Cindy, At www.google.com, if you search for "Springvail Cemetery" or "East Elba Cemetery", you will come up with several sites including those from Genesee County, NY. Doing the same kind of search for "Samantha Sackett", surely brought up the confusion that exists with your ancestor. I see where Mary Lou Sackett of this list corresponded with a G. Lehmann on the subject in 2000. Perhaps Mary Lou or Thurman have discovered more on Samantha since then...? Good luck to you in your search! I'm afraid this doesn't help much but I wanted to forward your message to the list since it appeared to only include me. Perhaps others can help you more!

I am still looking for Samantha Sackett born circa 1795/6 who gave birth to Andrew Lovejoy Crofoot in Aurelius NY 23 Dec 1816. I figured that she may have been named for a Samuel in the family and believe in my research that she may have had a sister named Elizabeth. But I still have not found any Samantha in the records. Does anyone know where Springvail Cemetery is located? Part of my research (LDS)indicates that Samantha's daughter Sophia was baptised in Springville NY in 1818. There are no Springville records since there was a big fire in the late 1800's. Sorry if I missed this in another email. It's tax season, so I am flat out.

Cindy- In regard to your reply to Nancy, you stated that Sophia, daughter of Samantha Sackett was baptized in 1818 according to your research (LDS). Sophia was born 11 Feb 1818 and therefore would not have been baptized in 1818. In my records for her baptism I have the date of 16 Mar 1845 but I do not have a place. I too am still looking for more information on Samantha Sackett and I am wondering if there is a way to get a copy of a marriage license for Samantha and Gideon. This would help us to find out who her parents were and we could possibly get more info from that but I don't know where to get the marriage license. Any suggestions?

The Springvail cemetery as mentioned above is in the township of Elba, Genesee Co. NY. There are several SACKET(T) buried here.. including Elizabeth SACKET(T) Howe. e do not know who her parents were. There was a Samuel and Isaac in Genesee Co in the late 1790's and 1800's. I know nothing about them and have had a difficult time finding out who they were.
