17 The 1840 census also reveals that a female between the ages of 50 to 59 was living in the same household. This would most likely be his first wife, Jeanne Marie. This assumption is made because his second wife Susan appears in the household in the 1850 census. Claude Francois Bichet

Paul,

Got your message about photocopies and I just wanted to inform you that the powers that
be are already in motion. My mother never has really expressed an interest in the
search of heritage and history, yet once I informed her of someone related to her
Grandfather Arthur Biggers, well... She has called me to tell me she got all her
records and documents out. We are both in the process of getting all these lines and
supporting documents into a format her Grandchildren & Great-Grandchildren can have.
You though won't have to wait that long as soon as I'm sure we've got all are notes
properly copied they along will copies of all other documents will be on the way to you
& your family. These papers will include the family line written by Arthur's own hand.


I have been reviewing the Biggers line more this week and I can now tell you that John I
came to America at the age of 38 somewhere in the range of 1842-43. He started a Carding
Mill in Dexter N.Y. His farm was 2 miles north of Brownsville N.Y. Wife Fannie Harris
died at age 56. Their children were: John II b. 1839 England // George b. abt. 1842
England // Maria b.1844 New York //James (Jim) b. 1846 (listed as a Robert 1860 census
???) The brothers John and George were available for duty at the beginning of the Civil
War. John did not join but fled to Maryland where he spent time aboard a whaling ship
and was also taken prisoner at some point and sometime later is said to have escaped.
Maybe the tales of his adventures were in his head as told to kin when he returned or
fact, maybe a little of both. George was not so lucky, Hit by a cannon ball and killed
Battle of Bull Run, Manassas, Va. after 1862, so that would make it the second battle.
Youngest son James was said to have been a math genius, "Hit in the head by his
stepmother for eating one of her pies and was never the same." I hope the pie was good.

The Stepmother John I's 2nd wife was Jane Graves b. Ireland 1819 d. 1908 / 89 years.
Graves was her 1st husband's name. Her children by Graves:
John Graves 1844 // Wm. Graves 1846 // Joseph Graves 1849 // Barnett Graves 1851 //
Approx date by census ages.

John II / oldest daughter Stella never married and is buried next to her Grandfather
John I in Dexter Cemetery, 4th row across from tall monument of Gilmore.

Nicholas Van Brocklin d. 1884 age 89 (Dutch)
Nancy Ann Schell d. 1883 age 88 (Germany)
Parents of Margaret (Van Brocklin) Biggers

Nancy Ann Schell's Father was Marcus Schell b. June 6,1764 Herkimer Co. NY Chr. July 5,
1764 Reformed Dutch Church of German Flats married Catherine Elizabeth Roan b. circa
1770 Herkimer , March 25 1788. Died after 1832 Herkimer NY

Marcus Schell's Father was Johnannes Schell arrived port of Philadelpia 1732 or 1752 /
Mother was Barbara Raspach.( I found a ship listing some years ago 10th Oct 1752 Phil.,
Tuesday Ship " FOREST" Capt. Patrick Auchterlony from Rotterdam / Maybe??? )

Do you know that both Eva & Arthur named a son Paul. Arthur's son was Paul Everett b.
June 18,1910. Strange your name is Paul. Is your line Eva's Paul Webert. We want to
know more about Eva's sons and where they went and the lives they lead. Arthur's
children where artists / landscape architect / naturalist / seems thay had a deep
appreciation for nature's beauty.

25 Most of his life was spent in the town of Orleans. Ira J. Biggers
 
26 I speculate on why John Biggers deserted the Army. Perhaps the following quote from Final Report on the Battlefield of Gettysburg (New York at Gettysburg) might explain:
"Bridge and Station, Thoroughfare Gap, and Gainesville. From August I4th to the 29th, Tower's Brigade served as the rear guard, while the Ninety-fourth was detailed as the final rear guard, much of the time deployed as skirmishers under fire, with such food as could be gleaned from corn fields, and with a constant loss of men killed, wounded, missing, or exhausted by hard service in the depressing heat of August."
--------------------
From more research, I find the following details of the "Battle At Rappahanock Station"
Battle At Rappahannock Station
Location : Culpeper County and Fauquier County.
Campaign : Northern Virginia Campaign.
Date : August 22-25, 1862.
Principal Commanders : Maj. Gen. John Pope [US]; Maj. Gen. Thomas J. Jackson [CS].
Estimated Casualties : 225 total.
On August 20 - 21, Maj. Gen. John Pope, withdrew to the line of the Rappahannock River. On August 23, Confederate cavalry made a raid on Pope's headquarters at Catlett Station. Over the next several days, the two armies fought a series of minor battles along the Rappahannock River.

