Dear Bob & All, After much searching, I am afraid that I believe this Thomas Northup is of the Rennsalaer, NY Northup's- as I found Sanford Sr, of Rennsalaer,NY, he is the father of Sanford B. Carleton also of Renns. & Granville, NY, father of Laura Ann Carleton. You had written Annie Laurie, as she may have called herself (unknown) this is the only link I was able to find. My Northup's of Granville of cir.1800's are 3rd cousins to the Rennsalaer, Northup's. There really hasn't been much research done on this family- except as to our links to them through our Gardiner also spelled Gardner, Carpenter lines. I'm sorry- I and Warren of Granville, have little on this family, except for their connection to us. We are also related (2nd cousins) to the Ostego-Piitsfield,NY Northup's and Warren says that their Eunice Northup, of George T. Northup & Welthy, did marry a Carlton also spelled Carleton- and they did live in Rennsalaer. Warren's notes state Eunice Northup m) unk Carlton, of Rennsalaer, NY. Sorry, I couldn't be of more help. Theresa. I'll continue to search this Eunice & Carlton to see what, if anything I can find. --------------------------------- 8:00? 8:25? 8:40? Find a flick in no time with theYahoo!
