While checking out the update to The SACKETT-L Discussion List Home Page; I notice this entry: (Name Not Known) lilliansca2001@yahoo.com No Subbed/Unsubbed Winter 2002 "Is of the belief that Heman, Roswell and Jame H. SACKETT, from Herkimer County, New York, were criminals who took up the Sackett name in order to hide from the law and then came west to distance themselves even more. Can only find mention of them in the 1850 census for that county and state. There is a record of Roswell marrying but after the census there is nothing more except in California. It is said that Roswell went back to New York but I still haven't been able to find him." -------- I did some searching on the USGenWeb site for Herkimer Co., NY and found the following information for this couple and Heman and James Sackett: 1850 Federal Population Census for the Town of Wilmurt, HERKIMER COUNTY House 18, Family 19 SACKETT, Herman, 25, m, farmer, $200, NY ....Phoebe Ann, 25, f, NY ....Edward A., 3, m, NY ....George M., 2, m, NY STEVENS, Abram, 18, m, laborer, NY ....Rusell, 10, m, NY, attended school within the year House 19, Family 20 SACKETT, James H., 22, m, NY ....Sarah, 18, f, NY ....Josephine, 1/12, f, NY House 17, Family 18 SACKETT, Roswell, 25, m, farmer, $300, NY ....Jane, 27, f, NY ....George A., 1/12, m, NY http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyherkim/webb/vitals.html 1847 - 1849 Vital Records Town of Wilmurt [marriages] SACKETT, Roswell R., Jane KELLOGG, Nov 12, 1848 --------- http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyherkim/ohio/ohiodir.html DIRECTORY OF THE TOWN OF OHIO 1869 -1870 Sackett, Roswell Town: (Ohio) farmer 60 ----------- http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyherkim/census/1870Ohio2.html 1870 Federal Census Town of Ohio, Herkimer County, NY Transcribed by Joanne Murray 21/21 Sackett, R.R. 48 M W Lumberman NY Jane 49 F W NY Charles W. 16 M W NY Kellogg, Martha 93 F W New Hampshire ----------- http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyherkim/regiments/1880herkpension2.html PENSIONERS OF HERKIMER COUNTY, N.Y.

The 1880 census at familysearch.org lists Sacket, Bryron, age 41, born NY, parents born Ma wife Rhoda in Russia, Herkimer co. So Bryron at least would seem to connect to Massachusetts Sackett family -----Original Message----- From: Thurmon E.
