Deborah died 1850, AuSable Forks, NY. Then Elijah m: Nancy Spaulding and Nancy had 4 daughters, (from a previous marriage) one of them named Sophronia, b: 1846. Elijah and Nancy then had a child, Hattie M. White. Elijah and Deborah had 2 children born in Essex, Chittenden, Vermont, so I feel there is a connection. I just want you to know that I really appreciate you putting these excerpts on the list. I have so thoroughly enjoyed them. Mary

I may be able to do a few more, but as this is very time consuming to hand copy and I have previous obligations that I need to get back to I won't be able to do much more.. I wish I could do the whole two rolls for you. Maybe later on I can order them again on inter library loan and do more.

Hi Joyce, You sure have been busy. Thanks so much for all of the time and energy you put into our genealogy. I have been looking for Alfred Reed m Jerusha Grant. I know much about them from records in the town of Berlin, Washington Co., VT. Although the vitals were recorded there, many of the events took place in a different location. I lost track of Alfred after a land sale. I believe Jerusha died in a different location. The articles I have been recieving I have sifted through to find clues to parts of their life. The 1830,s are a bit early but certainly with in the span of their lives together. Thanks for all of your hard work and know it is appreciated. Yours in genealogy, Al

Hi all, Could find no trace in the VT vital records of birth of Emma (Emily) BRUEN/ BRUIN/ BREWEN/ etc. Marriage certificate has her born 15 April 1965, to father John and mother Bridget FARRELL, living in Underhill.

I am looking for any info on parents, siblings, etc. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Hi: I goofed and used the same date twice. The last date for the posting on Thursday 3:15 p.m, of Burlington Sentinel 1830 newspaper excerpts should be Oct.1, 1830 and not 24 Sept 1830. I used the same date twice. Sorry about that. Also I have been asked to post to the Vermont L list, so if you subscribe to both just delete on one of the two lists. Sorry for any inconvenience. Joyce