Rappahannock Station
Waterloo Bridge, White Sulphur Springs
Civil War Virginia
American Civil War
August 22-25, 1862
Early August, Lee determined that McClellan's army was being withdrawn from the Peninsula to reinforce John Pope. He sent Longstreet from Richmond to join Jackson's wing of the army near Gordonsville and arrived to take command himself on August 15. August 20-21, Pope withdrew to the line of the Rappahannock River. On August 23, Stuart's cavalry made a daring raid on Pope's headquarters at Catlett Station, showing that the Union right flank was vulnerable to a turning movement. Over the next several days, August 22-25, the two armies fought a series of minor actions along the Rappahannock River, including Waterloo Bridge, Lee Springs, Freeman's Ford, and Sulphur Springs, resulting in a few hundred casualties. Together, these skirmishes primed Pope's army along the river, while Jackson's wing marched via Thoroughfare Gap to capture Bristoe Station and destroy Federal supplies at Manassas Junction, far in the rear of Pope's army.

70 1. This passenger list states the 'Native Country' for 'Antonin Weber' was Bohemia. I place reasonable doubt that he came from Bohemia. A reasonable assumption might be that Antonin may have lied about his place of origin and also may have lied about his age.
2. His citizenship papers state the following:
"Came to U.S. before he was eighteen" and "that he emigratied to the United States and landed at the port of New York on or about the 15th day of Nov., 1892." This is puzzling, since the passnger list for the S.S. Lahn clearly shows that he arrived after this date. Since Anthony did not apply for citizenship until several years later, he may have simply forgotten the emigration date, however the date is quite specific.
3. To support item 2 above, we find the following in a Watertwon Daily Times newspaper obituary (1939) for Anthony Webert: "He came to this country with his mother about 53 years ago, his father having died in Germany, and the family lived first in the town of Clayton." That would make his year of arrival in N.Y. 1886, which doesn't correspond with either the the passenger list information or his naturalization papers. However, the fact that this obituary says "He came to this country with his mother" corroborates with the fact that we see a name very close to his on the passenger list and that Elisab. Webert and her daughter Karolina (Caroline) appears very close to him in the list. This is convincing evidence that the passenger list is correct and that it is in fact Anthony Webert who is referred to as 'Antonin Weber' in the pasennger list.
4. A Tomas Weber appears next to Antonin and is also 18 years old. I have no idea who Tomas Weber is. Perhaps he was a brother or a cousin?
I do not know of a Tomas Weber in Jefferson County, N.Y., unless I am missing something.

81 Tithe Apportionments (IR 29 )
In most cases, the principal record of the commutation of tithes in a parish under the Tithe Act 1836 is the Tithe Apportionment . Strictly speaking, the tithe apportionment and the tithe map (see Tithe Maps below) together constitute a single document, but they have been separated to facilitate use and storage.

Readers normally consult microfilm copies of the tithe apportionments, for preservation reasons. To find the document reference using the Catalogue (www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue), go to the search screen, type the place-name in the first box, and IR 29 in the third box, leaving the second box empty.

Most apportionments follow the general pattern set out in the instructions which were issued at the time. The standard form of apportionment contains columns for the name(s) of the landowner(s) and occupier(s) (because until the passing of the Tithe Act 1891 the payment of tithe rentcharge was the owner's liability); the number, acreage, name or description, and state of cultivation of each tithe area; the amount of rentcharge payable, and the name(s) of the tithe-owner(s). The apportionment opens with a preamble reciting the names of the tithe-owners, the circumstances in which they owned the tithes, and whether the amount of rentcharge to be apportioned was the subject of an agreement between the landowners and the tithe-owners or of a compulsory award made by the Tithe Commissioners. The preamble usually contains, too, statistics as to the area and state of cultivation of the lands in the tithe district; the extent of the land subject to tithes and of lands, if any, exempt on various grounds from payment of tithes; and the area covered by commons, roads etc. It concludes with a statement showing the respective numbers of bushels of wheat, barley and oats which would have been obtained if one-third of the aggregate amount of rentcharge had been invested in the purchase of each of those commodities (Tithe Act 1836, s.57) at the prices prescribed by the Tithe Act 1837, s.7. The detailed apportionment of the aggregate tithe rentcharge then follows. A rentcharge is set out against each unit of charge, termed a tithe area. The amount of the charge is the par value, not the amount actually paid, which varied from year to year. The annual value of tithe rentcharge was ascertained and published yearly (Tithe Act 1836, s.56), and tables were issued from 1837 onwards which enabled the precise payment due to be calculated for the par value of any amount of rentcharge.

