Seeking information on Sarah and Mary Dempsey, Gold Street Brooklyn 1900. In US census for 1900 aged 57 and 30 respectively. Also William and Sarah Dempsey Brooklyn 1870 and 1880 US Census
Looking for information on Eveline AKA Evelyn Goodwin. Married John Cooper LANE b 1843 New Jersey d 1886 New York City. They had a son Samuel Dusenbury LANE b 1865 NYC d 1848 New Jersey. Eveline and John Cooper Lane were divorced in 1872 or 73. That is the last record I have of Eveline. I think she may have married TROAST OR FROST. I would like any information on my 2nd greatgrandmother

Looking for parents of Salome Parsons or Persons. She married Hezekiah Lathrop in Pompey Twp, Onondaga Co in October of 1803. The only two people documented as having this first name plus a matching surname were from Maine and Massachusetts and the fate of both is known. Looking for clues or possible new connections. Thanks / Tom Gull
Looking for information on George Corey (circa 1765 - 1813) married to Catherine (probably Burgess) (circa 1778 - 1832). First confirmed in Salina Twp, Onondaga Co, NY 1798 - 1813. Thought to have died in one of the battles at Sackets Harbor, probably the main one in 1813. Son John Corey md Eve Britten; daughter Polly Corey md Tobias Goodfellow. Each of the main immigrant Corey lines was present in Onondaga County and George has no definitive ties to any of them. He was a Captain of militia from 1802 through at least 1809.
My ancestor, Adelaide Stout, married a Mr Suydam some time after 1800, probably closer to 1810. The family story says Mr. Suydam was the partner of Andrew Varick Stout, born 1812 (brother of Adelaide), who named his third son, my direct ancestor, Joseph Suydam Stout (born 1846) after Mr. Suydam. But I have not been able to confirm the story of partnership, or discovered the first name of Mr Suydam.
I am looking to try to find the NY family connection of my ancestor, Jonathan HORTON, b. possibly 1754, Westchester County (although so far, I can find no such record), d. 19 Sep 1840, Yarmouth County, Nova Scotia, Canada. He evacuated from NY at the end of the Revolutionary War, to Nova Scotia, supposedly widowed, accompanied by his young son, Israel Horton. (First wife was reported to be a Sarah Goldsmith from Blooming Grove, Orange County, NY, supposedly married 1778. Also had a child, Gabriel HORTON, b. 1781, d. 1781).
Have a John Garrison buried in 1711 in the Jamaica Queens churchyard. Would that have been a church someone from Westchester / Eastchester might have crossed the water to attend? There was also a Susannah Garrison married there in 1710 - don't believe she was related to Abraham Garrison of Gravesend - anyone familiar with that line?
