Posted on: VanArsdale Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/VanArsdale/10094 Surname: VanArsdale, Amerman, Post ------------------------- Cindy, Was recently wandering through all my family branches on Rootsweb and found your note from Sep 2000, on Joseph VanArsdale of Cayuga, CO. NY. I have him in my database. While I can't answer your question wrt his parents. I'll pass on what I have. Joseph was one of what is believed to be three brothers in that area. The others were James and Abraham. As you do, I have that he married Dinah Post, my information was both were born in N.J. I have one child known, Peter VanArsdale, b. Nov. 26, 1826,Niles, NY; d. May 8, 1905; m. Agnes Amerman b. oct 14, 1828, Niles, NY; d. July 8, 1896. They had two children Clemma VanArsdale, and Peter G. VanArsdale. I have this because my wife is a descendent of one of Agnes Amerman's aunts. There is more to this story, e-mail if you're interested. I don't want to post due to questionable supporting evidence. Would be very interested if you've found anything on Joseph's ancestors. Sincerely, Eldon Mickelson mick.mickelson@att.net
