Thanks for all the suggestions. Majority opinion seems to be Saranac. Bit further north than I expected but on examination it does look like the best fit.

Any sign of a Hester Thomas in either NY or VT? "When we come to the edge of the light we know and are about to step off into the darkness of the unknown, of this you can be sure: either God will provide something solid to stand on or we will be taught to fly." Barbara J. Winter

Do you know what Sarah's maiden name is? If so, you could look back in the 1810 census for that name in NY and possibly get a hit on some towns starting with an 'S' in that area. -----Original Message----- >From: "David J.

Line 22, also a Thomas shows birth location as Troy, NY. I see the N.Y. as the same in both entries, 21 & 22. If all Thomas are related, they moved around, with 3 in Vermont, Derby, Bennington and Marlborough... is this Marlboro? I can also see "Syracuse"; not a long-shot as Syracuse, Troy, Bennington and Marlboro are all linked east to west by road. Dave David J.

Does anyone recognize the birth location cited on line 21 of this image? http://data2.collectionscanada.ca/1851_pdf/e093/e002306964.pdf It appears to start with an "S", end with "on" and may have "orr" or "on" in the middle. The image can be "zoomed" quite a bit but its still obscure. It might be a location in Albany Co NY or near the VT State line as that is where other family members seem to be from.

David, I read it a little differently-- it looks to me like an old fashioned F, then an old fashioned Q the Q beginning Quebec, then C E My interpretation would be F (for French) Quebec, C (for Canada) E (for East). I don't see it as a place in Vermont. If you look above to earlier entries, the person that did the census wrote Vt quite a bit differently. Also, he writes N.Y. very differently in other places.

Hi, Deacon John married secondly Sarah GILMAN, daughter of Edward GILMAN and Mary CLARK. The line then follows: Moses LEAVITT m. Dorothy DUDLEY Joseph LEAVITT m. Mary WADLEIGH Nathaniel LEAVITT m. Lydia SANBORN Jeremiah LEAVITT m. Sarah SHANNON Jeremiah LEAVITT m. Sarah STURDEVANT Jeremiah Sr is the first one of the line to move north to the Hatley area. Jeremiah Sr. died in c1817 and in the late 1830s the majority of the family began the trek to Utah. Out of interest on the BEAN family, Nathaniel LEAVITT, son of Jeremiah & Sarah (SHANNON) LEAVITT, married as his second wife, Betsey BEAN (1814-1844). She married him when she was about 15, after his wife Deborah DELANO died. Nathaniel and Betsey went on the journey with the LEAVITT family but returned to Canada after Nathaniel died in 1838 in Missouri. Where she lived or died and is buried is unknown. IIRC, her son was raised by her cousin, Betsey BEAN ABBOTT (another Betsey BEAN!).

Thanks Ernie, rumour has it that Sinney was actually born in Lyndon Vermont and I did find his parents and siblings on the 1850 census. I still have not really proven that Noble was his father. I do not know why they went to Vermont but I do not think it was for too long a time. Perhaps for work. What I really need is to see them on the 1861 census so I will try as you suggest. I did find a lookup person online for the 1861 and wrote to them but have not heard back yet. Nothing actually mentions his parents names, his baptism or his marriage but another researcher gave me Noble Donaghy and Anne Duff as his parents. As for the book, I do not think it would be worth my while to purchase it but I can view it at our reference library which is just a short bus ride away (parking requires a bank loan!). Thank you again for your help and if I can return the favour just yell. Jackie (Toronto) Ernie Turner wrote: >Hi Jackie. > >Yes, those dates are correct.

Hi, no it just says the last name. Sorry, G Don't judge folks by their relatives.

Thomas. My interest in the Hatley/Barnston families are the Bean and Allen families. Trying to locate a Edmund Bean. Born: 29 Dec. 1824/26. He says he was born in the United States in one census. Married a Adeline Daniels. daughter of Cyrus and Deborah (Ewens) Daniels, The other family is John Allen who had a son named Jude Allen (B: @1807-08) Mrried Betsey Hull. Just wondering. Gwen Don't judge folks by their relatives.
