In the 1950 there was a murder of a young boy named Jerry Reilly from the
Francis Road area outside of Batavia, Genesee County, NY. I went to school
in Alexander, NY. with this boy, and at the time most of the students in
my class were told very little about the crime. I have looked in the files
of the Batavia Daily News and could not find any articles about it.

Hello list,
You might be interested in the "Families of the Pioneer Valley" CD which
contains:
"Springfield Families" by Thomas B. Warren.
"Pynchon's Court Records 1638-1696".
"Pynchon's Births, Marriages and Deaths 1638-1696".
all of which were compiled from the record books he and his son kept for
a number of years.
I spoke to one of the people from Regional
http://www.RegionalPublications.com
and he informed me that the next CD's to be released will be Cemetery
records for a lot of Mass & Conn towns.

I have just finished reading Cindy Amrhein's editorial in today's Batavia "Daily
News". I could not put it down until I finished. If any of you have not seen it
yet, Cindy has promised to post it here on the maillist soon. Read it, and I am sure
you will totally agree with all points covered.
Cindy, I want to congratulate you on a superb article which not only covers all the
aspects of Mr. Betters' proposal which would affect genealogists everywhere, but

Hello all, Cindy Amrhein the "homeless historian" here, if they take
away your research places and mine!
Well I am happy to see that I was bombarded with emails in protest of
Matt Betters plan to cut funding to both our museum, The Holland Land
Office, and our county history department.
I will answer your questions in the following order, in case you get bored
and want to delete now.
First: The Holland Land Office Museum
Second: Who is Matt Betters and what is he proposing.
Third: My comments on the
Hi,
I'm trying to find some information about my gg grandfather's parents. His
name was Versal Porter and I believe he was born in Sheldon, NY in 1828.
His father's name may have been Versal also.
I would also like to know what denomination of churches Sheldon had at that
time AND where the heck is Sheldon today? I read one message on their
website that scattered it all over Wyoming County.
Thanks,
Laura Rutkowski

Good Grief!!!!!!! I hadn't seen the paper with that article yet. "Grand Plan", my
eye! I think we need to have everyone deluge him with letters to let him know just
what we think of that idea. I don't think you would find anyone out here that would
disagree with you or that would NOT support our fabulous History Department and
Museum.

Can someone tell me where I can find a listing of the marriage in Genesee Co. NY for 1812. Are they all in the churches or has some organization done a listing? Sincerely, Jane Germann, Storm Lake, IA.
Hello all,
Drop your mouse, reach around behind your head, and pat yourselves on
the back! Boy you did a great job! It is amazing what only two weeks can
do.
Many of you who wrote letters of support got an answer from Genesee
County telling you that they would be beginning their reviewing process
soon, and appreciated your input. Well today was the day for the history
dept and museum. (Mr. Betters was a no show from what I hear.)

Yes it is me again, Alabama Historian. Still thinking about our Legislator
