Marla, Actually it's Iris who's looking for Carmie - or rather asked about his name. It appears that it wasn't a nickname. On the census he is called Carm or Carma or Carmie. Just an oddity, I guess. If your Rachel is the R. E. Gaylord found on the 1850 census for Clinton Twp., her father's name (or at least the head of household) is Anson. Incidentally, Iris, in 1850 Milo Gaylord, whom Davis Gaylord lived with at one time after that, is a 21-year-old head of household living with a 50-year-old woman and an 11-year-old boy. Those Gaylords are full of surprises! I also see in Mathews that Milo's wife (presumably not the 50-year-old) was a daughter of Daniel Arnold and Milo was the son of Giles Gaylord.

Hi, Ann The Gaylord's appear to have come to Wayne Co about 1810 or so from Conn. Rachael was born about 1824 there. Her fathers name was Amasa I think. She did have other brothers and sisters. Carmie could be short for Carmine which I think is a Italian name. She married D.H. Peck in the mid 1850s and was his second wife. He had 4 or 5 kids by the first wife Laurana Squires and she died. Rachael had 5 kids with D.H. and the first one is my great grandmother Laurana Peck Martin. I found them on the 1850 and 1860 Pa census. The 1880 neb census as well. Hope this helps a little. Marla

Carmie, Galen and Arlayne Wonder what the English equivalent is.......

Iris, On both 1910 and 1920, Jennie is listed as a widowed head of household - no Carmie in sight. Did you get the dates on his stone from the stone itself or a transcription? Perhaps he died in 1908...not that it makes any difference. By the way, in 1910 she had two sons at home - Galen and Arlayne, so exotic names apparently run in the family. Ann

Iris, Interesting. I found him as Carmie in 1880 and Carma (still a strange name for a boy) in 1870. In both years his father was listed as Davis A. Gaylord, but Davis/David's presumed father was named Milo. I don't suppose the name Carmie runs in the Lillie family either?

I cam across this site, and as many of our relatives came or went to Deleware County, NY I thought that I would pass this on. The link at the bottom is to the site. Delaware County, NY Genealogy and History Site Here's a cute little article I found in the paper. Can't remember which newspaper I got this from, but thought it was kind of neat. Might be of interest to someone looking for "old" names in Delaware County. - Linda Ogborn, September 6, 1998 "In them days whenever I wanted to go to Albany, I'd leave my home on The Cat Ladder (now Cross mountain). I'd go through the village of Lumberville, (now Arena) and take the train at Arkville (Now Dean's Corners). We'd ride through Beaver Dam (now Roxbury) and go through Moresville (now Grand Gorge). Then we'd continue on to Devil's Halfacre (now Stamford). We rode down the West Branch to Tinkertown (now Hobart) and then to "The Bunghole" (now Bloomville). From here we went over the mountain to Klipnockie (Oneonta) where we caught the Albany. They might have added that when he got to Alameda the name was changed to South Kortright and the Middletown sign on the post office had been changed to Margaretville." http://www.dcnyhistory.org/index.html

Holly, Your quotations are from Mathews' "History of Wayne, Pike and Monroe Counties," published in 1886.. They are part of the chapter on Paupack Township, which gives quite a bit of Purdy history, including the fact that Silas Purdy came from Kingston, NY. I believe they were part of the original Wallenpaupack Settlement in 1783. There is a Frances Purdy, wife of Darius, living in the township in 1870. Since Fanny is a nickname for Frances, she may be your "friend." When I get a chance I'll look at the obituary to see if there are any other clues. There were many Purdys in Wayne County and probably still are. They didn't all leave at the same time. In fact, I don't think they all left. Like other families, they spread out over the country in the course of many years.

Just curious... Is your Rachel Elizabeth GAYLORD maybe a sister to a guy named Carmie L. GAYLORD? And does anyone know anything about where the name Carmie would be from... I find it an odd name. Iris

Hi , Does anyone have any one have any information about when Rachael Elizabeth(Gaylord )Peck might have died? Her last know whereabouts is in Cedar Bluffs, Saunders Co. Neb in the 1885 state census. She is from Wayne Co. Pa In the Cinton Mt Pleasant area. Her husband David Horton Peck is said to have died in Wayne Co. probably the Clinton area in 1898. He is from the line of Rev Elijah Peck. They moved to Neb around 1870 or so but he appears to have moved back after 1885. This is a block wall for me. Any help would be great . Thanks Marla

Philip, My gg grandmother, Sarah Matilda BARTLESON who married William HARRIS, Jr., had an obituary written by her close friend, Fanny PURDY. That was composed in 1874, and matilda's untimely death was due to 'consumption.' So Fanny was quite possibly a neighbor. William and Sarah lived in Paupack twp., which was formed from Palmyra in 1850. William's father was a neighbor of the following Purdy's, as appear in the 1830 census: 2 households after HARRIS-- Harvey Purdy (b. 9/12/1801Paupack, Wayne PA, d. 11/9/1847 Paup.; m. Ruth CLARK 1824 (was son of Nathaniel Purdy) then later in list-- Solomon Purdy Peter Purdy Reuben Purdy In my file on William Harris, Jr. is also found the following reference to Purdy: In August 30 1856 William, Jr. gives rights to Reuben Purdy to build a dam for water.

I remember reading that the area was named Purdytown, and Purdyville, when they were there. They went to another area to live (possibly somewhere in NY??) and the area was then called Hemlock Hollow.

I would be VERY interested if you have any information on this Purdy line! regards Holly Jagger Owego, NY (William Harris supposedly came to Hemlock Hollow in about 1828, but we know not from where.
