I am looking for the birth and childhood in NY records of my Great Grandfather and any information on his parents and possible siblings. I have a lot of information after he arrived in Cincinnati at age 25. I have searched deep into the search result pages on Ancestry but don't know where to search (from California) in other places for Western NY records.

John Rodney Saxby
b Jan 17 1848
Buffalo NY

His Parents John Saxby and Hannah ? were both born in Vermont.
