Hi Madeline, As far as NY State Divorces, they are sealed for 100 years to the day, and repose in the county of divorce. NY County has an in-person searchable index at the Division of Old Records. There, even if a divorce is too "recent" to obtain a copy, it is possible to discover the date of a marital action. There is a NY State Index for BMDs from 1881+, but it is not online. NYC-NARA has a copy, and there about 6-8 others around the state, including one in Nassau County. At one time a Brooklyn list member offered free look-ups to those out of the area. You might check Brooklyn List's Archives. This is the NY State Death Index for 1957 - 1963.>>> https://health.data.ny.gov/Health/Genealogical-Research-Death-Index-Beginning-1957/vafa-pf2s NYS DEATH SEARCH ENGINE In the box to the bottom right, enter first and surnames. Then, go below that and click on "Add a new filter location." Be sure to note all information on the same line, especially the county code number. My link to county code #s is not working now. I hope this answers your questions.

Listers Is there an online index to N.Y. STATE B/M/D & Divorces searchable by surname only??? If so, would appreciate links and instructions to navigate. I know years ago, the only index was microfilm in Albany, and you had to go to personally research. However, I think they later shared their indexes with some libraries, and I am wondering if it might now be online??? Would appreciate your advice. TUIA. Madeline

I came upon this death section on the NYC Dept Health & Mental Hygenie's website>. http://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/services/death-certificates.page "Burials at the City Cemetery - In New York City, if private funeral arrangements are not made, remains of stillborn infants more than 24 weeks gestation are sent for burial to the City cemetery located at Hart Island, Bronx, NY, commonly known as Potter's Field, by the Office of the City Medical Examiner.

I'm hoping some list member(s) might offer some NYC burial records insights and information for an 1895 NYC burial of someone who died outside NYC. George Western was buried 15 April 1895 in an Evergreens (Brooklyn) Cemetery grave. His wife Elizabeth Western, who died 13 December 1899 in Manhattan (IGG death index, cert 34674), is buried with him. However, George Western did not die in NYC (not found using Stephen Morse's One Step IGG search or FamilySearch NYC deaths for 1898 modern NYC records). I believe he died in St. Louis in March 1895 but death registrations weren't required until many years later. He appears in only one St. Louis Directory: 1895-96, living with his daughter but does not appear in the directories just before or after this one. This was a family of modest means and prominence and limited searching of online St. Louis newspapers tuned up nothing. Available NYCMA's Bodies in Transit records span 1859-1894 (see below online document found concerning this record group) and appear to be needed only for bodies shipped through NYC. But if such a record might have been generated for this burial, what information might it contain and where might it be found? Was a burial permit required for a 1895 Evergreens burial? If so were would this record be found and what information would it likely contain? Any other NYC records that might provide insights for George Western's date and place of death?

"The Names" By Billy Collins Published: September 6, 2002 Yesterday, I lay awake in the palm of the night. A fine rain stole in, unhelped by any breeze, And when I saw the silver glaze on the windows, I started with A, with Ackerman, as it happened, Then Baxter and Calabro, Davis and Eberling, names falling into place As droplets fell through the dark. Names printed on the ceiling of the night. Names slipping around a watery bend. Twenty-six willows on the banks of a stream. In the morning, I walked out barefoot Among thousands of flowers Heavy with dew like the eyes of tears, And each had a name -- Fiori inscribed on a yellow petal Then Gonzalez and Han, Ishikawa and Jenkins. Names written in the air And stitched into the cloth of the day. A name under a photograph taped to a mailbox. Monogram on a torn shirt, I see you spelled out on storefront windows And on the bright unfurled awnings of this city. I say the syllables as I turn a corner -- Kelly and Lee, Medina, Nardella, and O'Connor. When I peer into the woods, I see a thick tangle where letters are hidden As in a puzzle concocted for children. Parker and Quigley in the twigs of an ash, Rizzo, Schubert, Torres, and Upton, Secrets in the boughs of an ancient maple. Names written in the pale sky. Names rising in the updraft amid buildings. Names silent in stone Or cried out behind a door. Names blown over the earth and out to sea. In the evening -- weakening light, the last swallows. A boy on a lake lifts his oars. A woman by a window puts a match to a candle, And the names are outlined on the rose clouds -- Vanacore and Wallace, (let X stand, if it can, for the ones unfound) Then Young and Ziminsky, the final jolt of Z. Names etched on the head of a pin. One name spanning a bridge, another undergoing a tunnel. A blue name needled into the skin. Names of citizens, workers, mothers and fathers, The bright-eyed daughter, the quick son. Alphabet of names in green rows in a field. Names in the small tracks of birds. Names lifted from a hat Or balanced on the tip of the tongue. Names wheeled into the dim warehouse of memory. So many names, there is barely room on the walls of the heart. Billy Collins, native New Yorker, and American poet laureate. This poem was read before Congress this day at its joint session in New York City. Barb MizScarlettNY@aol.com