By the Tithe Act 1839, ss.2 and 4, the Tithe Commissioners could confirm Special Apportionments (IR 97 ) of certain charges attaching to lands subject to tithes, such as liability for chancel repairs (see Section 14).

83 The Serv @ nc'nautes were established on 1 December 1999 with a core of about 20 people, composed of amateur genealogists seeking mainly on the Vosges Saônoises (Nord-Est de la Haute-Saône in Franche-Comte). The idea came to me in order to communicate dynamically and interactively all researchers passionate about this very detailed, and having common ancestors, so sometimes cousin (e) s. But also to share and discover geographically, linguistically and historically this land ...

84 Jackson's Oxford Journal was founded by William Jackson, the Oxford University printer, in the early 18th century as a Saturday weekly. In 1795 the physician John Grosvenor became chief proprietor and editor. The first issue was published on 5 May 1753. Beneath the title of no. 1, page 1 was printed the apologia for the paper:

This paper will be more complete than any that has hitherto appeared in this Part of the Kingdom. For besides the Articles of News, foreign and domestic, in which we shall endeavour to surpass every other Paper, our situation will enable us to oblige our Readers with a particular Account of every Transaction relating to the present Opposition in Oxfordshire;....

Some fifty years afterwards, in the early nineteenth century, the newspaper, in common with others of this time, was more openly engaged in local politics, criticizing local government, and promoting local concerns. There was also commentary on national issues from a local perspective.

The paper was originally issued at a price of 2d. in 1753, rising to 5d. in 1856, and dropping to 3d. in 1882 (when its circulation was 8,000) and 1d. in 1898. The orientation of the newspaper was Conservative. It blended reporting of Oxford town and University events with summaries of events from further afield.

By 1880, the departments of the paper were: agricultural prospects, the week, university intelligence, city and council intelligence, Oxford town council, Oxford city police court, literary notices, petty sessions, general news, births/marriages/deaths, poetry, hunting appointments, markets, and country markets.

Some eighteen years later, in 1898, the coverage had widened to include: current agricultural topics, farming notes, gardening gossip, football gossip, news notes, a local review, Oxford county court, the woman's world, a regular, illustrated letter from London, district news public notices, cycling notes, cricket gossip, to correspondence, the ladies' letter, serial fiction, notes by an Oxford lady, and market news.

The amalgamation of the Oxford Journal with the Oxfordshire County News in 1898 afforded an opportunity for reflection:

In May, 1853, at the centenary of the Oxford Journal, the Editor expressed his desire to 'present a faithful mirror of the time, respecting the opinions of all, but at the same time cordially upholding all that we conceive to be dear to us as Englishmen, as lovers of order, and as faithful subjects.' The same desire animates us to-day, and we hope that our firm adhesion to our own political creed and Church principles, is consistent with, not merely tolerance, but respect for our opponents. We have never hesitated to express our own unbiased opinion on every public question upon its merits, and we shall continue to follow the same course.

The newspaper's name was changed to Oxford Journal Illustrated at the end of 1908 and it ceased publication in 1928.

Laban H. Ainsworth, Justice of the Peace in the Village of Cape Vincent
kept a record of the marriages he performed from 1846 through 1858, with
the exception of 1847-1849. The Vital Records of 1847-1849 were kept by
the state, and are on this website under the various towns.
In 1858 Mr. Ainsworth evidently became Recorder for the city of
Watertown, and he continued his register of marriages there until 1887.

CHILD'S BUSINESS DIRECTORY
OF JEFFERSON COUNTY
This project has been made possible by the efforts of many volunteers. The Volunteer page is an effort to express our appreciation for the sometimes boring and tedious work they have put in. Their labors benefit all the users of this page.
Hamilton Child compiled and published gazetteers for many of the counties of the northeastern states. His Geographical Gazetteer of Jefferson County, N.Y. was published in 1890, but at least some of the information appears to have been collected a couple of years previously. Child sent out canvassers who covered the county, selling advertisements in the book, collecting the biographies found elsewhere on this site, getting orders for the books themselves, and soliciting contributions toward the publishing of the book. These men (probably always men) went from house to house, but obviously did not always get their information first hand.

