Soloman,
Do you have any Johnsons in your family? When I inquire about Johnsons at Minisink website it says to see Kuykendall and I see that in your inquiry the second person, Femetry, married a Johnson. I am interested in Johnsons in the area. They go back to a Rev. War soldier in R.I.

| Help! I am looking for information regarding the Crawford family in Minisink. William Crawford was born 03/02 1731. He had three wives (one at a time of course :-)) firstly Elizabeth Allen of Chatham, and he had a daughter there around 1778. He then moved to Port Jervis and married a French woman named Catherine Suiter (Souter, Soutter?). Her son was named James and he was the Bridge tender. His third wife was Catherine Smith, or Rolf, or Rolfsmith and I can never find any more information on her. The rest of William's decendents were with this third wife. Is there any more information out there? |

Seeking information on parents of McCarty Wright of Sussex County. Born 1815. His wife was Sarah Peters, daughter of Henry Peters and Elicabeth Chardavoyne. His son is Robert Slockbar Wright born in 1843, also in Sussex County.
We believe that his mother's name is Rachel and she was born in New Jersey circa 1777. Deed of conveyance in Sussex County made in 1842 states that Rachel and her husband Moses Wright relocated to Minisink in 1842.
Any help is deeply appreciated.

I am researching the family of Horace Holly who is buried in the Manning Cemetery in Greenville, NY. I am particularly interested trying to locate his parents. Census records indicate he was born 1829 in New York and his parents in Ireland. He was married to Mary Quick. His son Oscar Holly is also buried in the Manning Cemetery.
Thanks,

Hi My Sixth Grandfather was Wilhelums Westbrook, born October 3, 1748. He Assisted in establishing American Independence, while acting in the capacity of Ensign in Captain Harken's Company, 2nd Regiment, Sussex County, New Jersey during the Revolutionary War. Her was married to Aeltje Westbrook (Jobes). Anthony Westbrook could be related, perhaps a brother? My records only go back this far. Eva Terwilliger (Westbrook) (my first cousin four times removed), was the President of the Minisink Valley historical Society. I am looking for any photos of her or other in my family. Are we related??
Thanks

I am seeking the ancestors of Catrina (Catharina?) VREDENBURGH who married 24/26 Dec 1781 in (probably Clarkstown) Orange County,NY Cornelius VANDERBILT.
A family tree in Ancestry.com has a Catrina VREDENBURGH b. 1764 in Minisink, Orange, NY daughter of Wilhemus VAN FREDENBURGH and Elizabeth VAN GARDEN.
Does anyone have any information that would confirm or discredit that this Catrina VREDENBURGH was the one who married the VANDERBILT?
Thanks in advance.

| I am in possession of a Middaugh geneology dating back to Teunis Gijsbertssen Middagh, born about 1620 in Holland, emigrating to America at about age 20. There is a fairly detailed listing of descendants (names and dates of birth). In the sixth generation appears a Hendrick Cortright "Case" Middaugh (apparently the first to use this spelling), born 1754 Sussex County, NJ, married Jennetje Van Aken, Machackemeck, Orange, NY. One of his 11 children was Sarah Middagh who married a Daniel Quick, Westfall Township,PA. Any info on this particular Quick or any Middaughs of this time frame would be appreciated. |

| I am researching an ancestor named Henrietta Dippel. She was the sister of my great grandfather. I just found a NY Times article about the sale of the High Point Inn in 1910, and it mentioned that she had been leasing the property for the previous two years. I want to find out why she leased it and any information about business ventures she might have had in Port Jervis NY during that time frame. Any leads would be appreciated. |

Researching William Ennis (DOB 27 Jan 1712) in Kingston, Ulster, NY and his wife Elizabeth Quick (DO Christening 28 Jan 1722) in Rochester, Ulster, New York. Need information on William's service during the Am. Revolution. DAR says he was too old to be in the militia or lines. Need to find out if he signed an Oath of Allegiance or gave a side of beef, etc. Their children were baptized in the Minisink Valley Reformed Dutch Church as evidenced in the published book. Daniel was baptized 8 Dec 1745 and more children followed. Would appreciate any help,

Peter Brink b. perhaps about 1770, and Jacyomyntje (Jemima) McCaby/McKeeby b. about 1771 have two sons whose baptismal records appear in the Minisink Valley Reformed Dutch Church Records, 1716-1830. Dennis bp 1796 and John bp 1800.
Henry J. Brink b. 1763, son of Peter Brink b. 1734 and Aalida Middagh, is in Aurelius, Cayuga, NY in 1800; by 1804/05 he is in the Black Brook locality, Lot #46, Tyre, Seneca, New York.
Archibald, the last child of Henry J, and his first wife, is born about 1811. First Occupants of the Old Cemetery on the Nearpass Lot are the wife of George Nearpass and (the wife of?) Henry J. Brink. Likely this is the first wife of Henry J. Brink?

For more info, Asher's parents are Ephraim Kimble Atkinson and Anna Kimble-ATKINSON and Marilla's parents are James Rosencranse and Sarah Jane Sutton-ROSENCRANSE.