Hi James, Rather than working on supposition, I phoned Evergreen Cemetery (718) 455-5300. Your George WESTERN was buried on 14 April 1895 in the Bethel Slope section. George died at 66 years old in Mt. Vernon, Westchester County NY of asphyxia. (This is why we can't assume anything.)/// Please Note: l) SteveMorse.org and GGG/IGG does not list every BMD in NYC. Only an in-person death index search at NYC Muni Archives can confirm a vital record absolutely./// 2) When you can't find a death in NYC *after 1881,* I suggest checking the NY State Death Index./// 3) Since The Rural Cemetery Act of 1847 in NYC, burial permits were required and orchestrated by the funeral director./// 4) "Manhattan Bodies in Transit" films 1859-1894: Researchers should think of this more as the Port of NYC, not just Manhattan. All bodies passed through the Port of NY. I've searched these filmed ledgers multiple times and the last time for a death in Hunter NY on 30 August 1892. It was not listed. Clipped from way below in you post, a death record will include "name; age at death; death date and death place; cause of death; birth place; when her body passed through New York; the person responsible for certification; and the name and address of applicant."/// Barb MizScarlettNY@aol.com -----Original Message----- From: James Castellan <james.castellan@gmail.com> George Western buried 15 April 1895 in an Evergreens (Brooklyn) Cemetery grave.

What's holding you up from ordering your dad's World War 2 military records? If it's the "DD-214" copy, this may is valuable to you. DD-214...This was first used in 1950. It's a full-page, official U.S. Department of *Defense* certificate titled "Discharge from Active Duty" or "Certificate of Release" issued upon a veteran's retirement, separation, or discharge from the the U.S. Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force and Coast Guard. Essentially it's a synopsis of a veteran's military duty. DD-214 image> http://thisainthell.us/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/millard-dd214.jpg Prior to the establishment of the Department of Defense (September 18, 1949), our military served under the U.S. Department of the War. This agency provided a "separation" document known as "WD AGO." So, if you never found a copy of your dad's DD-214, chances are he never had one. Service time after 1950 required the usage of a DD-214, but you can request a file without one. The one exception that I'm aware of is IF your dad was injured during military service, he was kept on the government's radar so that his formal discharge date may have been a much later date than anticipated. My county veteran's specialist stressed that with common names it's most important to provide such differentiating specifics as: full name, including middle and Jr., Sr., etc; date and place of birth; Social Security number; branch of service and specialty; date entered service; if veteran was an officer or enlisted man; and, military ID number (found on dog tags.) Also advised is separating the veterans active duty time from his reservist time. When you file for a full file, your veteran's records may have to be gathered from the main base in St. Louis, as well as from other reservist duty sites in the U.S. After serving five years during WW2, my dad retired from the US Army Reserves as an officer. I'm submitting a simple timeline of my dad with my application. There, I'll stipulate a chronology of Dad's home address (from enlistment to death,) plus where he served in the reserves for two weeks each summer. IF your dad enlisted before WW2 was declared, or served active duty time after the war officially ended, you need to emphasis this. Ancestry.com has some basic military records to guide you.