Therefore, though the business directory contains names of farmers, residents, laborers and other less important people not represented in the biographical section, not all names are given here, either. If you know your ancestor lived in Jefferson County in 1890, and his name does not appear here, it simply means that the canvasser missed him, for whatever reason. If the name does appear, however, it is fairly certain that person lived here.

The directory is organized by township. We have provided a separate page for the Child's business information for each town. These pages can be accessed by he clicks below, or by a click from the town page.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The directory is arranged as follows:
1. Name of individual or firm.
2. Postoffice address in parentheses if different from the name of the town.
3. The figures following the letter r indicate the number of the road on which the party resides, and will be found on the northern map for the northern part of the county, and southern map for the southern part of the county. Where no road number is given, the party is supposed to reside in the village.
4. Business or occupation.
5. A star (*) placed before a name indicates an advertiser in this work.
6. Figures after the occupation of a farmer indicate the number of acres owned or leased.
7. Names in CAPITALS are those who have kindly given their patronage to the work, and without whose aid the publication would have been impossible.

97 NOTES TAKEN FROM:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyjeffer/cwbro.htm

In 1865, NY State Bureau of Military Record required each town clerk to make a report of the service personnel serving in the Civil War from his town. The suggestions, reproduced below, explain the nature of each entry. The originals should be kept by each township, but some have disappeared over the years. Most of the towns of Jefferson County are recorded on microfilm at the New York State Archives. The Town of Brownville, from that microfilm, has been deciphered and committed to electronic data by Joan Bray, a volunteer who has done a marvelous job.
More towns will be posted as they are processed.
For ease in downloading, the list has been arbitrarily divided into 24 parts or pages. The names are in the order found on the original town clerk's list. Either scroll down through the pages, or use the search engine found on the front or index page of the Jefferson County GenWebSite to reach the name. 		Source: Civil War Servicemen - Town of Brownville
 
98 Description:
The Civil War Compiled Military Service Records are part of a historic effort to compile and link all available records of soldiers serving in individual states during the Civil War. This database is a listing of over 5.3 million men who served in the war. Taken from records housed in the National Archives, each record provides the soldier's name, company, and unit. Also provided is the individual's rank when inducted and rank when discharged. For researchers of ancestors who may have served in the American Civil War this can be an informative database.
Extended Description:
Union records were taken from National Archives Record Group 94. Confederate records were taken from National Archives Record Group 109 microfilm series M253.
Compiled Military Service Records (CMSR) Each volunteer soldier has one Compiled Military Service Record (CMSR) for each regiment in which he served. The CMSR contains basic information about the soldier's military career, and it is the first source the researcher should consult. The CMSR is an envelope (a jacket) containing one or more cards. These cards typically indicate that the soldier was present or absent during a certain period of time. Other cards may indicate the date of enlistment and discharge, amount of bounty paid him, and other information such as wounds received during battle or hospitalization for injury or illness. The soldier's place of birth may be indicated; if foreign born, only the country of birth is stated. The CMSR may contain an internal jacket for so-called "personal papers" of various kinds. These may include a copy of the soldier's enlistment paper, papers relating to his capture and release as a prisoner of war, or a statement that he had no personal property with him when he died. Note, however, that the CMSR rarely indicates battles in which a soldier fought; that information must be derived from other sources.
A CMSR is as complete as the surviving records of an individual soldier or his unit. The War Department compiled the CMSRs from the original muster rolls and other records some years after the war to permit more rapid and efficient checking of military and medical records in connection with claims for pensions and other veterans' benefits. The abstracts were so carefully prepared that it is rarely necessary to consult the original muster rolls and other records from which they were made. When the War Department created CMSRs at the turn of the century, information from company muster rolls, regimental returns, descriptive books, hospital rolls, and other records was copied verbatim onto cards. A separate card was prepared each time an individual name appeared on a document. These cards were all numbered on the back, and these numbers were entered onto the outside jacket containing the cards. The numbers on the jacket correspond with the numbers on the cards within the jacket. These numbers were used by the War Department only for control purposes while the CMSRs were being created; the numbers do not refer to other records regarding a veteran nor are they useful for reference purposes today.

To whom it may concern:

I received the entire file of the above referenced military record (Civil War), however, I have a two complaints and a request.
Complaint 1:
There seems to be no file/record number or record series information (source citation) refering to this particular military record. Is this a record in a series? I do see a number written on the index page ("206"), but I do not know what this means or refers to. Please advise.

