Looking for any and all info on Jeremiah Poyfair. He lived in Lockport Niagra county NY. He was married to Ellen Flynn and together they had several children. He must have died between 1850 and 1860 as he appears on 1850 census but not on 1860. Wife Ellen does appear on 1860 in the home of August Baldwin. Anyone with any info please contact me at paggiarino@nac.net Thanks Kim

I don't know how often you check this site, but I hope you will get this message. I am working with another person in Michigan to get more of this information and update from the late 1800's. Jeremiah was my great,great grandfather. I have a lot of info, but am researching a lot more. Pamela in Michigan is doing a lot of work from Michigan desecdants, I am doing research mostly for Western NY. It seems you heard from Jim Nagel a few year ago. He is my first cousin. I don't know what info he gave you, but I am awaiting much info in the mail or in person from a distant cousin in Eden NY. Her aunt was our family historian and when she passed on Ruthann got all the paper work along with a wedding dress of her grandmothers (my great aunt) She will probably mail me copies of what she has in case she can't get here. She has obits, wedding announcements, newspaprer clippings and name of books containing much info. If you get this message please contact me as I can give you some info now and more when I get the info from Ruthann.

I just posted for info on Jeremiah Poyfair myself. I would be more than happy to share any info I have with you in return for any info you have. My grandfather was Louis Jeremiah Poyfair. His father was Edward Poyfair whose father was Jeremiah H. Poyfair. Your grandfather and my grandfather would have been cousins. You and I share the same great, great grandfather. As I just posted, he was born on the high seas landing in St. Eustace Quebec Canada.
Jeremiah H. is buried in Lockport, NY as is our great great grandmother Ellen. The cemetery records were burned as well as our church records, however I just joined our local geneological Society and they have records of all the grave markers that are readable in Lockport. I will check there tomorrow to see if they have the records of which cemetery they are in. Hoping to hear from you soon.

Hopefully, you will get this message, don't know if you're still interested, but found your post on a message board. I have a site made for me by one of our distant cousins in Quebec CA. It has info back to the 1700's .It includes info on Jeremiah and his wife Ellen Flynn. There is more info back further, but I can't find the site right now. It is back to when the Poyfairs (Payfer) came to the Mohawk River valley from Germany. I always thought we were French, but have found out differently. The site is
