Question: Do you have a typed transcript on disk?--------------------------------------------For 7 or 8 years I've had the following database in my files, unable to locate George Sidney Leamon TRYON anywhere. He isn't in any American census record we can find. I gathered all the data myself from family members around southern Ontario. If, as you say below, he was pardoned and released in 1883, the timing is tight but possible: 1-- George Sidney Leamon TRYON-1 (18??- ) Niagara Falls, NY/Ont area?? sp-Unknown 2-- Abraham TRYON-217 ( - ) d. Dunnville, Norfolk, ON 2-- James Nelson TRYON-4 (1888-1956) d. Tonawanda, NY 2-- James Rule TRYON-5 (1893- ) of Dunnville, Norfolk, ON sp-Irene HANNA-10 ( - ) 3-- James Juel TRYON-18 ( - ) of Rockton, Wentworth, ON 3-- John TRYON-19 ( - ) of Glencairn, Simcoe, ON 3-- Lorne "Rusty" TRYON-20 ( - ) of Woodstock, Oxford, ON sp-Marjory-37 ( - ) 3-- Lois TRYON-21 ( - ) of Utopia, ON sp-GEDDES-44 ( - ) 3-- Donna TRYON-22 ( - ) of Cambridge, Waterloo, ON 3-- George TRYON-23 ( - ) of Bracebridge, Muskoka, ON sp-Joanne-45 ( - ) 3-- Richard TRYON-24 ( - ) of MacTier, Muskoka, ON sp-Violet Ethel HARWOOD-25 ( - ) 3-- James Lawrence TRYON-11 ( - ) of Brantford, Brant, ON 3-- James Stanley TRYON-16 (1918- ) of Innerkip, Oxford, ON sp-Dorothy Helen SKILLINGS-827 (1922- ) 3-- George Leamon TRYON-17 ( - ) of Virginia Beach, VA 3-- Robert TRYON-59 ( - ) of Hamilton, Wentworth, ON 3-- Elaine TRYON-83 ( - ) 2-- Ruth TRYON-6 ( - ) sp-John "Jack" DEMERLING-8 ( - ) 2-- Kathleen "Kate" TRYON-7 ( - ) sp-Jack HARDWOOD-9 ( - ) I took out the 4th, 5th and 6th generations and can get them to you if pertinent. > From this article we could determine John was born in 1815,18 miles > from Kingston ,Ont.(Earnestown ?).; that John had a brother in > Priceville,Ont.named Sager Tryon, my wife's gr. father, b.1834______ > m.Ann O'Connell,b.1836, Ireland; d.1877,we have her will. Well, we can't win them all. Maybe he divorced Charity. If she's the same Charity in the Twp in 1861, she says she's single. > Sager Tryon ownned and operated the Priceville Hotel ca.1872/73. > He d.1874 in Priceville. Sager and Ann Had 9 children,the youngest,a > Sager was my wife's father,b.1872. Question: Can you give me a list of the 9 children? Do you have a record of the descendants? > George was m._______Wallace and had a child living in Enniskillen, > Normanby Twp., Grey Co., Ont.at the time of his conviction. The 1881 > census places George in the Provincial Penitentiary,Kingston,Ont. > > Last year we were in Kingston,Ontario. So was I, in October and Aug this year. I was stationed there in the Army in the '60s (my drinking years [:>[} ) > We found documentary proof that Geo.Tryon had been pardoned and released in > 1883,where abouts not known. Were you at Queen's U Stouffer Library? The following is the amended record of an application for UEL status by Mrs. Wava Tryon Schwartz (below) who is your neighbour in Canton at 1641 Manor Ave, NW, Zip 44708, phone:216-477-1130. The following is somewhat different to the data she submitted to Wes Tryon in 1974 and I don't know which is correct. I was just about to write her but, may not have to now, eh? 1-- William TRYON-160 (1776-1834) of Camden East, Lennox & Addington, ON sp-Polly BROWN-161 (1774- ) of Ernestown, Lennox & Addington, ON 2-- John TRYON-162 (1795- ) 2-- William TRYON-163 (1810- ) of Brighton, Northumberland, ON sp-Lucy HILL [(PACKARD)]-164 (1817- ) VT 3-- Chester TRYON-165 (1833- ) 3-- Luther TRYON-166 (1835- ) 3-- William TRYON-167 (1837- ) 3-- John TRYON-168 (1840- ) 3-- Calvin TRYON-169 (1844-1920) NY sp(1)--unknown 4-- Charles TRYON-181 ( - ) sp-Harriet WALTERHOUSE-182 (1854- ) Peel, ON 4-- Lucy E TRYON-176 (1871- ) Genesee, MI 4-- William A TRYON-177 (1873- ) Genesee, MI 4-- Alfred TRYON-178 (1875-1926) Davison, Genesee, MI sp-Jennie LaVanchie SUMMERS-184 (1885-1970) Lapeer, MI 5-- Calvin Jerome TRYON-185 (1904- ) Lake, Clare, MI sp-Annabelle SOWLE-186 (1907- ) Lake, Clare, MI 6-- Wava Gertrude TRYON-187 (1926- ) Lake, Clare, MI sp-LeRoy William SCHWARTZ-190 (1921- ) Canton, Stark, OH 7-- Nancy Anne SCHWARTZ-191 ( - ) sp-BURKHART-195 ( - ) 7-- Linda Marie SCHWARTZ-192 ( - ) sp-YOST-196 ( - ) 7-- Vivian Lee SCHWARTZ-193 ( - ) sp-TISEVICH-197 ( - ) 7-- Melissa Ann SCHWARTZ-194 ( - ) 6-- Virginia Jennie TRYON-188 (1928-1928) of Lake, Clare, MI 6-- Alfred William TRYON-189 (1930- ) of Lake, Clare, MI 5-- Ernest TRYON-179 ( - ) 5-- Louisa TRYON-180 ( - ) 3-- Irene Arene TRYON-170 (1846- ) of Genesee, MI sp-John LAPP-200 ( - ) 3-- Laura TRYON-171 (1849- ) 3-- Henry Harrison TRYON-172 (1852- ) 3-- Alfred TRYON-173 (1858- ) 3-- Mathilda TRYON-174 (1857- ) 3-- Spofford Spafford TRYON-175 (1861- ) This is overly long but, I don't know how else to get the information to you. I'm not familiar with your program ELM and didn't know you could access the Net without a Windows interface. I'm glad to be proved wrong. Merry Christmas {I reckon it'll be about then when you surface from reading/printing/ cutting/pasting/interpolating and correcting the above <g> (that's a grin in shorthand) <G> big grin <[:>( -- long face sideways} Don PS: I have some more info but, hadn't even finished posting much of above. I'll answer your short note later day but it's 3:30 AM and I want to get this out to you. Would you please let me know right away if you got the message and any problems you may have had.