Complaint 2:
The first page of the military record contains fifteen Card Numbers, however, I cannot match up the card numbers with each of the copies of the cards provided. Since the copies of the numbers were not provided together with their respective cards, there is no way of knowing which number belongs to which card. Please send a photo copy of each number, stapled to the copy of each card and send them.

As a genealogist, it is important that I obtain the requested information (as described above) to properly cite my sources.

Please send requested copies and supplemental source information to:

"NOTE: The national Grange, officially called The Patrons of Husbandry, was founded in 1867. By 1875 there were 850,000 members in more than 21,000 granges throughout the United States. The grange movement lost many members in the 1880s, but began to grow again in the 1890s, and built a large membership based on its social, legislative and educational programs. A fraternal order with its own secret ritual, it was based on equality of men and women. Women could hold any office, though the four posts of Flora, Ceres, and Pomona, representing godesses of flowers, grains and fruits, as well as Lady Assistant Steward, were reserved for women. In 1905 Jefferson County had 34 Granges. These were organized under the county, or Pomona Grange, which in turn, was subject to the State Grange.

An interesting side note here.
Wayland F. Ford, the person who notarized Anthony's naturalization petition, was active in the military. The following information was taken from this page:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~nyjeffer/hadorle.htm

WAYLAND F. FORD is the eldest son of Rev. Lewis T. Ford, who was born in Eaton, Madison county, in 1809, and in time graduated at Madison University, studied theology and entered the ministry. He married Arminda Stetson, of Cooperstown, by whom he had six children - Wayland F., Marie E., William G., and Charles H. Wayland F. was born in LaFargeville, June 26, 1838, during the incumbency of his father as pastor of the First Baptist Church, and was one of the first students in the short-lived Orleans Academy, where he prepared for college going thence to Madison University. In 1856 he began the study of law, and was admitted to the bar in 1861m beginning practice at LaFargeville the same year. In October he enlisted in the 94th N. Y. Infantry, and in March, 1862 was promoted to second lieutenant of Company E, and was discharged by reason of its consolidation with the 105th Infantry. In May, 1863, he enlisted in Troop M, 20th N. Y. Calvary, and was promoted to first lieutenant of Troop D., September 4, 1863, and to be captain of the same troop October 13, 1863. He was discharged with the regiment July 31, 1865, and resumed the practice of law at LaFargeville. In 1866 he married Miss Maria Cline, of Three Mile Bay. Captain Ford has built up an extensive practice, as a result of careful attention to the interests of his clients, coupled with a thorough knowledge of his profession. His sister, Marie E., is the wife of Byron J. Strough, of LaFargeville.

113 Tithe Maps (IR 30 )
The Tithe Maps are by no means as uniform as the apportionments (see Section 6), varying greatly in scale, accuracy and size. At the outset, the Tithe Commissioners had attempted to secure a uniform and high standard. However in most casesthere was no suitable map already in existence, and while there were many skilled land surveyors available, the expense of any new survey had to be met by the landowners. Insistence upon a fixed standard would have retarded the progress of commutation, so concessions therefore had to be made. When the 1836 Act was amended in the following year, a provision was inserted to the effect that, whilst every tithe map should be signed by the Commissioners, a map or plan should not be deemed evidence of the quantity of the land, or treated as accurate, unless it was sealed as well as signed by the Commissioners (Tithe Act 1837, s.1). Approximately 1,900 only of the tithe maps - about one-sixth of the whole - were sealed by the Tithe Commissioners, and it is these alone - called first-class maps - which can be accepted as accurate. The unsealed (or second-class) maps constitute a very mixed collection - indeed, some are little more than topographical sketches.

In many cases, discrepancies between apportionment and map subsequently created difficulties in the administration of payments and redemptions. At the time of the survey, when all the landowners concerned were well acquainted with the ground, the exact area of a piece of land or its precise delineation on a map might have appeared of little significance. The matter assumed more importance as time went on, particularly when readily-identifiable tithe areas vanished as a result of later developments. It is unnecessary to discuss in detail the problems of interpreting a tithe map; but it is well to bear in mind that reliance cannot be placed upon the area of individual tithe areas stated in an apportionment or computed from the tithe map, unless the map is sealed.

