James Kelley born 1773, VT is buried in Dale Cem. He is buried in 1855 in Dale's Pioneer Cem.. The Tomb stone was moved from the old Pioneer cem. which was in terrible disrepair, circa 1900. His grandson who was interested in family history feared the stone would be broken and buried in the old cem. He put James' tombstone near his son's, Orlando Kelley, Tomb stone in the new Dale Cem. I need to know where this James Kelley lived before coming to Dale to die. He is not in the 1850 Census of Wyoming County. The last definite residence was Hannibal, Oswego County in the 1820 Census. His son said that the family farm was in NY state in 1830, but where? Thanks so much, Frances Porter [email protected]

Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State July 6-1893 Practical Joke in Attica. A fire started on Exchange street last evening that might have resulted seriously but for the fact that it was discovered before it had gained much headway and was promptly extinguished by the fire department. About 7 p.m. several young men saw Painter Joseph WOOD lying asleep in his paint shop, a two-story frame building on Exchange street, and some of them conceived the idea that it would be great sport to fire off a large firecracker in the building and give him a sudden awakening. The plan was carried out and WOOD was rudely aroused from his slumbers. He got up and without removing the burning portions of the exploded cracker, it is said, went out and locked the door behind him. Shortly before 10 o'clock passers-by discovered that the building was on fire and sounded an alarm. By the time the firemen arrived Paul GLOR's meat market building, adjoining the paint shop, was also on fire, but the flames in both structures were soon extinguished. Considerable damage was done to the interior of WOOD's building and the fire burned through the roof, but GLOR's building was not much damaged. Buildings stand close together at that point and if the fire had gained much headway a serious conflagration would undoubtedly have been the result. There appears to be every reason for believing that the fire started from the exploded cracker. Frederick W. Long's Death. Castile.-Frederick W. LONG, son of the Rev. J.C. LONG, died on Tuesday of inflammation of the brain, aged 21 years. He was born in Elba, Genesee county. He finished the course of Regents' study here in the public school, graduating with Regents' diploma in 1890. After two years' study at Mt. Hermon, Mass., he was graduated from the classical course and by his Regents paper and Mt. Hermon diploma entered Hamilton college in 1892. Last February he went to Chicago, but contracted a severe cold on the journey and was ill a short time. On his arrival home two months ago he was improving. Two weeks ago he was taken with a rush of blood to the head. Dr. L.C. BOUGHTON had charge of the case an called Dr. George M. PALMER of Warsaw in consultation. They decided that the patient had brain trouble and there were no hopes of recovery. After being informed of his condition the young man made all the arrangements for the burial services. He leaves a father, mother and two sisters. The deceased was a member of the Castile Tent, K.O.T.M.,and carried $3,000 insurance. That order will attend the funeral in a body. The funeral will be held from the Baptist church today. The Rev. H.C. DIBBLE of Perry and the Rev. H.W. CONGDON of Wyoming will have charge of the services and will be assisted by the pastor of this place. The remains will be taken to Elba for interment tomorrow. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Daily News Batavia, Genesee County, New York State July 3-1893 Veterans at Gettysburg Over 10,000 people were at Gettysburg yesterday to witness the dedication of the New York State monument to the memory of the soldiers of the Empire State who fell in the memorable conflict of 1863. Seven thousand men in the throng were veterans of this State who participated in the Battle of Gettysburg and whose transportation to the dedication was paid from funds appropriated for that purpose by the Legislature. The monument stands in the New York section of the National cemetery near the statue of General REYNOLDS. Casper BUBERI, the military sculptor, was the artist. The base of the memorial bears a tablet showing the names of all New York officers in the field. The structure, which cost $52,000, is of polished granite and bronze. The scenes represented in the bronze relief are the wounding of General SICKLES, wounding of General HANCOCK, the death of General REYNOLDS, and General SLOCUM surrounded by his subordinate commanders. Among the figures, besides SICKLES and SLOCUM are the New York soldiers, Generals CARR, WEED, GRAHAM, WARD, TREMOINE, GREENE, RUSSELL, BARNUM, BARTLETT, DOUBLEDAY, ROBINSON, BARLOW, KIRKPATRICK, and WARREN. "Victory," as the statue is styled, is represented by a female figure of pensive mien, holding floral wreaths with which to decorate the graves of the dead. She leans on a staff surmounted by the liberty cap which is present in the arms of the State of New York. She wears an empire belt on which is a solitary star, emblematic of her being one of the stars of the Union, and on her girdle in is the motto, "Excelsior." Below the columns are trophies consisting of flags, cannon, shields, the coat-of-arms of the State and the corps badges of the New York regiments which were engaged in the great battle. The ceremonies of the dedication were impressive. The thrilling addresses of the speech makers came from the heart and awakened memories of the long ago. General Daniel E. SICKLES, President of the Board of Gettysburg Monument Commissioners of New York State, made the introductory speech. It was partly historical and entirely patriotic. Bishop POTTER delivered the dedicatory address, speaking eloquently, and Governor PATTISON of Pennsylvania then briefly welcomed the distinguished guests. Governor FLOWER spoke next. He said the impressive scene was the homage which a great State renders to its martyr sons. The battle in which these fought, the Governor said, was one o the great battles of history; the cause, the highest of which human blood was ever shed; the scenes of bravery and hardship are embedded in the memory of every American; and the victory here won determined the integrity of the Union and insured the establishment of human freedom in this land. For participation in such a conflict an in aiding the accomplishment of such ends, no homage of a grateful State is too profuse--no mark of appreciation is too generous--no expression of love is undeserved. "In the great battle fought on this hallowed ground," Governor Flower added, "New York's part was prominent and the bravery of her men conspicuous. No small share of the Union victory is hers. Most of the heroes of the struggle were her sons. A third of the soldiers on the Federal side were in New York regiments. In cavalry, artillery and infantry organizations, equivalent to seventy-three regiments, New York had not much less than 30,000 enlisted men and officers on the field. ** This is pre-eminently the battle field of the nation. Men of nearly every State participated in the its action. Nearly every State contributed to the exhibitions of bravery, and no less brave were those who followed the Confederate flag, and fought behind their superb leader, General LEE. No charge in martial history was ever more daring or courageous than that of PICKETT's men. It has an immortal place among military annals." Each of New York veterans is to be presented a medal commemorative of the great battle. This End of the State About 130 Wyoming county veterans went to Gettysburg to see the monument H.H. ELDRED, once manager of the Attica mills, on Saturday gave up the management of the Star Theater in Buffalo, owing to a request from the owners for his retirement. submitted by L.

