I noticed your reply about West Troy, NY.
this maybe a long shot but maybe you could give me a place to start.
I just received my gggrandfather's pension papers from the Civil War. in it his widow Harriet, states that she and her husband Benjamin Franklin Washburn were married in West Troy, NY July 14, 1847 by Justice of the Peace Martin Winney
I had found that Watervliet was the name of the town now. She states that she believed there were no documents of that marriage. Does Watervliet have any old documents for marriage.
Also states in the pension papers that husband was born Putnam, NY 1826 they moved to Essex Co., NY by 1849 were all their children were born.
I would be interested to know about the documents

Thank you for any information you may have!

Try Rensselaer County, NY Before Watervliet came into play, West Troy was part of Troy which is Renss. Co. I believe they have some records.

Looking for info on Edward Philip Thomas, Sr. who lived in Watervliet or West Troy, NY. Died in late 1980s.

Married? 1st wife died
Married Martha ?


Anything you can pass on would be greatley appreciated.

Hi,
I am looking for information on Adeline R. Gilbert. She was born in West Troy NY by 1857, daughter of Maxime and Odile, both French Canadians. I am looking for her birth date and the maiden name of her mother.

Thank you very much in advance for any help you can give concerning this request.
