1835 - Malinda Hotchkiss and
Robert W. Bailey migrate from Rutland and Southport to Michigan -
another addition to our terribly underdeveloped
Emigrant
Section.- Round up some more Emigrant Biographies from the hundreds
of County Histories out there and help get this section off the ground.

Kathy's Installment 11 On her 2006 Resolution to send us something
every month (She is not behind - I am behind in getting them to the site).
She has ONE more to go to do what no one I know has EVER done - keep a
resolution for a whole year. Actually I don't even know anyone who kept
a resolution for eleven months. I don't know about you, but I think that
is a very special thing. Here are
four Towanda High School photos from the 1920s. |

Blanche, the primary computer, has been out for two days for
R&R - She is fine now and no data lost at all. Those whom I asked to
hold off sending material may do so now. I was just on the verge of running
address labels for my Christmas cards when she had a conniption fit, so
I may spend Christmas day doing my Christmas cards. |

Phyllis LONG Rockwell was finally able to notify me yesterday
that she has been gravely ill since June 6th with congestive heart failure
and nearly died in November. She is now home under the care of her daughter.
Send her a note at ladybugpr@frontiernet.net to welcome her back. We are
very glad she has come through and is with us again. |

1831 -32 Diary of Anne WEST
"Page" From Liverpool, England to New York City - She and family
settled in Athens - Green's Landing. This is by far the oldest diary we
have in our collection although we have letters of this age. It is also
the start of the Immigrant section for Athens township. An excellent submission
and a great Christmas gift to us. Thank you, Christine. This will have
you on the edge of your seat bouncing over the stormy sea. |