Hi all, I'm looking for the cemetery where my g-g-aunt, Elizabeth (Libbie) FAGAN McCLURG, is buried. Notes found in Le Roy House from a g-aunt list her as being buried "in Gilfillans", but I have never heard of a cemetery by that name!! She died c1876; her family lived in Covington, in Wyoming County, and her husband, William McCLURG, lived in Pavilion, in Genesee County at the time of his death, some 60 years later. He is said to be buried in Covington, but he did remarry, so he wasn't necessarily buried with Elizabeth. Has ANYONE ever heard of a cemetery by ANY name sounding ANYTHING like Gilfillans, in the vicinity of the Genesee, Wyoming, Livingston County "corner"?? THANKS!!! Joan
If any of you are searching your Indian roots in NY the 1915 State Census has a lot of information. Hopefully they can be found on microfilm for that year. They are after all the towns for what ever county the reservation may be in. In my case the census for the Tonawanda Reservation is in the Genesee County Census book at the end (which is in our clerks office). They also have 1875 and 1925. Sometimes it is enumerated as the reservation as a whole. Sometimes it is broken down into what area of the reservation being Alabama (Genesee), Newstead (Erie) and Royalton (Niagara). I'm guessing Tonawanda is in the Genesee County Census since, geographically, the Alabama portion of the reservation has the most acreage. It is very interesting too. Since traditionally the lineage desends from the mother not the father, the woman is the head of household. Thus the children will be the same Tribe and clan as the mother. The man (which is the head of household normally) is listed as husband or father. I was quite surprised that when the State did this census they did it the right way. Just something to be aware of if you think you have Indian roots of some kind. You may have to think opposite of the way you normally do things to get the lineage correct. Below is an example. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1915 Census (June 1) Tonawanda Reservation, Genesee County NY Census Here is the order of the columns which is pretty cool.: Residence (Post Office) Name Name of Mother of Children under 21 Relationship to head of family (which is the woman) Date of Birth Sex Tribe Clan Occupation On or off (Reservation) Acres of land cultivated Where educated Degree of Indian Blood Speaks English Christian Pagan Spokane, GRIFFIN Ulyses, n/a, father, 20-Apr-1868, M, Cayuga, Wolf, Foreman Lumber Yard, off, n/a,Common School, 2/3, yes, Christian Spokane, GRIFFIN Nellie, n/a, head, 7-Apr.-1864, F, Seneca, Beaver, Housework, on, n/a, Ontario (unreadable word), 2/3, yes, Christian Edmonton Ca, GRIFFIN Arthur, Nellie Griffin, son, 29-Sept- 1881, M, Seneca, Beaver, Salesman, off, n/a, Akron High, 3/5, Yes, Christian Spokane, GRIFFIN Earl, Nellie Griffin, son, 1-June- 1897, Seneca, Beaver, n/a, n/a, n/a, Spokane, 3/5, yes, Christian Spokane, GRIFFIN Mae, Nellie Griffin, daughter, 17-May-1899, F, Seneca, Beaver, n/a, n/a, n/a, Spokane, 3/5, yes, Christian Spokane, GRIFFIN Lettie, Nellie Griffin, daughter, 30-Nov-1904, F, Seneca, Beaver, n/a, n/a, n/a, Spokane, 3/5, yes, Christian -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Most of the residence was either Basom or Akron, so I'm guessing they were visiting? If you have Adobe Acrobat (which you can download free a lot of places) there is a booklet of 149 pages on all the federal census, questions asked, etc. Pretty interesting stuff. Doesn't seem they successfully did the reservations till 1890.

Joan, thank you for the cemetery info. I have not visited any of the ones you listed other than Cowlesville Village Cem. Can you or anyone on the list give me some idea of where the others are located ( in relation to the village of Cowlesville)? My ancestors were Universalists so I don`t thnik they`d be in the Catholic cemeteries. Attica is a possiblity, though. Again, thanks very much, Pat
Hi Pat, According to the Wyoming County GenWeb site, Bennington cemteries are: Fairview Cemetery Summit View Cemetery East Bennington German Cemetery or Our Help of Christians RC Cemtery Sacred Heart of Jesus RC Cemetery Maple Lawn Cemetery Maxon Farm Cemetery Folsomdale Cemetery Cowlesville Village Cemtery Fairview Cemetery Also from that website: Many of the early Roman Catholic families of the southern sector of the Town of Bennington were buried in the St Cecelia's RC Church Cemetery, Town of Sheldon. Also many families in the southeast section of the Town of Bennington were buried in Varysburg Village Cemetery, Town of Sheldon. Also pioneers of the Town of Bennington living in the area of Turner's Corners, Town of Sheldon were buried in Persons Cemetery or Sheldon Center Cemetery, Town of Sheldon. With the exception of Forest Hill Cemetery, all other cemeteries in the Town of Attica were published in HISTORICAL WYOMING throughout the years.
