Re: mary sanderson russell

Joyful — 2013-04-17 20:47:04Z

Just a note - if Mary Sanderson Russell is the mother of the Sanderson children on the 1940 census, her maiden name would likely NOT be Sanderson - that would be the name from her first marriage (the father of her children)

Re: mary sanderson russell

Joyful — 2013-04-17 20:14:30Z

I don't find any reference to Mary Sanderson Russell other than the 2 Sanderson children (Helen and Donald) listed as step children to Emmett Russell on the 1940 census. I find it curious that Emmett's wife is Sarah on the 1920 & 1930 census, and there is a Sarah (same age as the wife) listed as Housekeeper in the 1940 census. I did find a cemetery record listing "Mrs E Russell" buried in 1938... but without any dates in your post, it's hard to know if that is who you are looking for.

Eli (Ely) F. PERRY b. ca 1810 NY

allaboutgenealogy — 2013-03-29 16:13:10Z

Searching for information (parents, death, burial, etc.) on Eli (Ely) F. PERRY found in McDonough, Chenango County in 1840 & 1860; he is found in Cortland County in the 1850, 1870 & 1880 censuses. I suspect he died before 1900, as I cannot locate him in that census, but I have not found any death or burial information for him in either Chenango or Cortland counties.

I believe he was twice married: first to Eunice YOUNG(S) ca 1834 and had three children: Lyman (b. ca 1835 NY), William David (b. 1839 NY) and Mary Jane (b. 1842 NY); I expect they divorced ca 1845.

Then it appears that Eli (Ely) remarried Phebe (Phoebe; nee unknown) and had three children with her: Theodore (b. ca 1847 NY), Jane E. (b. ca 1848 NY), and Dewitt Clinton (b. 1849 NY). I have reason to believe that Phebe (Phoebe) may be a daughter of Martin BUSHNELL of Madison Co., NY.

If any of this sounds familiar to anyone, please contact me or leave me a note here. Thanks!

Families of Alvin U. THOMPSON and his wife, Viola M. CRANDALL

ptownpest — 2013-02-22 18:34:13Z

Hoping to locate family members of Alvin U. THOMPSON and his wife, Viola Marquerite (CRANDALL).

Alvin d. May 13, 2011 at the NYS Veterans Home in Oxford, Chenango County, NY but had been living in Onondaga Hill in Onondaga County, NY prior to his death. He was born & raised in Pharsalia, Chenango County, the s/o Frank and Emma L. (UTTER). he lived a # of yrs in Oxford and Norwich before moving to Marcellus and Onondaga Hill in Onondaga County, NY.

Viola was the youngest of 7 children born in Cortland County in 1921 to Millard F. Crandall Jr. and Bridgie (VANDEE)and lived in various areas of Cortland County before her marriage. She was a sister to Rose Mae (Crandall) LYON - my children's Great grandmother.

As far as I know Viola is still alive and perhaps still living in Onondaga County.

Alvin and Viola had the following known children: Donald Thompson of Skaneateles and daughters Judy (Thomas) TURTON of Syracuse and Jeannine (David) WYSOLOWSKI of Orlando, FL., along with 3 grandchildren and their families who all lived in Onondaga county at the time of Alvin's death.

I would very much like to communicate with any of the above named individuals or with anyone with direct knowledge of this family and it's connection to the Crandall- VanDee family line to exchange information and possibly photos.

Thank you, Kem Hart-Baker

OBIT of Burrel Story (b. 1772 d. 1858)--lived in Norwich, Chenango

Gardengreens — 2013-02-01 15:16:46Z

I am in search of an obit for my 2 greats grandfather Burrel Story, and believe it may have been published in a Chenango pulication as have not found it in Otsego, and he lived in both places. The below background may assist.

Burrel Story was a hatmaker. He was born in 1772 in Connecticut and buried in 1858 at Schuyler’s Lake, Exeter, Otsego.

He married Laura Hamilton Story, daughter of Daniel Hamilton and Kezziah Keyes Hamilton.

Residences for Burrel Story include Hartwick, Otsego, NY (1810); Norwich, Chenango, NY (1820); and Schuyler’s Lake, Exeter, Otsego, NY (1830 to 1858.)

Daniel Hamilton, Burrel’s father in law, was a revolutionary war vet and graduate of West Point. Laura and Burrel Story had 2 children Harriet Story Scott b. 1815 and Joseph Story b. 1834. Laura’s siblings were Almira, Artusa, Luman, Fanny, John, Mary “Polly,” Melinda, Kezziah.

Both Laura and Burrel Story are buried in the Old Cemetery at Schuyler’s Lake Exeter, Otsego. The Story children moved to the Chicago area where they are buried. Joseph Story was a dry goods salesman, and Harriet Story made confections. Joseph married Margaret McGown. Harriet married George Scott.

My direct ancestor was Burrel L. Story. I am a Story by birth. I can't find his parents. He was born in New London, Prescott, CT in 1792 and died in Otsego, NY.

He was said to be a hatmaker and lived in Norwich, Chenango in his 20s, actually at about the age of 28, per the census of that year.

He was married to a Laura Hamilton Story. Anyone heard of this family? Thx!!

Thx!

I am looking for any information anyone may have on a Rosa (May) Shaver. I know that she was born in Aften, NY on (?)Feb 15 1859. Her mother was Eliza (Hitt) May. I have been having trouble finding her father's name. If anyone knows anything let me know.

Daughter of J.R. (James Randolph) THOMPSON & Melissa or Malissa GERRY. Not sure if she was born in Chenango county or town. Married Dante Thomas ~1864 in Toledo, OH; died in Fairfield, Clay, NE in 1918.

Looking for ANY sort of birth record, mention in newspaper, etc, a/o marriage record for her parents (26 Dec 1841).
