1. (Cornell) Photographic Tompkins Album [1]
While in Nashville, TN today I found an album of tintype photos. The album is 5 3/4 x 4 1/2 inches in size, with a metal clasp for closing. The spine is taped. The photos in the album are labeled with some stating relationships. I could not bear the thought of someone purchasing the album and removing all of the lovely tintypes and selling them one by one. I am searching for a direct descendant of Alpheus Tompkins and his wife Rachel Miller. I would like to see this album returned to the family. I am

Edith, I hope so too. I would like to find a home, for the album, with someone who is willing to share the photos and protect them from harm. Regards, Virginia

Hi, Jeffrey, Somewhere I did read that Joseph Cornell was supposed to be a descendant of one of the Dutch Cornell lines. The one I would guess at the moment is Thomas Cornell, b. 1699, who lived at Jamaica, LI and had descendants later in northern Dutchess Co. where two of my Canadian Cornell ancestors also lived for a short time.

Tom, My wife is a niece descendent of the Ezra Cornell line and had a Charles Cornell Barker, Wm Cornell Barker and Emily Cornell in her line that lived in central Michigan... Lansing, Ingham Co, and/or Jackson Co and/or Livingston, Co. areas... we are all Michigan born and raised but now enjoy the warm tropical breezes of the Palm Beach area of FL. We may be interested but would like to pin down the specifics on who the pictures include if possible... Let me know what they have or how we ca

9. (Cornell) EGBERT CORNELL/CORNWELL [1]
Am having a problem finding Egbert Cornell/Cornwell's parents. First record I have is 1860 Census at Town of Redfield, Oswego Co., NY and listed as: Egbert Cornwall (age 44) with wife, Theda I. Cole (1820-1865), Children: Elisha Etson b. abt. 1851, Eugene B. b. Aug. 1856, George b. abt. 1858. I have Eugene's records. A family member has told of a George Cornwell coming from Michigan to visit in Jefferson Co., NY. I believe my maternal grandfather was named after this George. Egbert's Civil War record
10. Re: (Cornell) Ezra Cornell - brief history [1]
Jeffrey and others. Those interested in reading a more complete description of Ezra's life are urged to find one of his biographies. Ezra's son Alonzo B. wrote of his father in "True and Firm" which I've not seen. Perhaps copies can be found in larger libraries. By now, it's probably a rare book. More readily available is "The Builder" by Philip Dorf, Macmillan, New York, 1952 which I found used from one of the on-line book sellers for about $10 plus shipping, as I recall. My advice is not to get

Think yourself lucky, Tom - my own line ends with my GGG-grandfather John Cornell, born Saffron Walden, Essex c 1785, and despite (of perhaps because of) Saffron Walden being the heartland of the Cornells, no one's been able carry his line back further - although the

Just found this nice article published at the Cornell Daily Sun website. Thought others would be interested. Published on The Cornell Daily Sun (http://cornellsun.com) The Man Behind the University By Niyati Harneja Created Oct 12 2007 - 12:00am It is hard to miss the bronze statue immortalizing Ezra Cornell that stands across from Goldwin Smith Hall in the Arts Quad. Daily, hundreds of students pass by the numerous tributes to Ezra Cornell spread around the campus. This year marks his 200th birthday, y

Hello, Dr. Huber, My home is in Indiana, and we are presently enjoying (?) clouded skies and 64 degrees with the possibility later of sun and low 70s. Of course, you have it nicer, I am sure. The Ezra Cornell did not, so far as I am able to tell, have any Barker nieces or nephews. Children of his brothers would have been, of course, Cornells. His sisters married: Lucretia: Thomas Chace Phebe: Martin B. Wood Mary: Hiram D. Robertson Deborah: James Wood Jane: James Finch You will have to excuse me

Hello All, Just out of curiosity, I was wondering if anyone knows of the ancestry of the following two famous "Cornells." Joseph Cornell - Famous Assemblage Artist associated with the Surrealists. I read a fascinating bio of him called Utopia Parkway - and I do mean fascinating, I highly recommend it. In this bio, the author states that Joseph is the third or forth Joseph I. Cornell in the line. Haven't taken the time to trace him, but he was born December 24, 1903, in Nyack, New York. Chris Cornell - Le

Readers, I'm looking for someone related to or descended from the Cornells and Westfalls in Livingston Co., MI who would be interested in a collection of old family photos. A lady just contacted me saying she and another lady rescued a number of them and would love to put them back in family hands. These are families who were well described in "Cornell Cousins" some years ago. Please write me if you are interested or can give me a lead on finding such a person. I'll be happy to tell you who are i

Mel, No pix were included. I'm in Texas at the moment visiting my son and his family. I'll be headed home tomorrow. All I have were two photos which were sent me by one of the two ladies who were the ones actually rescued them. What is your connection to this family?
