Thanks for your response. My interest in the Burdicks is as Burns descendants. I have a photograph taken c. 1902 of the centennial of the Burns family in America and I just bet there are Burdicks in the picture since David Burns (born circa 1770) and his brother Jonathan (born 1773) were alive until the mid 1800s. I thought it would be interesting to Burdicks...especially the decendants of Thomas and David's daughter, whose first name is unknown..that she was a Burns. We are tentatively planning a bicentennial of the Burns family in America for the year 2000... but since I have to do all that work, it is very tentative

Jan, where did you get a copy of A New History of New Milford. I'd love to get a copy because I'm researching Benjamins, Haydens, Summers....most in New Milford. Pam

Opps - should have kept reading. I have: Steven Burdick b. 1748 Westerly RI & Mary Church had a son Thomas, who had a Thomas. They also were parents of Billings Burdick, who was father of the afore-mentioned Simeon, who went to Clifford. Do you have access to the Robert Burdick genealogy? Lots of good info on the Burdicks of Clifford. Also there are articles on Steven and on the Billings family in my library. Susan

Hi, Mary Can you narrow down the time? I've got access to lots of info on Burdicks. Thomas, of Simeon, was b. in Clifford 1820. He married a Baker whose mom was a Barnes. Susan in San Jose, Ca

You may already have a reply, but I have A HISTORY OF NEW MILFORD AND ON PAGE 4-R which gives names of people buried in New Milford Cemetery there are listed CROFUT Harriet 1821, Almyra 1852 age 38, Harriett 1834, Josiah 1836 age 69, Ezra Unknown. Hope this is of some help. Jan in Florida

Hi All, Well it has been very hectic around my house lately and I don't have time to run this list the way it should be run. We have added 2 babies under 5 months old in the last 4 months and I have a wedding to plan for my daughter. I would like to know if anyone would like to take over the List as its owner. I don't have time even to get on the internet with the children here and my daughters wedding is in Oct. so I have a lot to do between now and then. Please email me personally and not to the list if you would like to take this over.

I am seeking on Charles and Sarah Myers, I am not surch, but they may have live in Clifford. Many years ago I was told that Charles and Sarah were buried in the Clifford cemetary.Charles was born in1852, I have iformation on Sarah, I would be greatful for any and all information and would like to find out if there are any living descendants of the family. Thanks Ted

Mary Jean...thanks so much...I did not find Thomas but Jonathan and Anna Burns, our patriarch and matriarch of Pa ancestors were born there... BUT for those of you who may be Burdick descendants...I have info that the wife of Thomas' (who would have been born around 1790) was a Burns. There was a tragic story told by her in 1869 about when she was a young daughter of pioneer David Burns (who left no male descendants) about her younger brother born about 1795 who was lost in the forest and presumed eaten by wolves. She was identified as Mrs. Thomas Burdick. Take care Mary

Hi, I don't have the Burdick genealogy so I can't check it, but a quick look at FamilySearch.com brought up: Thomas Burdick, b. 27 March 1820 in Clifford, Susquehanna, PA., s/o Simeon Burdick & Catherine Broton. According to this ancestral file, his wife was Harriet Baker (not Burns). If this record is correct, then Thomas is a grandson of Billings Burdick. I would check the Burdick genealogy to make sure.

Hi all, Was wondering if someone might be able to help me. A very kind gentleman has offered to take pictures of the graves of my gr gr gr grandparents graves. They were Josiah Crofut d. 1836 and his wife Rebecca (Gregory) Crofut d. 1855. Someone on the list said a while back that they were buried at New Milford Cemetery. I think that was found in a History of Susq. Co. book. Does anyone know if they are there and if there is a New Milford Cemetery? Would like to make this as easy as possible for this kind person. Thanks a lot. Pat Owens

The Thomas Burdick I am talking about would have probably been born around 1795.

Do any of you know who Thomas Burdick of Clifford was? His wife was a Burns. I would love to know if they have any descendants. Mary

Mike Burnett.. What kind of info do you have on the Decker's? Did you say your Harris line was buried at Nicholson? Will be going north in August. Janet

Hi Susan! So good to hear from you! I would love to compare notes with you, especially since I recently read a 1983 article by David Kendall Miller in "Rhode Island Roots" with information on the ancestry of Stephen Burdick that differs from what Nellie Johnson gives in "Robert Burdick of Rhode Island". Are you familiar with this article? Miller believes that there were 2 Stephen Burdicks, one who was the son of Simeon & Isabel (Saunders) Burdick and born in 1748, the other, the son of Thomas & Dorothy (Maxson) Burdick and born abt. 1736. Miller found evidence of an older Stephen Burdick who had signed a petition with Thomas Burdick and several of Thomas Burdick's sons (Thomas, Jr., Zebedia, Elias and others). By coincidence, Stephen & Mary Burdick's also named three of their children Thomas, Elias and Zebediah. The argument the article sets forth is pretty convincing to me. I rented the microfilm of the Burdick book from LDS and will have to order it again to update my information on the Thomas & Dorothy (Maxson) Burdick line. Anyway, I am very interested in learning more about the Burdicks of Clifford, since that seems to be where at least part of Stephen & Mary (Church) Burdick's family ended up (Mary, Billings, Thomas and Elias). Did any more of Stephen & Mary Burdick's family go to Clifford? I just heard from a researcher of their daughter, Mary "Polly" who married Barber Cardner, and she settled in Truxton, Cortland County, New York. Their oldest son, Joel Burdick, from who I descend, stayed in Hopkinton and is buried at the Rockville Cemetery there, but his son, Rowland Burdick (my ggg-grandfather), went to Connecticut, and this is where the line stayed through to my grandmother. It's really late up here, so I'll send this off. Again, I'm really interested in learning more about the Burdicks of Clifford.

Not being a Susquehanna County person, I've been reluctant to get into the Church St. question, but I'd like to point out that virtually every town in Northeastern PA large enough to have two parallel streets probably has a Church Street. However, as noted, most of them don't go as high as "500" and I'm pretty sure that South Gibson doesn't qualify on either count. Possibilities are Montrose and Susquehanna. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, July 10, 1999 6:38 PM Subject: Re: address > Church Street in Hallstead is a very short Street...don't think there would > bve a 502.
