Chris: you helped me last year with information. I wondered if you could do so again. I am
trying to locate a death certificate for my Great-Great Grandfather (John Myers born 1847 in
Fishkill) and my Great -Great Grandmother (Cornelia Birkins/Berkins born around 1850 also
in Fishkill). They both lived on Mill Street in Wappinger Falls at the time of their death.
Cornelia died between 1910 and 1920. John died between 1920 and 1930. Since they were
both born before 1881, Town of Fishkill said they had no records and I would have to find the
church which they attended. I do not know their religious denomination so finding the church
or their grave site is next to impossible. Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.
I know the last time we spoke their was a mix up in the price to charge. Please let me know
the correct amount and I will gladly mail it to you. My telephone is 352-728-6054 in Florida in
case you have any further questions. Thank you Virginia

Sounds confusing to me too.
There are two finds on your request. We are doing the certificates now. Our system is quite efficient
which makes the fee schedule that the State recommends a little unreasonable. Let's just assume that
we only searched the year that the events took place. Therefore, all you will need to send is $22.00 per
find, or $44.00 total. Make the $44.00 check or money order payable to "Town of Wappinger - Town
Clerk". Send that and the genealogy application to: "Town Clerk, 20 Middlebush Rd., Wappingers Falls,
NY 12590". I am attaching the application to this email. Feel free to call me if you have any other
questions.

When I go into Wappinger Falls Town Clerk forms, it says that the document requested
is unavailable and directs me to the New York State Vital Records. If I choose the
genealogy forms, it states that the fee is $22.00 for a one year search and $44.00 for a
4 to 10 year search. If I choose just death certificates, it says the fee is $30.00 plus an
additional fee of $15.00 for the re-file and handling of the film. I am confused about the
fee. The one page also says that I can order and pay by phone using a credit card. Is
this possible if I e-mail you the completed form? Virginia Stout

Joe,
There is an application for genealogy search on my department page of the Town Website. Print
that up and mail it. You can also print, complete, scan and email it to me if that is easier. The fee
schedule is on the back of the form. There is no charge if nothing is found.
I'll get someone searching based on this email, but I'll need that form before I can send anything
out. I'll let you know as soon as we finish the search in case you haven't sent the form so that
you don't waste your time. It should only take a few days or so on my end.

I suppose a check made out to Town Clerk - Town of Wappinger for $22 would be fine. You can send it to me
@ 20 Middlebush Road, Wappingers Falls, NY 12590. I checked the place of birth again and it doesn't look
anything like Plomesgate, Ipswich, Oxford or Suffolk. Just by appearance, it looks something along the lines of
"Ren dies Law" or "Ren dies haw", with spacing as I indicated. Technically, I am supposed to put what is in the
book, regardless of accuracy or, in this case, despite the fact that you have the information on hand. Since I am
unable to read it, I left it as "unknown". I hope the document is still of some use to you.

Thanks for that, how do want payment ? Obviously I work in pounds but whatever you need.
Alice's place of Birth was Rendlesham in Suffolk, It was and still is a small rural village near
Ipswich.She was one of ten children, they all seemed to have large families in those days. I've attached
the birth certificate for your information.

It does sound like the right certificate, Plomesgate is the official district name which covers Orford. The actual
village is Rendlesham I'm quite sure of that.
I'll sort out the cheque this week and forward it to you, thanks for all your help.

The 1877 birth that you requested is before our earliest record.
The 1919 birth, 1964 death and the 1961 death don't seem to have been filed with Wappinger. New
Hamburg is in the Town of Poughkeepsie. You may want to try a search there.
Chris
p.s. The place of birth for Alice is illegible in my record book. I put "unknown" on the certification.

I will have someone begin the search. I received all of the attachments to your e-mail.
Those are good enough to get things started. However, the form that I need for my files is
actually called "Application for Genealogy Services". When you get a chance, send that file
the same way you did the others. I will keep you posted on the progress.

Dear Mr. Masterson,
Thanks for that, I hope I've done everything right, there was a secti n on your web-
site which I couldn't access but I hope the attached are was is required. I've printed
the forms completed and scanned them so I hope they reach you OK.
I've attached two applications for births - Robert Graham and his daughter Alice
Mabel Graham and Robert's marriage to Alice Malster.
Just to add some credibility to the application I've also attached Alice Malster's birth
certificate from 1887 in Suffolk and a copy of the passenger list from the SS New
York which sailed from Southampton in October 1909, Alice Malster is recorded at
number 17.
I know the Graham's had more children but that research will have to wait a while. I
do hope you can help and look forward to hearing from you.

Dear Mr. Malster,
I can do a search for you for the Town of Wappinger. There is an application for
genealogy search on the Town Clerk Department page of the Town of Wappinger
website. Print that out, fill out the form and send it back to me so that I can get the
proper staff working on it for you. There will be a fee for found records, but no fee
if we don't find anything.
Sincerely,
Chris Masterson

Subject: Family History Research
Dear Mr. Masterson,
I have been given your name by Mr. Chris Colsey as being someone who
might be able to help with some family history research. I contacted him
after finding your town's web site on the internet. Let me apologise now if
I'm barking up the wrong tree but I think I'm heading in the right direction.
If you can help, this is the line of inquiry I'm following.
An ancestor of mine named Alice Malster was born in Rendlesham
Suffolk, England in 1887, she sailed to America on-board the SS New
York in October 1909 I have the passenger list which confirms this. She
married Robert Graham in New Hamburg USA on the 26th June 1910 and
died in 1961 in New York aged 77.
Robert was born in Wappinger about 1894 and died in 1961 aged
about 84 years. One of the children named Alice Mabel Graham was born
11th February 1919 in Wappinger and died in 1953 aged 34 years.
The questions are, do you have any recorded information about births,
deaths and marriages relating to these people and if so are copies
available ? I'm quite happy if there is a fee payable.
There are other members of the Graham family who lived and are still
living in America and these will form other research projects in the future, I
look forward to hearing from you.
Kind Regards.
