I am researching ELIZABETH BARNETT for the town of Gananoque. She was
instrumental in stopping a raid on the town in 1836. She was born in
Depauville, NY in 1815 d/o John Barnett & Abigail Rhodes.
She was a school teacher and came to Gananoque in 1830. Her people lived
in LaFargeville around 1835. I also have a record that states she was
born in Stone Mills NY. ELIZABETH BARNETT DAY is planned for February
21, 1998, so a prompt reply would be nice. I would like an exact birthdate if I could possibly
get it.
Thanks for your help, Eileen

Looking for any and all information available on the following family. Edgar
S. CASLER was born in Watertown, New York, January 15, 1824, and is a son of
Henry and Marigrit (Mary DINGMAN) CASLER natives of New York. They were the
parents of seven children, and four of this family are: Edgar S. is the oldest
member of the family; Daniel D. settled in Seymour, Missouri; Angeline the
widow of Jacob PROPER, settled in Pierpoint, Michigan; and Sarah J. the wife
of J. RAMSEY, of Lowville, New York. The father, Henry CASLER, was a
blacksmith by trade, and died in the town of Turin, Lewis County, New York
about 1842 at the age of 82. He was a soldier in the war of 1812. His father,
Jacob/John/Jared CASLER, was a soldier in the Revolution. He was a native of
New York and of German descent. He was the father of five children, and lived
to be 90 years old. Edgar S. CASLER spent his childhood and youth in
Jefferson county, New York, where he attended the district school. He worked
on the farm until he was 19 years old and was then apprenticed to the trade of
wagonmaker, which was his occupation for thirty years. He went west in the
fall of 1854 and made a location seven miles west of the young city of
Janesville, Rock County, Wisconsin.

I've been viewing the Child's Gazeteer for Lorraine. You have a family
sketch of Jonathan Remington and his family. I'm desperately looking for a birth date for
Jonathan. The sketch says he came from Rhode Island and settled in Lorraine in 1803. I have
information on a Jonathan Remington born in Rhode Island with an
extensive lineage going back to the 1500s. I need some kind of
documentation on the Jefferson county Jonathan that would show he is the
same Jonathan I've found in Rhode Island.
Can you help me at all. Some kind of census data with year of birth
would really help. I would appreciate anything you can provide.

I am trying to locate any information on my Great Grandfather, William
Burton FULLER. He was supposed to be born either at Watertown or Sackets
Harbor, New York. I have for his birthdate March 14, 1858, but I am not
sure if this is right. He married Martha BEST, in the State of Michigan,
March 11, 1882. I have no idea who could have been his parents, brothers or
sisters. I have heard rumors that family members may have moved to Wisconsin.
Heard of a Fayette FULLER, also possibly a Freeman or Freedom FULLER.
I have found a Freeman FULLER living in Jefferson Co., N.Y.,
in 1830-1855. Can't seem to locate him in 1860. I am trying to learn if this
could possibly be William's father. William also used the first names of
Bert, Burton, Albert and Bertrand FULLER.
I'd appreciate any help on finding information on my Great Grandfather
William B. FULLER. Marriage and Death records list no parents.

Would you have any suggestions on where I can find information about JONATHAN
PATTERSON? He was in the 1820 census at Ellisburgh, Jefferson Co. NY. He
served in the Rev. War and was collecting a pension. His birth date is
approx. 1740. I have written to the Nat'l Archives, hoping they would have a
record on when his pension was stopped, but all they sent me was records
regarding the transfer of his pension from the state of VT to NY. I have
written to the New York State Library and the public library, but have had
response as yet. If you would have any suggestions on where else I can look
for information, I would appreciate it deeply, as I'm running out of ideas.
On the internet, it states that the New York State branch of the DAR has
records of all Rev. War vets that died and are buried in NY.
Where could I write to, to find if they have any record?
Thank you for your time.

