You may want to check CT for a will.  Often they were recorded in the place where they came from.   If need be, I can recommend a researcher at the CT State Library.   Susan new email: srh705@yahoo.com --- On Thu, 7/23/09, gc-gateway@rootsweb.com <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> wrote: From: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com <gc-gateway@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [VTRUT] DOUGLASS, Asa d 1811 To: VTRUTLAN-L@rootsweb.com Date: Thursday, July 23, 2009, 4:49 PM This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

I am on the hunt for the original to see if it mentions who John's heirs were.  This would be the perfect piece of documentation for DAR. Undisputable!! I have called and s-mailed Columbia Co. NY's county seat--Hudson--NO WILL :( I have called Albany Co. Surregattes office.  They want $90.00 to look and woman I talked to was very nice and said she didn't think it was very hopeful as he died in Columbia Co. I have been in contact with Samboco.com David Samulson- has lots of wills none that he can find for Asa Douglas. I have s-mailed Columbia County HS.  They have given me what they have on Douglas's from Canaan.  NO WILL.:( The hunt goes on. Input on situation is welcome.