The numbers of the tithe areas on the map correspond to those in the schedules to the apportionment. These numbers are not consecutive. In order to facilitate reference, most tithe apportionments of any size had a numerical key added, showing the page of the apportionment upon which each tithe area appears (these are purely for convenience of reference and form no part of the original documents). Even so, there are traps for the unwary. The same series of tithe area numbers may be duplicated upon a tithe map, due, in most cases, to the fact that more than one township is included in the same tithe district. There are some anomalies and duplications that are not easily explained. Again, different series of numbers may be differentiated by letters or some other sign, either in the original apportionment or in subsequent altered apportionments, as, for example, 22, 22a, 22Aa, A22. Confusion may easily result if care is not taken to observe the absolute correspondence of the number in the apportionment with the number on the map.

A number of tithe maps were so heavily used that they fell into a state of disrepair. Some of these maps were copied by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries, and in such cases it is these copies rather than the original maps which are now in IR 30 . The original maps, together with a few drafts and earlier versions of tithe maps are preserved as Tithe Maps Supplementary (IR 77 ). Although the maps in the two series are not always identical, many of those in the supplementary series are in poor condition and should not be consulted unless the maps in IR 30 fail to provide the required information. Some are unfit for production.

The tithe maps have been partially copied to microfiche (English counties alphabetically up to and including Middlesex) and readers requiring maps for these counties normally consult the microfiche copies, for preservation reasons. To find the document reference using the Catalogue (www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue), go to the search screen, type the place-name in the first box, and IR 30 in the third box, leaving the second box empty.

Ordnance Survey maps used by the tithe authorities to record the boundaries of tithe districts and other information relating to tithe rentcharge etc. are to be found in IR 93 and IR 105 .

121 This database is an index to the passenger lists of ships arriving from foreign ports at the port of New York from 1851-1891. In addition, the names found in the index are linked to actual images of the passenger lists, copied from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) microfilm, M237, rolls 95-580.
Passenger lists are are one of many sources used to obtain immigration information. They may also provide information that may help you to continue research in your ancestor's homeland.
Information contained in the index includes given name, surname, age, gender, arrival date, port of arrival, port of departure and ship name. If a place of origin or place of nativity was provided, that information is included in the index as well. Many of these items may be used to search the index in the search template above.
It is important to note that the port of departure listed on these passenger lists is not always the original port of departure for these individuals. A ship could make several voyages throughout the year, making several stops along way. Oft times the port of departure found on these lists is the most recent port the ship was located at prior to arriving at the port of New York. Therefore, if your ancestors emigrated to the U.S. from Germany, they could be found on a passenger list coming from Liverpool, England (if, in this case, the ship left from Bremen, Germany then continued on to Liverpool, England before arriving in New York).
The microcopies of the passenger lists found at NARA are arranged chronologically by arrival date of vessel. If you do not wish to search this database using the search template, the images may be browsed following the chronological arrangement provided by NARA. To browse the images first select the "Year" in which you would like to search, followed by the "Month", and finally the "Ship Name".

122 In New York (U.S.A.) state censuses were taken every ten years from 1825-1875, in 1892, and then again from 1905-1925. This database is an index to, with corresponding images of, parts of the 1880, 1892, and 1905 censuses. Information available in this database includes name, gender, age, race or color, birthplace, enumeration place, year of enumeration, relationship to head of household, and number of years living in the U.S.

In New York state censuses were taken every ten years from 1825-1875, in 1892, and then again from 1905-1925. This database is an index to, with corresponding images of, parts of the 1880, 1892, and 1905 censuses. Currently this database includes the following counties:

1880 (approx. 27,600 records):

Rockland
1892 (approx. 364,000 records):

Broome
Chautaugua
Essex
Herkimer
Lewis
Orleans
Rockland
Schoharie
Warren
Wayne
1905 (approx. 117,000 records):

Lewis
Orleans
Schoharie
Wayne
While some state censuses may not be as valuable as others, depending on the year and amount of information recorded, they are still important sources and should not be overlooked. They can be especially useful for tracking ancestors in between Federal Census years. Since the 1890 Federal Census was damaged and destroyed by fire in 1921, the 1892 census is especially important as it is able to provide information that would otherwise be obtainable from the 1890 Federal Census. Information available in this index includes:

