Essex County Criminal Court Records circa 1910

1_eva60 — 2013-05-10 18:47:15Z

One of my ancestors, Michele LaPietra, was killed in Port Henry, NY on 2 November 1910 by Gabriel Constantino. According to articles from the Ticonderoga Sentinel, the accused escaped immediately after the crime.

I'm trying to find out if there was ever any resolution to this case. Where could I find court records for this time period?

Book: "Trimble Family Account"

ssingley1 — 2013-05-08 18:25:41Z

I'm trying to locate a book called the "Trimble Family Account" that supposedly contains information about the marriage of my gggrandparents performed by Chauncy Fenton in Crown Point. The Historical Society in Ticonderiga said that they turned it over to someone at the Penfield Museum but they don't seem to have it. If anyone knows where I can locate it, please let me know.

I know you posted a long time ago. If you still haven't found our about John Fitch Bishop, I have his parents names. The father is John Bishop and his mother is Experience Harris. He is listed as just John but all the other family names fit. He is listed in the New Hampshire Birth Records, Early to 1900 on FamilySearch.org. "John Bishop birth; 13 Jul 1772- Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire; Parents, John Bishop, Experance."

Hello! I am researching Lorenzo D. Nichols! He first comes across the Loudoun County Virginia Tax rolls in 1831 residing with a man name Herod Thomas. I do not know if this is the same Lorenzo D. Nichols mentioned in this thread, but if it is then I am definitely intrigued! And the timeline fits (1830 losing parent) I have been UNABLE to find his parents. This Lorenzo was born in 1816 and later married Amanda M. Boyce in Missouri. If any of you have information on this Lorenzo I would LOVE to find out more!!

Tupper family

famfindr_1 — 2013-04-12 17:04:19Z

Am looking for death of Reuben Tupper, father of Jesse Tupper who lived in Minerva, Essex County, NY in 1830. There was a 70-80 yr. old male in the household which is probably the above named Reuben. Is there any kind of cemetery burial information other than that listed online for the Gore Cem? Sometimes when the stone is gone, there is paper record of burials. How do I find this info? The people Jesse was living with in 1850 (Chester, Warren Co. NY), Truman & Eliza Lincoln are buried there. Jesse's death/burial is also missing.

Re: Marriage of Clara Hart to Mr. Slocum, abt 1912

peggyc2sky — 2013-03-22 20:07:17Z

What a great find with regard to Joseph Brooks. The marriage dates and the census info don't agree but that's censuses for you. If Clara was first wed at age 20, that would be in 1908.I don't find her in 1910 although previously I thought I had. She was widow Slocum in 1915.So I thought she was married between 1910 and 1915 but widowed by 1915. Norma was born abt 1912. Then Clara is listed as Slocum in 1925 which doesn't agree with newspaper article in 1923 saying she hadn't seen husband Joseph Brooks for 5 yr.meaning married by 1918 at the latest.
this is all very interesting and I do thank you for your help.
Will pursue Joseph Brooks marriage.

samuel not on the census-sometimes the census taker asked the neighbors for info. sometimes, when the husband "went away to look for work" and didnt come back, widowed was given instead of abandoned- it is possible that his date of death wasnt known at time of census.

because she was in brooklyn, i went to www.fultonhistory.com and found in the brooklyn standard union 9 july 1923 where a clara brooks seeks disolution of her marriage to a joseph brooks who she hasnt seen or heard from in 5 yrs- your?s. a little more research may solve that puzzle.
1940 life gets complicated-still in kings county, east 23rd street-been at that address a while, addie rents the house there

Adele Hansly33 listed as addies daughter
Robert Hansly13

the census could be bogus as the hansly family is one of many in what appears to be a large tenement house. articles re hensley family at fultonhistory do not shed light.)

Does anyone know if there is a listing of those buried in Ausable Forks Cemetery? I found a listing of soldiers from the Soldiers of Rebellion, buried in Essex County Cemeteries. This newspaper is from the Elizabeth Town Post 1899April-June issue... and I find this great-great grandfather listed as buried in that cemetery. I had been unable to find him or his wife Amelia Pettigrew Rooke buried in any Essex or Clinton County cemeteries'.. so I am excited to see if this is him and if Amelia is resting with him.. anyone know? Thanks in advance!

