  • - Volume 23. Wills, Guardianships and Probates, 1829-1879
    af Tina Didreckson, Elizabeth J Hinds, Harold E & mfl.
    324,95 kr.

    This volume is the twenty-second in a series devoted to presenting a transcription of the surviving serial manuscript records for the town of Wilmington, Essex County, New York, in the High Peaks region of the Adirondack Mountains. The Clerk's Office, at the Essex County, New York Courthouse, houses wills, guardianships, and dowers in bound volumes, and also probate loose papers, all before 1947. Dower papers are quite rare, occurring in only two cases. The authors have abstracted wills and guardianships; but for dowers and probate packets they have fully transcribed all surviving documents. The transcripts retain all words and names exactly as contained in the documents. Despite the fact that only a few people had an estate in probate; most, if not all, male members of the Wilmington community do appear somewhere in the documents. Not only are they mentioned as kin and heirs-at-law; but they also appear as creditors, debtors, witnesses, Justices of the Peace, buyers of goods and property at estate sales, etc. Who dug an ancestor's grave? Who carved his/her monument? The final settlement of accounts by the estate's administrator might contain this information. If your ancestors owed debts, you might find the promissory note or the original doctor's or store's ledgers included in the file. Inventory taken of the estate will provide a fascinating glimpse into your ancestor's material culture. Finally, since the authors have transcribed all surviving documents in a probate packet, a window is provided into the historical process of probate. A full name index adds to the value of this work.

    This volume is the twelfth in a series devoted to presenting a transcription of the surviving serial manuscript records for the town of Wilmington, Essex County, New York, in the High Peaks region of the Adirondack Mountains. Starting in 1886, and continuing in the years covered in this volume, both the lot numbers and tract (complete with descriptive comments) are provided for taxable residents. The following information may also be recorded: number of acres, value of estate, value of personal property, total valuation, amount of tax, dog tax, whether the tax is paid, returned resident highway tax, and returned resident school tax. For lands of non-residents there is considerable information provided, but the owner's name is omitted. For some years (excluding 1892-4 and 1896), an end-of-year Town Supervisor's report (sometimes a newspaper clipping) is appended. It contains valuable information, as all town offices and officers are listed. In some cases the year-end report includes not just officers and amounts paid them, but others who were paid by the Town for services provided. Occasionally, comments are added which could prove useful or add a bit of "color" to your family portrait. The tax records have been transcribed as presented. All names have been reproduced as spelled in the original. A full name index adds to the value of this work.

  • - Volume 1, Town Ledger, 1821-1865 (Cattle Earmarks 1820s-1884)

    This volume is the first in a series devoted to presenting a transcription of the surviving serial manuscript records for the town of Wilmington, Essex County, New York, in the High Peaks region of the Adirondack Mountains. The first ledger book for the Town of Wilmington, "lost" for many years, covers the period from the founding of the town in 1821, until 1865 (except for cattle earmarks which are covered until 1884), and contains a record of the Town of Wilmington minutes, plus much more. The minutes of annual and special town meetings are included. Entries make special note of the persons elected or appointed to various offices: e.g., Town Clerk, Town Supervisor, Assessors, Commissioners of Highways, Overseers of Highways, Path Masters, Justices of the Peace, Overseers of the Poor, Tax Collectors, Election Inspectors, Sextons, Poor Masters, Scalers of Weights and Measures, and Superintendents of Schools. Votes are recorded for provisions for the poor and schools. Surveys of new roads, and occasionally new plats, are included. Highway taxes, in the form of corvee labor or days of labor owed by individuals, are recorded for every year. Earmarks for cattle are registered and illustrated. The original ledger is not consistently chronological and is often illegible; however, the authors have attempted to transcribe the entries as presented. Names have been faithfully transcribed, and it is not unusual to find the same name spelled several different ways. A full name index adds to the value of this work.

    Never underestimate the value of gossip! Emma D. Hinds, under the pen name of "Rupert," was the gossip columnist and vital records recorder for the Essex County Republican during the period covered. For researchers interested in a family's web of kith and kin, gossip columns can be an indispensable resource, adding regional, cultural, and socio-economic aspects. Numerous pieces of social history linked to individuals or families are recorded here that may not have been noted in print elsewhere. Births, marriages, and deaths are of particular value to genealogists as the period of 1877-1881 falls before Wilmington's civil vital records begin. These tidbits, clipped from a regional paper that otherwise reported little on Wilmington, provide insights into life in a town which had no newspaper. The appointment of school teachers, local schools' closing exercises, church-related meetings, sermons, the coming and going of visitors, and social occasions such as the Sabbath school picnics were all reported along with a sprinkling of disease, illness, crimes, fire, prostitution, and "demon" drink.Entries are sub-divided into personals and subjects, and then each section is further sub-divided into alphabetical listings and chronological entries. The Alphabetical Order by Person section includes the full name, date, subject, and scrapbook page number. The Listing by Event section lists the event, date, description, and page number.

    This volume is the sixth in a series devoted to presenting a transcription of the surviving serial manuscript records for the town of Wilmington, Essex County, New York, in the High Peaks region of the Adirondack Mountains. The enclosed transcriptions are for all existing cemeteries in the town of Wilmington, 1804-2003. The information is drawn from readings of cemetery markers, as well as from records on file at the town of Wilmington's Clerk's office, and from previous readings, especially those undertaken in 1982 and 1984. In a few cases, monuments have been placed in a cemetery for those still living. For example, a monument for Maurice and Marjorie Morris Fletcher exists in Hazelton Cemetery, with birth dates, but no death dates, since as of 2003 both were still very much alive. In some cases, markers known to have existed have disappeared. Where that is the case, there is an entry noting this, e.g., Harry MacDonald, "cannot locate stone." By capturing all extant serial records for Wilmington, the genealogist and family historian with Wilmington ancestors can reconstruct a fuller portrait of their ancestors. Entries typically contain (as available): the full name of the deceased, date of birth, age at time of death, date of death, and comments. The "Comments" field may contain the name of a spouse, parent or other relative; and/or other biographical data. A fullname index adds to the value of this work.
