Craig,
I might well be interested at least in some of your responsibilites. I am
retired ... about 15 years now and am pretty deep into researching my own
family. been at it eight years am back to the 17th century.
I have no idea what it requires to be a list administrator, but do have over
forty years in the hardware end of the computer world.
I await your response,
Dick Clark ... fellow searcher

Hi Roz,yes sorry susan was born in 1832! Its a shame when the birth place
is
just put down as a county.I've got a thomas lamb who is listed as
nottingham
and another one who is listed as suffolk.Most of the london family have
bethnal green,mile end etc and not just london.I'm going to FRC at
islington
monday to check some census info.I,m nearly ready for the parish records
now,but I still have some loose ends first,ie people not where they should
be! Cant think of another som apart from somerset.Only other way is to
order
the birth cert,but it can get costly!

Still searching for the ancestry of Mary Clark (1641-1722 CT) who
married William Chatterton. She was the daughter of James Clark who had
7 children between 1640 and 1651 and then married Ann, widow of John
Wakefield. Who was Mary's mother and who were James Clark's parents?
Thank you.

Hello everyone,I am researching a Clark family that lived in Bethnal Green
area of East London,uk in the 1800's. So far I have traced back to a
William Clark who married a Mary Hatfield at shoreditch in 1827.They had 5
children: Susan b 1841,Henry b 1839,George b 1843 and james b 1846 and
finally a sarah b 1841,who was my gr grandmother.
Sarah married a William Lewis in 1859 and they had 7 children,most of them
born in Bethnal Green or Mile End,london.
If anyone has a possible connection I'd be delighted to hear from you.

Hi Joe,
I haven't asked you in a long time, so have you added any Eleanors to your
list? I've found out that my Eleanor Clark Martin, (born in 1801, married
John Martin and lived in Northumberland, Saratoga co., NY,) was born in Ft
Ann, NY (Washington co.) and her parents MAY have been Stephen and Deborah
Clark, who are recorded there about that time, and also, they named a son
ARBA, an unusual name, and so did she. Also the names, Arba, Stephen Jr,
John and Hiram appear on gravestones in the same small Brownsville cemetery
where she is buried she and may be her brothers.

"Hello again Cousins!"
I am now looking at a little over four months until I am able to
retire, and am looking forward to being able to hit the road in
search of family. I am quite confident that my planned activities
will likely necessitate my turning the administration of the several
Rootweb mail lists that I presently administer, over to someone
else. Am sincerely wondering if one of you might seriously wish
to take on the new responsibility of being the List Administrator
for these, the CLARKE Family Mail List, the CLARK Family Mail
List, and the CLARKE and CLARK GenConnect Surname Boards?
Should you be so inclined, please do apprise me of your willingness
to do so. As I am currently the List Administrator for some twenty-
four Rootsweb Mail Lists, and Board Administrator for a goodly
number of corresponding GenConnect Surname Boards, I possibly
may receive several messages from a number of you, all at about the
same time, so please be patient should I not be able to get back with
you in a timely manner, as I am still gainfully employed, but not for
very much longer! <G> In any case, I am hoping to have found new
List Administrators for these no later than 1 June 2000, at the latest.
Thank you so very much for your patience, cooperation, and
participation in the CLARK and CLARK Family Mail Lists!

What you are seeking is a will of the wisp type of thing.
One thing I learned is there were no real set patterns.
There were several trails across New York
But, the migration also ran North and South as well. Not real far North or
South, just enough to suddenly put the migration on a different track.
There were several factors that caused such a mixing. One was the Erie
Canal. It was a source of work as well as transport.
The settling of cities was a good reason for stopping.
Many old foot trails became modern highways. New York 17 is one of them.
Railroads became a factor as they were built and people found work there.
Much of the migration did seem to center around Erie County for the jumping
off point to the West.
Travel along Lake Erie was by boat and wagon. It is rather level until you
get to Cleveland.
There is a lot of validity in two concepts. One generation stopped and the
next moved on. Also, One generation stopped then some of the extended family
from 'back home' moved further and the next generation sort of leap frogged
over them and went further - and so on. In my family I have found both
patterns.
I don't know of a site that traces these patterns. I think it's because
there is no real way to nail it down because of the zig zag pattern many
families used to follow their trek West. It was not unusual for a family in
Naples, Ontario, NY to fan out to Syracuse, Rochester, Sayre PA, and
Pittsburg. To further complicate things, at the same time parts of families
that had already gone to Ohio and Illinois moved back. It's like trying to
nail Jell-o to a tree in July.

Married James Newton in Orange County, NC. in 1796. Their son George Newton
born in 1800 was born in Tennessee and James Newton died in Tennessee. Any
one have any information on the parents or siblings of Sarah Clark Newton?
Does anyone know of a good site that covers the common migration trails
our ancestors used? I tried Cyndi Howell, figuring she was the queen
resource but came up empty.
For example, I just read the most of the settling of western NY came
after the War of 1812 when returning soldiers raved about the good
undeveloped land they'd seen. Main immigrants seemed to be from CT and
MA.
My relatives got there earlier. How might they have moved? All in one
generation? From CT of Albany in one generation? Further west in the
next?
The same applies to their move from NY to IN. Are they most likely to
have taken the boat from Buffalo to Toledo and gone cross country from
there?
And where did they go after 1860? I know some moved to WI, others went
straight west to IA, KS, MO. But what were the routes?
I figure daughters who suddenly drop out of the census may have married
during one of the stops, say in Ohio. Sons, too, may have seen a
business opportunity and left the convoy. If I knew my trails better, I
could make more intelligent guesses as to where my ancestors picked up
their spouses.
I would think others would have the same problem since many of our
families moved a lot between the Revolution and the end of the Civil
War.
