Thank you. I love the DIS.
I need to reorganize the files and find out if any of the certificates exist. My grandmothers family is mostly from NJ, NY and PA. My uncle, (moms brother) is the only one who lives back in NY still so I will grill him when he comes out in February. Although that could be a battle since my moms cousins wife wants the box of info I have. We have been battling over it for 2 or so years. I won't give it up. But that's another story.
OK as I go I may just take you up on the questions offer. I need to learn to use the Family TreeMaker internet search functions. I have been pulling and keeping the census records I have found to my computer. Definitely seems as though I will need to familiarize myself with England searches.
I hope to make friends at my local genealogical society also. Maybe they can help me also. Will be interesting.
All I can say is don't give up that box unless you make(take) all the copies you need.. and if she is a cousin's wife she really has no need for the box.. that is your direct family.. (but that's me..I'm the mean one in my family, just ask them!) I'll be happy to share my info but no one is getting all my documents especially since they didn't want them from the beginning!!
NY can be hard to find info in at times... I'll find the link to a good site I came across recently to search for some names....
Hey Lisa, cool that you found some more info!!! I'm so happy for you!!
