Angles cemetery records ?? Bob Farrell

Hello Lists, Sharing a new source I've only recently learned about. In addition to the 1840 US Census, there was a separate 1840 pensioner list. To determine how much money to allocate for Military Pensions for soldiers of the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, etc., Congress deemed it necessary to have military pensioners specially enumerated in the 1840 census. Enumerators were directed to list the names and ages of each pensioner in a given household, even if those pensioners were NOT the head of the household. The information on military pensioners was published for the Census Department in 1841 by Blair and Rives, a Washington printing company. Although availabe in print form and microfilm since that time, it was not easy to obtain or access, according to Bryon C. Bray who wrote an article in the National Genealogical Society's NewsMagazine, Sept/Oct 2003. The 1840 Census of Pensioners has been indexed and placed on the Web as a searchable database. Be AWARE that any location in what is now Wyoming County, New York, will be under Genesee County, as Wyoming County was not formed until 1841. www.usgennet.org/usa/topic/colonial/census/1840 Good luck!

Wyman ,railroad station agent, died from an attack of acute indigestion, from which he had long suffered, and the heart trouble attending the disease. These attacks were irregular and severe. Up to Tuesday afternoon Mr. Wyman was at his office and apparently enjoying the best of health. That night he suffered another attack which twenty-four hours later proved fatal. His age was fifty-eight years. Mt. Wyman was born in Otego and came to Granville thirty-six years ago, succeeding Charles W. Rasey as telegraph operator at the Granville office, then in charge of the late J. H. Reynolds. On the retirement of Mr. Reynolds,on account of old age, Mr. Wyman was appointed to his position. In January, 1882, Mr. Wyman was married to Miss Ella Woodard, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Woodard, who survives, together with one daughter, Miss Lucille Wyman. Mr. Wyman's death occasions profound surprise and sorrow in a community in which he has long been a representative citizen and prominent factor. he took a deep interest in every movement that tended to the advantage and prosperity of the village and town. he has been village trustee, village president and at the time of his death was a member of the school board and president of the Granville Board of Trade. In addition to his wife and daughter , the deceased is survived by three brothers, L. B. Wyman of Schenectady, E. O. Wyman of Otego, and E. J. Wyman of Long Island City. The funeral arrangements have not yet been arranged. The editor of the Sentinel feels a personal loss in the death of Mr. Wyman, who located in Granville just two years after the former had launched the Sentinel. Mr. Wyman has always been his valued friend and took deep interest in the success of the paper. He was an ideal man, true and abiding in his friendship. He lived a clean life, and was a perfect and affectionate husband and father. But---"Friend after friend departs, Who has not lost a friend ? P.S. There is also a photo of Mr. Wyman.

A milk train, running close to forty miles an hour, crashed into the rear of a work train on the Rutland branch of the Delaware and Hudson system between Rexleigh and Shushan Saturday afternoon, but strangely enough no one, including the engineer Charles Munson of the milk train, who stuck to his post , was injured seriously. This is even more remarkable, because the cars of the work train were chained to the track to better enable the work of unloading the stone with which holes in the roadbed caused by the recent storm were being repaired. A flagman had been set back by the work train to warn the milk train, but he went to sleep, being awakened as the milk train dashed by. The milk train rounded the curve, and the fireman saw the work train just ahead. He jumped and was slightly hurt. Engineer Munson applied the emergency brakes and plowed through the caboose and two flat cars. he was considerably jarred. A wrecking train came Saturday from the north, but could not work from that end, and the tracks were cleared Sunday afternoon. About 100 men, all about the work train,escaped with a bad fright.

Recently he blew out forty-five pounds of lead and silver bearing rock which he has sent to be analyzed. Mr. Roberts has spent years among the mines of Missouri and Colorado and declares that all the indications of minerals in those states are to be found in the Shaftsbury rocks. Mr. Roberts says the mineral lies in the fissure between two rock formations, the same as elsewhere. He does not profess to be a wizard of gone "nutty" over the find, but is confident that silver and lead in paying quanties can be mined in Vermont.
