I am researching my g-g-great grandparents, Sarah Bremen and Brockman L. Hopkins. They were married in Dutchess County, NY, in 1840. Brockman was born in East Kent England in 1815 and Sarah was born in Oneida County, NY, during the same year. If you have any information regarding their siblings, ancestors and/or descendants please eMail me at .

My Grandfather John Cooper Bremen was born on 13 February, 1854. His place of birth is unknown to us. Family story says that he stood on a street corner in New York City to watch Lincoln's Funeral Train. He lived on City Island in The Bronx, which is where my father was born. Perhaps he is kin to your Sarah?

Thanks, Gary! I have noted your lead and will keep it in my files as I continue my research. I have learned that my father got his information backwards and noted my g-g-great grandmother's birth place wrong. It is Dutchess County, not Oneida County where she was married. I am going to contact Vitalchek to see if I can locate a birth record or certificate! If you have any further information, you can contact me at my e-mail addess .
