Good Morning, Out came the paper files last night. It is a good thing to review them occasionally, about every 5 years. Some notes and thoughts: William G. Roblee, 86, at the home of Luther Roblee, Jr. at the time of the 1870 Census. [NY?} Does Wm. show up in any other records at any other location? It should have been difflicult to go missing for 80 years. Was he the oldest son of Thomas and Chloe? Abigail and Timothy Johnson were co-mortgagors with Thomas and Chloe. [Landowners of NE NY, Fred Bowman, 1983] Thomas' sister? Carpenter notes a second wife for Thomas II as Abigail? Buried in Greeenridge Cem. in Saratoga Springs is Sarah Patrick, 1811 - 1875 and the headstone reads "Wife of Thomas Roblee" Was Abigail part of his life as well? Did Thomas spend his last years with his son Hamilton? Will the 1870 or 1875 NY Census possibly have recorded this? In notes which are from Marion Bernard? I have Thomas Northup marrying Annie Laurie Carleton, dau of Sanford and Ellen Roblee, dau of Thomas and Laura Roblee. Theresa, can you tell me who is Thomas' father and grandfather? Let me know and HOpe to hear from you soon. Bob

It is a good thing to review them occasionally, about every 5 years. Some notes and thoughts: William G. Roblee, 86, at the home of Luther Roblee, Jr. at the time of the 1870 Census. [NY?} Does Wm. show up in any other records at any other location? It should have been difflicult to go missing for 80 years. Was he the oldest son of Thomas and Chloe? **** This is actually, William Waldron, age 86 (Luther's father-in-law). Sorry! No new intriguing and mysterious William Roblee! Abigail and Timothy Johnson were co-mortgagors with Thomas and Chloe. [Landowners of NE NY, Fred Bowman, 1983] Thomas' sister? **** Intriguing theory. Do you have a date for that mortgage? Timothy Johnson was in Granville by 1795, when he registered his earmark. He appears in the 1790 census in Granville, but not in the 1800 or after. Carpenter notes a second wife for Thomas II as Abigail? Buried in Greeenridge Cem. in Saratoga Springs is Sarah Patrick, 1811 - 1875 and the headstone reads "Wife of Thomas Roblee" Was Abigail part of his life as well? Did Thomas spend his last years with his son Hamilton? Will the 1870 or 1875 NY Census possibly have recorded this? **** Thomas's first wife died in 1867. In 1870, Thomas was living in Granville with his youngest daughter Ellen and her husband Sanford Carleton. His will was made 17 Mar 1876 and he died 5 Mar 1877; he is buried in Granville, but we don't know for sure he died there. So, if he married Sarah Patrick it was between after 1870. I too have a note about that. I have seldom had access to those so-helpful NY state census, taken halfway in between the federal censuses. In notes which are from Marion Bernard? I have Thomas Northup marrying Annie Laurie Carleton, dau of Sanford and Ellen Roblee, dau of Thomas and Laura Roblee. Theresa, can you tell me who is Thomas' father and grandfather? **** I have that too. I found them in th1920 census for Syracuse, NY. Thomas F. Northrup, age 34 and wife Laura C. Northrup, age 35. Both born NY. In the home is Ellen Carleton, age 78. As she was living with her husband Sanford in Granville in 1910, an educated guess is that after he died, she moved out to Syracuse. I cannot find a suspect for Thomas Northrup in an earlier census. Let me know and HOpe to hear from you soon.