Well, since no one seems to be able to help with a beginning tree, I've done my own research. So, I've answered my own query. So much for the easy route. It turns out there is a source to start with. So, I'm posting here, in case there are others in the future, or present with a similar desire. You can find some Sicard/Secor ancestry in the NYG&BS Record, Volume 68, pages 313-322. Once I get it typed into a database, in a few days. Anyone who would like a copy. Post a request either here (unless that is against list rules) or to this email. This is not my regular email, as I can't post from that email anymore, yet still appear to be on the list. I will begin to check it more frequently.  Brian On Friday, September 2, 2016 10:59 AM, Brian Densmore <densmorebrian789@yahoo.com> wrote: Without a timeframe and/or a location, it is very difficult to narrow down > what you might be looking for.

He was a Bourgeois Huguenot refugee. I could certainly grab one of them, but the problem is there are many bad and incorrect Secor/Sicard trees out there. I was hoping there was an actual Secor researcher on the list. I'm looking to create a one Family genealogy, for just Secor descendents of Ambroise. Both for my own benefit and that of others. I just didn't want to start from scratch. Hoping someone who has already filtered out the noise would help give me a leg up with 2 or 3 generations of Ambroise's tree, wth good sources.

Here's a great place to start with Westchester County Indexes. The county archives has many additional self-search records, including old directories and military records. Enjoy! Barb Dear Friends, These online indexes of the Westchester Archives include those who ever resided in Westchester County OR what later became the Bronx. Also, check these if ancestors lived in Manhattan, from Harlem north. TIP: Run each surname search through all 7!Include females in all searches. TIP: Search by SURNAME only. If you have a surname than often gets misspelled, search by the FIRST LETTER of the surname. This way you don't miss any possible ancestors, e.g., McGann vs Magann; Eliza vs Elizabeth 1) BUSINESS/INCORPORATIONS, 1876-1914; Searchable by surname or business name http://recordcenter.westchestergov.com/IncorporationsSearch.aspx 2) COURT RECORDS, 1768-1912, include Basterdy files http://recordcenter.westchestergov.com/CourtRecordsSearch.aspx DETAILS: http://archives.westchestergov.com/archives-faqs/court-records] 3) JAIL BLOTTER RECORDS INDEX, 1903-1938 by surname http://recordcenter.westchestergov.com/JailBlotterBookSearch.aspx 4) MARRIAGE LICENSES, 1908-1935; Brides & Grooms, Civil, pre-marriage, church marriage usually attached http://recordcenter.westchestergov.com/MarriagesSearch.aspx 5) NATURALIZATIONS, 1808-1955 http://recordcenter.westchestergov.com/NaturalizationSearch.aspx 6) SURROGATE RECORDS , 1775-1941= A + source for relationships ( Includes Wills*; Estate & Guardianship records; Letters of Administration) http://recordcenter.westchestergov.com/SurrogatesSearch.aspx * Additional Wills exist but have NOT been indexed here, but are searchable in person. 7) MISCELLANEOUS RECORDS--1840-1916, by surname http://archives.westchestergov.com/misc-personal-name-index---main- Questions?

I went to Rootsweb World Connect to search their family trees which people have uploaded and found hundreds, if not thousands, of entries for Ambroise Sicard. http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/ Have you searched there yet? If not, give it a try. The web site is free.

Hello list This is my Fourth attempt to post this query to the list. >From a new email address, as I can't seem to post and the list admin is not responding. Does anyone know of a well researched tree with source citations for Ambroise Sicard? Or is there anyone willing to share one? Preferably one that covers Ambroise, and 5 generations after him, but I'm interested in any that go beyond his children. Thanks, Brian

This story captured my attention last Sunday. 51 years ago a woman accompanied her two Nancy Drew fan daughters to an abandoned house in Airmont (Rockland County), NY. There the mother found a handwritten diary written by a NYC deb in the 1930s. Recently, the diary was returned to author Robin CUTLER, daughter of the diarist. http://www.lohud.com/story/news/2016/08/28/nancy-drew-and-long-lost-rockland-diary/88510788/ Barb MizScarlettNY@aol.com

should be unless the listadmin goofed on html editing to make subscribe and unsubscribe working right. The listadmins have to fix the admin page and html pages to get the lists going. Major upgrade made to mailman subscription program. And I see a lot of admins are not doing it. Yet I took care of my lists and almost done.
