Hi Betty: I have a sister named Betty Webb Jones. Reguarding my GGrandfather,Samuel Webb. I have been searching for years for info. on him. On my Grandfathers Death Certificate it asked for his fathers name and birth place. His father being Samuel Webb and birthplace,Warwick,N.Y. I searched the 1850 Census for Orange Co. N.Y. thinking I might find Samuel as a lad. My birthdate for Samuel is 1833. He may have left the Warwick area to work in the Coal Mines of Pa. I know he married my GGrandmother,Olive Decker,in 1859,in Elmira,N.Y. My Grandfather was born in 1859 and his brother George in 1860. They were listed on the Luzerne Co. Census in Pa. The Samuel Webb family was also listed on the 1870 Census for Luzerne Co. Samuel worked in the Coal Mines as a Carpenter and the boys were Slate Pickers. I don't think they attended school. My mother did mention once about Blackfoot Indian being in my Fathers line. I hope we can tie are lines together.
