PAOlONI ROBERT L. VAlDATI August 18, 2005 Kathleen A. Kern 7 Evergreen Avenue New Hyde Park, New York 11040 Dear Ms. Kern: Per your telephone call yesterday, I have found no death record for William Scofield or Mary Scofield. I found a death record for Mary A. Scofield (see attached) but she was married to Remsen D. Scofield so this is not the "Mary" you were seeking. Also found was a death record for Mary Lela Scofield; however, she was married to Edward R. Scofield. (See attached) I found a "William" (highlighted on form) listed as father on two deaths but his wife in both instances was NOT Mary. If you want anything else checked out, please either call or send me a letter. Sorry I could not be of help with these two names.

I also found the death certificates for Hiram Chase who died May 1, 1933 and Harriet Amelia Chase who died July 28, 1934. Copies are enclosed. Harriet was born in East Fishkill, New York on May 19, 1862. Hiram was born in Pine Plains, New York on October 30, 1856. (Birth dates are listed on their death records). However, I also found a record of their marriage on October 16, 1912. The marriage record states that Harriet was born in Wappingers Falls. I also believe the marriage record has their wrong ages listed. They were both buried in the Wappingers Falls Cemetery, Route 9D, Wappingers Falls, NY. Phone: 845-297-3480. If you would like actual transcripts typed on any of these records enclosed, please let me know. It would be $10.00 per transcript. Sincerely, /~ ~.

I have forwarded your lists of genealogy to the Town of Poughkeepsie and the Town of Fishkill. It is possible that they may have the records you are requesting. She is checking with the Town of Poughkeepsie historian as to the location of Stoneco from the 1800' s. I have also left a message with our Town Historian to see if she can give us any further information on where "Stoneco" was actually located back then. Our former Town Clerk believes it was near what is now called "Trap Rock" which would be in the area of Town of Poughkeepsie. I'm sorry for the long delay but in the old books there are no index pages and every name on every page must be searched individually. I did a very thorough search of our records however. When I hear from either the other towns or the historians, I will contact you. Sincerely, cJ~~ Sandra Kosakowski Hi Sandy, I can't tell you how pleased I was to receive your message and genealogy trace today. Thank you so much for taking the time to check on any other "Shaws" in the Village ofWappingers Falls. You are the best! I am so impressed. After I left the town hall I went exploring in the Village, viewed the beautiful Falls and spoke with some local folks who were very helpful. I then went to LaGrange, following the notation in the genealogy book you showed us but their records didn't go back as far as I needed. However, I did eventually find more "Shaws" in the area, again in Titusville. One is definitely my Great Grandfather 'Walter Shaw', the wool spinner born on the Titusville Rd. The other is my Great Great Grandfather 'Theron Shaw' born in 1828 in Titusville and worked as an 'Examiner' in the Wool Mill. At this point my trail seems to have gone cold so maybe I'll have to be a little more creative in my search. But it is a worthy search, puzzling sometimes but fun nonetheless. 'Imagine three generations of'Shaws' in the greater Wappingers area. I'm betting that there are more.

I will check the early records to see if I can find anything for Percy Charles Whitman and Charles Edward Whitman.

I haven't finished the search as it takes a long time to go through each & every name because they were not indexed in the book. Back then, I guess they didn't see the need to index but it would make the search go much faster. I'm sending this information so that you will see "I'm working on it".

VALDATI August 30, 2005 Ms. Helen Ransky 240 South Lane West Windsor, NJ 08550 Dear Ms. Ransky: Enclosed are transcripts of four birth records and one death record that you requested. We became extremely busy in the office as hunting licenses went on sale August 15th and I could not type the transcripts right away. I will try to explain the differences in the Wappinger town name. There is a "Town of Wappinger" and a "Village ofWappingers Falls". Our office is located in the town portion; thereby calling us the Town of Wappinger as you noticed on our letterhead. Our Post Office is actually located in the village portion and therefore all mail for town and village MUST be addressed as "Wappingers Falls, New York" (following the actual location of the post office). (There is NO Wappinger Falls). Your ancestors would have either lived in the Town of Wappinger (District #1368) or the Village ofWappingers Falls (District #1324). We cover both districts with our records. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me. Sincere~ Sandra Kosakowski Deputy Registrar of Vital Statistics i ~ .. July 7, 2005 Ms. Gloria J. Morse, Town Clerk 20 Middlebush Road Wappingers Falls, NY 12590 Dear Ms. Morse, I am researching an ancestor, John VanVoorhis (b. 1860), who married Martha Purdy (b. May 1861). I know that your records only start in 1882, but I was hoping that you had one of their children's or grandchildren's records on file to try to help me find some identifying information about these two persons. John and Martha's children were John Edward VanVoorhis (b. Oct. 1, 1879 - probably too early for your records) who married Grace Adelia Horton (b. Aug. 12, 1876) and Alsada May VanVoorhis (b. Feb 1882) who married Zachariah V. Hasbrook (b. Oct 1870). John Edward and Grace Adelia's children were George (b. 1901-d. 1914), Earl Horton (b. 1906-d. 1999) and Grace Alsada (b. Jan 26, 1909- d. May 12, 1984). Alsada May and Zachariah's children were Hazel M. (b. ca 1902), Martha (b. ca 1912) and Marjorie (b. ca 1917). If any of these names appear in your records, will you please let me know so that I can order their genealogy form(s). Also, can you direct me to the correct source(s) in Wappingers Falls that might have the earlier records (baptisms, marriages, etc)? I believe that this family belonged to the early Dutch Reformed Church. Is there still such a church in Wappingers Falls? Thank you for your help. /Jzh ~7 Helen Ransky mutha32@comcast.net 240 South Lane West Windsor, NJ 08550 RECEIVED JUL 1 2 2005 TOWN CLERK TOWN OF WAPPINGER TOWN CLERK CHRIS MAS"TERSON c"'C<._~ /Y.O~ ~"~P~I '"" /~.~~ifIii" ~'\t~.'