Re: Marriage of Clara Hart to Mr. Slocum, abt 1912

peggyc2sky — 2013-03-18 02:45:29Z

It would appear that Clara married a Mr. Slocum abt 1910-1912 and then a Mr. Brooks between 1925-1930. Clara is living with her mother in 1900 (where was her father Samuel, I thought dead as Addie is a widow). In 1925, Samuel reappears. As for Clara, in 1915, she is a widow with daughter Norma Slocum. In 1925, Clara Slocum is living with her parents Samuel and Addie, sister Margaret, and daughter Norma. In 1930, Clara is widowed again, this time Brooks. Must have been very short marriage. I haven't got the first name of either husband.If anyone finds either marriage, I would be grateful.
Incidently, I found Samuel's death as Nov 5, 1924 but he is on the 1925 census. ?????

Re: Port Henry, NY

unclefred2 — 2013-02-08 03:09:08Z

New France extended down to Ticonderoga (Alainville) after the battle of Carillon/Ticonderoga in 1759, the area came under the control of the British, as did the rest of New France. Part of that land is now in New York, part is now in Vermont, and the rest is now called Canada.. So yes, Lewis and Porters Mills/Port Henry was once part of something that is today called Canada.

Re: Port Henry, NY

emd10 — 2013-02-07 17:19:38Z

Was Port Henry ever a part of Canada? There seems to be a lot of confusion in the family about whether our ancestors were born in Canada or New York, but the town is listed as Port Henry.

Hi, I saw your posting about McDougall Families dated from 2001. Our McDougalls were in Hastings, Ontario. Our grgrgrandfather was Archibald and he married Jane. He died in 1856. We think he was born in 1798 and of Scottish decent, but it is possible that he came from Ireland. Just wondering how far you are on your genealogy and I am looking to find any siblings/parents of Archibald.

Hi there! I'd also like to know about Henry Bateman Rowley and Mary Polly WIlson. I believe my husband is a direct descendant. Does anyone know the details or either of their families? I haven't been able to find either one's parents with my google-fu thus far.

Re: ROWLEY & WILSON Families

William_Brooks_Hull — 2012-11-29 03:01:37Z

Hi Kristin,

I do have information on the parents of Henry Bateman Rowley & Mary "Polly" Wilson, but the evidence in somewhat circumstantial. Based upon a deed, I am certain that Henry Bateman Rowley was the son of Thomas Rowley (known as "The Green Mountain Bard") and Lois Cass of Shoreham, Vermont, but Henry is not the same person as their son, Bateman Rowley, who was born about ten years earlier and in a different state. I also am certain that Mary Wilson was the daughter of John Wilson and Sarah "Sally" Daniels of Whiting, Vermont. I presented my evidence to Ken Stevens, who wrote the series of books on the Wilsons of New England, and based upon it, he acknowledged that Mary belonged to that family.

My ancestry comes through William Rowley & Ruby Snow. Please feel free to e-mail me at bill_hull@verizon.net

By the way, I had not seen this board since 2004, and did not know of all the other messages!!

According to "Military Records" (Ancestry.com) Asa Nichols died in captivity April 23, 1813. He had sercved as a Pvt. in the Infantry under Capt. Joseph Bliss and also in the 21st Infantry under Capt. C. Proctor. He was held in captivity and died as a "Prisoner of War". Asa married Lorena Reynolds, daughter of John Reynolds of Shoreham, Vt.
Only Roswell Nichols could possibly be a child since the others were born after Asa's death in 1813.
Lorena m. (2) John Cram. Lorena and serveral of her Nichols' children removed to Southern Michigan where Lorena deceased.
Why not check 1860 census for the names you cite in Michigan? Four of their children were born in the 1790,s and one in 1800. The yougest is said born in 1810 which is likely. ANY would have been old enough to have children listed independently in the 1850 census.

Mary I Nichols 31, NY
Cynthia Nichols 11, NY
Marshall Nichols, 5mos, NY

Does anyone recognize this family? Is Roswell a child of Asa Nichols?
