Hello,
Does anyone have a copy of the registry? I have tried to email the original poster, but the email bounces. I am attempting to research my husband's ancestors.
Catherine Burgess born abt 1846 in NY as one of abt 14 children to John S Burgess b. abt 1792 in PA or NY, d bet 1850 and 1855 and Lucretia Morse b 1913 Yates, NY d. aft 1880, m abt 1832.
Have found Morse family researchers, but nobody knows anything about John. I can't even find his birth, marriage, or death records, nor his will. NY has the lovely fact that no records required till 1895 and all records bef and aft are by township with many counties not having a central registry.
Please help
