LOOKING FOR DESCENDANTS OF THE ORIGINAL SETTLERS
WHO WERE KNOWN TO BE LIVING OR OWNING LAND IN
GENESEE COUNTY, NY BY THE END OF THE YEAR 1802
The county of Genesee was formed by the New York state legislature in the
year 1802 and will be celebrating its Bicentennial in the year 2002. Sue
Concklin, Genesee County Historian assigned the task of find descendants of
the original settlers to the Genesee Area Genealogists. We are hoping that
those of you who subscribe to the RootsWeb Genesee County line will
recognize some of the following names on this list and contact any of the
following people with that information.
Information can be sent by e-mail or snail mail.
Send e-mail to <> or by regular mail to:
Wilfred Vasile at 17 Clay St., Leroy, NY 14482-1415 or to
Mary C. VanAlstyne at 5100 Clinton St. Rd., Batavia, NY 14020
We are hoping to have a great deal of information by Dec 30, 1999 which
will give us a year to put it together. There are two parts to this list.
The first list consists of approximately 100 names for which we have no
descendant information. The second list consists of those for whom we do
have some information, but would like more. Thanks in advance for any
assistance you may be able to offer.