Name
Gender
Age
Race or color
Birthplace (usually this will be country, but may include a city and/or state)
Enumeration place (town and county)
Year of enumeration (1880, 1892, or 1905)
Relationship to head of household (only listed in 1905)
Number of years in the U.S. (only listed in 1905 and for people born outside the U.S.)
Additional information, such as an occupation, may be listed on the actual census and can be found by viewing the accompanying image.
Where can New York state censuses be found?
A lot of the state copies of the censuses from 1855-1905 were ruined in the 1911 state library fire. Most of the surviving schedules can be found with the county clerk, while others may be in the custody of the county historian. Microfilmed copies of the censuses can be found in other libraries, repositories, and institutions, such as the Library of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society and the Family History Library.
Some of the above information was taken from Roger D. Joslyn, "New York," in Red Book: American State, County, and Town Sources, ed. Alice Eichholz. (Salt Lake City, Utah: Ancestry, 1992). 		Source: New York State Census Collection

Subject: RE: Tithe map of Witney? - our ref. 11475

Ref: 14.2.P/RH/4561

Dear Mr Kelly

Thank you for your enquiry concerning the Witney Tithe map.

We hold the original Witney tithe map and it is dated (very clearly, I'm glad to say!) 1840 (ref: 436). The map, of which you have a scan, is also held here and is a certified copy with a tithe commission stamp in the top right hand corner dated 4 August 1841 (ref: Misc. Witney I/i/2). The hand written date is therefore, presumably,1841 but quite why they changed it from 1840 when the map is meant to be a true copy of the original I really don't know.

We also hold the tithe apportionment which will give the location of John Biggers's property. Unfortunately the apportionment is too large to scan. We can transcribe his entry for you if you would like us to do so but will have to charge a research fee of £12.50 to cover 1/2 hour's research time. If you would like us to proceed, please write to the address below and enclose a STERLING cheque made payable to 'Oxfordshire County Council'. Thank you.

