    1. Re: [NYWESTCH] Need Help!
    2. Hello! Forgive me for deviating from Westchester County, but I am desperate and am hoping someone can come to my rescue! I am looking for the grave, or any death record, of a Francis Gonya (or Gonyea), who I am sure died in Albany, N.Y. He was born somewhere in Quebec in 1802. He and his wife Josette emigrated to the United States about 1832 and settled in Essex and Clinton Counties. They then moved to Troy, N.Y. and finally settled in Albany, N.Y. Francis and his sons were shoemakers and are listed in the Albany City Directories starting in 1862. The last record of Francis is in 1875, so I would assume he died shortly after. I cannot find any record of a grave, or burial. Where do I go from here? Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Jean