I am trying to help my sister locate her husband's family. His mother is
living in a nursing home and has had Ahlshiemers for many years. He is
trying to verify a story that she was a twin. Her name was Marjorie Rice and
he thinks her twin was Michael. When they were 15 in 1935 or 36 the twins and
two friends were walking on the railroad tracks in Watertown and either
playing chicken with the trains or just goofing around and Michael was killed.
My brother in law sent for his birth certificate a few years ago to go on a
cruise and he had a different last name and a different birth date. He had to
go to court to officially change his name to the name he grew up with. What a
surprise, but she can't tell them anything and her family would never talk
about it. Can you find anything about this accident in the Watertown papers
and get me names of Michael's and Marjorie's parents so I can do some research
for them?
Thanks.
I appreciate any help you can give me.

left a home in Pamelia or Phiadelphia to one of his sons ALDEN BUCKLIN
SR. (1780-1873) m. #1 MERCY KETCHUM and #2 PHILINDA BARNS (widow of his

was Supervisor and Assessor in Phiadelphia in 1822. Another son, DAVID
WALDO BUCKLIN (about 1784 - 1848) m. ELEANOR MITCHEL lived on the "Big
Bend, Black River" and was admitted to the bar at Watertown 1810, and

Pamelia left to Alden. He left his wife (MERCY KETCHUM) and went to

was a veteran of the War of 1812, serving about 3 months in 1814 at
Plattsburgh, NY. I am seeking the ancestry of both John and Catherine. Both
surnames have many variations. SHELEY may be seen as SHEELY, SHEELEY,
SHIELE, and many other forms. TEACHOUT may be seen as anything from
TIETSOORT to TITSWORTH. John and Catherine's children were:

Is this the same JOHN SNOW listed in the book "Indian Affairs, Laws and
Treaties," complied by Chas J. Kappler on page 513, 514 ??? (that is listed
in Early Jefferson County???) He is listed as one of the ten chiefs
witnessing a treaty. The reason I ask is that there are also listed on page
514 other Indians of the Orchard Party with a Abraham Denny, Lewis Denny,
Martin Denny and Baptiste Denny. All this info was regarding a treaty done in
the years 1838 and 1839. I am looking for information on my Denny Line,
so I went to the Local Main Branch here in Tacoma Washington and got my
hands on Kappler's book, and now I am really wondering where else to look.
I did find a Joseph Denney (aka-different spellings) listed on a 1830
Census of Watertown with a male child falling into the catagory of 10 to 15
years that My John Deney/Denny could fit nicely but I have no proof. How can
I verify this ?? Where are children's names listed - JUST WILLS?? I can't
even find John's Birthplace??!!
I've been checking death notices more than anything, can't seem to find birth
nor marriages of this stupid Denny family. But if it does lead into Indian
roots - where do I go then??

I have been searching many years for a family called Duel who was living
in Jefferson county around 1830. The head of the family was William
Duel his wife's name was Myra Sirsen also may have been called Almyra.
A son, George R Duel was born in May of 1830 in Sterlingville NY
according to his death certificate and Civil War records. Some records
may indicate a Philadelphia NY where he might have lived. At any rate I
am unable to find a Sterlingville NY that was in Jefferson county. I
think the town was located where the current Fort Drum is located.
Everywhere I look is a dead end. I was thinking of flying out to
Watertown and doing research but I want to make sure I have exhausted
any search avenues I have left remotely. Where do I start? Does
Sterlingville or Philadelphia records exist? Is there someone who would
be willing to do some research for a fee? I there someone I can contact
to get me started on finding this family? Thanks for your attention.
If you are not in a position to assist me regarding this note, is it
possible to pass this to someone who can. Thank you!

WILLIAM MARSH settled in Ellisburgh on a farm later owned by his son,
WILLIAM. He married HANNAH GARDNER, who was the daughter of
EZEKIEL M. and RUTH (TANNER) GARDNER.
Their children were:
GARDNER J. MARSH who married EMMELINE, daughter of BENJAMIN and
LUCRETIA (ROWE) ALLEN;
POLLY MARSH who married ED. JAMES;
WILLIAM L. MARSH who married ELIZA JANE ALLEN, daughter of JAMES
and SALLY (SHELDON) ALLEN;
JENETTE MARSH who married DAVID WHEELER;
ROSETTE MARSH who married NORMAN B. FISH, son of
JONATHAN and ANNA (CARTER) FISH;
and RUTH J. MARSH who married WILLIAM BEEBE.
I am looking for information on the elder generation's parents and
where they came from.
Thank you very much for all leads.