127 A half-dozen Catholic families were residing in the village of Watertown in 1830, but the first Mass in Watertown was not celebrated until 1831 in the home of one such family. Then part of the Diocese of New York, which encompassed the entire state, the few Catholic families of Watertown were served intermittently by priests from Utica, Rome and Syracuse. Later, they formed the Catholic Society of Watertown, and began to hold services more regularly in rented space, such as the Beebee Schoolhouse near the Depot behind the Woodruff House.
As the faith community grew, a more permanent location was sought. In 1838, Father Michael Gilbride purchased the 10-year-old Baptist Church on Factory Street, where Morrison's Furniture store now stands, for $1,300 and renamed it St. Mary's. The first Mass celebrated on Oct. 29, 1838.
Watertown was a mission of St. James Church, Carthage, until it became an independent parish in 1851. Five years later, reflecting ethnic and cultural differences of the growing immigrant population, Irish Catholics began construction of their own church, St. Patrick's, leaving the French-speaking Catholics to worship on Factory Street. They purchased St. Mary's Church and on July 7, 1857, the parish was incorporated. It was served by priests out of Cape Vincent, starting with Father Louis Lapic.
In 1872, the Diocese of Ogdensburg was created out of the Diocese of Albany, which had included all of Northern New York. Bishop Edgar P. Wadhams became the first bishop of the new diocese and began seeking priests to minister to Northern New York Catholics and requested the bishop of Montreal, Canada, to send a French-speaking priest to take up permanent residence in Watertown.
Father Jean-Baptiste Chappel, MSC, was assigned to St. Mary's Parish in December 1875, marking the beginning of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart in the United States. Since St. Mary's did not have a rectory, he took up residence at the "vast house" on Thompson Street. Father Chappel also became pastor of St. Mary's Parish in Evans Mills.
The following May, Father Joseph Durin, MSC, and two seminarians arrived from France and in June 1876, the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart purchased the "vast house" for $8,000 to establish the oldest MSC community in the New World. It is now the second oldest MSC community in the world outside Issoudon, France, where the order was formed in 1854 by Father Jules Chevalier.
The small but energetic MSC community devoted itself to several ambitious projects which continued to serve the parish, Catholics in surrounding communities and the order down through the past 121 years. On Dec. 8, 1876, they established the Association of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart to foster devotion to the Blessed Mother through a magazine published by the priests and brothers in Watertown. It was made an Archconfraternity by Pope Pius IX in March 1877, with its headquarters in Watertown until it was moved to the provincial offices in Aurora, 111., in 1987.
Also in 1877, the parish organized its first strawberry festival, later called Lawn-Fete, to raise money, which continued until 1935. It was the precursor of today's annual parish festival.
In 1878, Father Durin (pastor, 1878-1881) established Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Parish and began construction of a church next to the MSC residence on Thompson Street to replace St. Mary's Church. The first mass was celebrated in the new church on July 28 of that year.
Father Durin was also responsible for the start of formal Catholic education in Watertown. He prevailed upon the bishop to permit three Sisters of St. Joseph from Buffalo to open a school in the parish. In January 1881, Father Durin purchased the frame house at 114 West Main St. to serve as Immaculate Heart convent and motherhouse for the Sisters of St. Joseph in Watertown and as a boarding school.
In the next few years, the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart would also serve missions in Chaumont, Belleville, Lorraine, LaFargeville, Rosiere, Felts Mills, Redwood and Rutland. In 1903, they began a mission for Italian-Americans on the west side of the city, which later became St. Anthony's Parish.
The MSC community in Watertown also began a novitiate to train seminarians and in 1885 Father Benjamin Grom began construction of St. Joseph Apostolic School adjoining the rectory. For the next 20 years, it would train about 20 priests to serve the society that was expanding in the United States and the Province of Quebec, Canada. One of its students, Father Pierre Lesperance was the first American to be ordained a Missionary of the Sacred Heart and served as pastor from 1893 to 1900.
The school was closed in 1905, but reopened in 1928 to provide education for seminarians until a new seminary was built in Quebec City in 1960. The Apostolic School became a high school seminary (Sacred Heart Prep Seminary) until it closed in 1976.
For almost 30 years, the wooden church on Thompson Street served the new parish until 1906 when Father Stephen Royet began plans for a new church at the corner of Thompson and West Lynde streets. The new church built in Gothic style with its many spires and vaulted ceilings was dedicated on the feast of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart on May 31, 1906. The old church was moved to Davidson Street, where it has served as the location of the North Side Improvement League and later the Odd Fellows Hall. Today it is occupied by the Disabled Persons Action Organization.
In 1923. the parish opened Sacred Heart School with six grades, adding one grade each year until it served students through eighth grade in 1925. It was also during this time, under the pastorate of Father Amedee Lacasse that the parish was legally incorporated and became territorial, rather than ethnic, to serve Catholics on the north side of the Black River.
With the parish continuing to grow, a kindergarten was opened on Thompson Street in 1950. From the mid-1950s to 1960. during the pastorate of Father J. Arthur Francoeur, several expansions took place to add a cafeteria, gymnasium, classrooms, offices and library to serve students through ninth grade. Today, the school provides instruction from pre-school through grade eight with high school students attending Immaculate Heart Central School.
Tragedy struck the parish the night of Feb. 13, 1969, when fire of unknown origin destroyed the beautiful church on West Lynde Street. Despite being saddened and shocked by their loss, parishioners under the leadership of the pastor Rev. Benoit Dostie quickly set about the task of replacing their place of worship. A building committee was formed and a funding drive organized, including a parish festival which was held in June 1969. It has continued every year since then to bring together parishioners in a spirit of friendship and cooperation for one of the parish's most important yearly events. Nearly 2,000 people attended the dedication of the new church on Nov. 7, 1971.
Although the parish is served by two members of the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart, the order is also represented by several active and retired priests and brothers in residence at the monastery on Thompson Street. Since 1986, the order has again been responsible for St. Mary's Parish in Evans Mills. In their concern for the poor and needy, members of the order serve as chaplains at Genesis Healthcare center (formerly Mercy Hospital) and at New York State correctional facilities, with the assistance and support of parishioners in both ministries. The interrelationship between the parish and the MSC order is particularly evident in the Sacred Heart Foundation, a not-for-profit organization headquartered at the monastery. The Foundation raises funds to provide scholarships to MSC seminarians in the United States and abroad. While the order serves the parish in many ways, their very presence is an example of love and service to the community in fulfilling the mission of the Church.
Through the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart the parish also has special ties to the mission of Papua New Guinea. Father Durin led the first group of MSC priests to the missions in 1881. Two former priests served in the missions prior to coming to Watertown, and a former parochial vicar and brother at Our Lady of the Sacred Heart are presently serving there. Through their efforts and the work of the parish Mission Animation Committee, individuals and organizations in the parish have developed and promoted stronger ties between the missions and the parish in financial and other forms of support.
Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Parish has an active lay congregation of 1,200 families involved in every aspect of church life. As the following pages will show, the parishioners share in the ministerial and sacramental life of the church in preparing children and adults for the sacraments, in the many aspects of the liturgy, in outreach to the poor and to senior citizens and especially in the evangelizing mission of the Church.
