Dear Grace; I'm sorry for the delay in responding to your query. I've been involved in a couple of projects which required my attention. Concerning your query about the ancestry of Lydia M. Sackett; it will help greatly if you can provide a bit more information. I've checked through my files and have been unable to find an individual that would match your James Noel Sackett m. Ursula Makepeace. The only Sackett families I have in my files who lived in Jefferson Co., NY were members of the family of the founder of Sackets Harbor, Weygant's #307-Augustus Sackett and Minerva Camp and #1221-Erwin Sackett, a son of #545-Lieut. Elijah Sackett and Dorothy Hitchcock. These families were in Jefferson Co., NY during the period including 1822 and neither one has a record of a son named James. Do you have the URL for the marriage record for James Noel Sackett and Ursula Makepeace ? Concerning the birth of Lydia M. do you have the county for Forest, IL ? I have am unable to find it on my map. There are several towns or suburbs with "Forest" in them within the state. Do you have the locations for her parents in the census for 1850? I find the William Sacket (b. 1788) and his father both located in Lowville, Lewis Co., NY in the 1820 census but do not find them in the 1830 census.
