Fort Ann, NY is a small town just west of the bottom end of Lake George. They might have a historian and/or the Clerk might be able to help with records. Look up their address on Google and phone the Town Manager for suggestions. Ask if there is an Episcopal Church in the town and then call them to see where their early records are kept. I was able to find pension/land warrant information which included info on the veteran's wife from the Pennsylvania Archives for my Pennsylvania relative. I do not know if New York has military records, but I'd try the NY Archives in Albany. Again, Google will provide the address. You may wish to write to the National Archives. Also, try your local LDS FHC. Good luck, Bob, Marlton, NJ <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ----- Original Message ----- From: "srose1" <srose1@charter.net> To: <WARof1812-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, August 20, 2005 6:19 PM Subject: [WARof1812] Lookup needed Andrew Conner >I would like to ask for a lookup for an ancestor (Andrew Conner), who >> served in the War of 1812.
