1. Re: [NY-HudsonRV) Peekskill [1]
Dear Jan, My roots are also very connected to Peekskill and Verplancks Point. You may have seen earlier posts where I discussed that my gggrandfather started a towing business out of Verplanck called Shamrock Towing. It's major focus being hauling the brick from Haverstraw and Verplanck down the Hudson into New York Harbor. In my research, I have researched a number of resources regarding brickmaking: 1. Check with the Field Museum in Peekskill. They have a whole file
2. [NY-HudsonRV) Peekskill and Patents [1]
My questions on patents and Peekskill generated a LOT of good information which --as thanks--I pass along. Even if you don't know that your ancestor had a patent, plug his name in and you might find something new! Each has a written description, a scale drawing, a number, the date of application and date of filing--and the signature of the inventor and his witnesses, so there are 'extras'. I like the personal signatures of the inventor--makes them so real! First: the patent HQs near Stanford I physical

4. [NY-HudsonRV) Ben TAUB, Poughkeepsie, 1913 [1]
Is anyone familiar with a Benne or Benjamin TAUB who lived in Poughkeepsie, NY early in the 20th century? I found a ship's manifest for his wife, who traveled under the name Chaye DAJBOCH to join him in 1913. She was from Wisoke-Litovsk, now Vysokoye in Belarus, and left behind a brother named Aizek ZAJBEL. DAJBOG/DAIBOCH is the original name of my grandfather, who became Sam FEINBERG in America. And my mother told me they had relatives in NY City named SOBEL (from ZAJBEL?) I'm hoping that anyone de
5. Re: [NY-HudsonRV) Peekskill [1]
if he would have to get the patent in NYC it would be in the Old Records Dept, probably- the place is the most interesting place to research- the entire 7th floor of the building is filled with shelves of old manuscripts, and this tall skinny man named Bruce helps you- he is a genius. You have to look in one of the file books first, and get the number and he finds it and if you're lucky it doesn't fall apart.! That building is called the County Clerks Office, Div. Old Records, on Chambers St, and mak

I have a ?G grandfather who got a patent on a truss for hernias in c. 1835. He lived in Pottsville, Pennsylvania. Where would I find this patent?

8. [NY-HudsonRV) "ARDSLEY" (Cyrus Field) Irvington on Hudson [1]
I understand that Cyrus W. Field (of Trans-Atlantic cable fame) had a mansion house "ARDSLEY", at Irvington on Hudson, NY. Can anyone please tell me who owned or occupied that residence c.1860-1862? Any other information will also be welcome, particularly some idea as to the number and duties of staff who would have been employed there at that time. Thank you, David (Edinburgh, Scotland.)
9. Re: [NY-HudsonRV) Patents [1]
Thank you! I am receiving lots of very good suggestions. Will gather through tomorrow, then put them all up in case others have patentees and want to investigate.

10. Re: [NY-HudsonRV) Does anyone have any information on the family of author Richard Yates? [1]
I would like to research geneology and family history on the author. Was he of Irish decent? Was his family origin from Sligo, Ireland? --------------------------------- Access over 1 million songs - Yahoo! Music Unlimited.
11. [NY-HudsonRV) repeats to NY-HUDSONRV Digest, Vol 2, Issue 11 [1]
I just what to say first all of this information about patents for brick making and the like is interesting, but what it necessary for everyone who replied to the original post including it's author Jan Miller, to include the entire thread in each individual post? I think each of you knows what you are referring to as do the rest of us, so I think we can follow the story without having a Digest email a mile long.
12. [NY-HudsonRV) Peekskill [1]
My Great Grandfather, John Ormerod, is the patentee of Patent #122642--for an "Improvement in Brick-Machines". I have a copy of the written description and a drawing of same, including his signature and those of his 2 witnesses--C. E. Swift and Fred. Seymour. (There were other patents issued in his name, but I haven't been able to return to the film source--near Stanford U.campus). I'd like to know where I can find more information about this manufacturing company--first of all, it's name; then, how long

well- I just wonder if patents had to be registered in a certain place and NYC sounds like a likely place in the early days- Sue ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jan Miller" To: Sent: Friday, February 02, 2007 10:04 AM Subject: Re: [NY-HudsonRV) Peekskill > Thanks sue >>From your description, I would love to visit there -- with a Laundry List >>of > other things to poke into....... > The Brooklyn [NYC] patents are all attributable to the Mathews Bo

The Brooklyn [NYC] patents are all attributable to the Mathews Bottling Company, so I would not be able to tell if John Ormerod or another person were the inventor. But it raises the question, would the patent awarded for the Peekskill inventions/firm have been recorded in New York City just as a routine repository for such things......

Jan- Sorry I can't give you a URL right now (my CPU died yesterday so I can only use it in Safe Mode until next week, and am using my daughter's Mac laptop for mail), but I've found info about my 3x grt-granfather's patent for annealing steel to cast iron in 1803. I'll save your message and perhaps can get back to you later. Or you could e-mail me after the end of next week, when I shld have a replacement. There are a couple of Congressional sites that are fairly easy to search and you may find info there
