Rockers, I stumbled across a fantastic site for anyone with family in the eastern New York State - http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~clifflamere/ The site says: "This website is designed to aid people who want to do accurate genealogical research. The geographical focus is Albany, NY and surrounding counties ( Albany, Columbia, Rensselaer, Greene, Saratoga, Schenectady, Schoharie, Montgomery, and a little of Herkimer. Also there is a little of Berkshire Co., MA, parts of which were considered to be in NY at one time.). " There are a phenomenal number of research tools here. I spent one entire day exploring, and I never did reach the end. Sharon
