Matilda Camp is in my family as well.
Peter Camp and Rebecca Smalley are her parents if we are talking about the
same Matilda; apparently, there are several. I do not know if this Matilda
was from Campville or not.

June,
I think we have E-mailed one another in the past so I'll say, It's nice
hearing from you again.
It just so happens that today I wrote to the Tioga County Historical Society
with several requests along with this same question. Who are Matilda Camp's
parents? She was born April 1, 1809 and lived and died in Campville, New
York. She died April 26,1885. and is buried in the Campville Cemetery. My
Matilda Married Thomas Cafferty and is my husband's Grandfather's, wife's,
Grandmother.....LOL I need to think about this a second.
Matilda Camp married Thomas Cafferty and they had a child Mary Cafferty. She
married Eddie Edwards and their daughter Dora Matilda Edwards married our
Grandpa, Thurlow Reid Kinney so there you have it.
I am looking for her parents because there is a Nathan CAMP Kinney in the
tree that I am in need of info. As soon as I get the birth and death
certificates that I just mailed away for, I will request Nathan Camp
Kinney's. He and Matilda MUST be related but I want to know HOW....I feel
like Sherlock Holmes and I am on a mission.
I am very excited about all of this genealogy, it has become my PASSION. I
have even begun to place our tree on line at
Rootsweb.com If you look up
Thurlow Reid Kinney, my tree is listed under krkdjk76 There are a total
of 7 at the WORLD CONNECT. This is so fun. At one time Thurlow was not
listed at all, now I see relatives of ancestors popping up from different
directions.
Our Kinney's hail from Owego, New York as well as Campville,Vestal, and all
of the surrounding areas. We are connected to the Camps, Cafferty's,
Edwards, Helmers, and various others.
Thank you for appreciating my mission and your enthusiasm in genealogy.
Family is the tie that binds. We are ALL CONNECTED one to the other.
With love I wish you a Merry Christmas and a VERY HAPPY NEW
YEAR,
Denise Kinney virgos123(a)aol.com
