My Van Wart family is buried at Oakhill Cemetery, Nyack, New York. In the plot of Lewis VanWar is listed a Laura Sackett, died Aug. 11, 1882 and a Lavinia E. Sackett, died c. May 27, 1885. Anyone know who they may be and their connection to the VanWarts. There are also some Hendrickstone, Hendricks buried in this plot. ========================================================================= Hi! Your message to the Message Board just happened to be received by the SACKETT-L Mailing List!

An attempt at updating the information in Charles Weygant's 1907 book. http://freepages.books.rootsweb.com/~teking/ and then, our collection of headstone pictures is located at: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~sackettheadstones/ The Sacketts of America Genealogical Database Master Index at: http://www.tqsi.com/genweb/king/king.html SACKETT One-Name Study www.sackett.org.uk To find our databases at WorldConnect on RootsWeb, go to: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com The easiest way I have found to access the database's is to NOT use the surname search prompts; but to use the "specific database" instead. Type in the name sackett00 and 9 different entries will show. I have listed who is the progenitor of each below. sackett001, is headed by William Sackett of Jordan Down, c1520-1572. sackett002 not developed yet sackett003 not developed yet sackett004, is headed by Richard Sackete the elder, c1470-1490-1548/49. sackett005 not developed yet sackett006 not developed yet sackett007, is headed by Thomas Sackett the elder, c1530-1595/96. sackett008, is headed by John Sackett of Sackett's Hill, c1525-1592. sackett009, is headed by John Sackett of New Haven, c1628-1684. Anyone from Simon, The American Colonist may go directly to him at this URL. He is included in sackett007. http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=sackett007&id=I05 357 The above URL will probably wrap to a second line. You will need to highlight, copy and paste to make one line in your browser box. You'll find more related URL's at the list's main page* under "Family Web Pages" or go directly to: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~sidersn/sackett/sackett_homes.html Good luck to you in your quest!
