I am looking for information regarding my family line in New york. I have
been trying to get information regarding Thomas H. Palmer born 6 Oct. in
Exter NY Died 18, Aug 1888 Brooklyn NY. ...John H. Palmer Born 1842
Brooklyn NY .. Any Ideas on how I could find Census Records, Church Records
or any other information regarding these two men?

Thanks,
JPalmer
