ADAMS
Seeking info ref my ggGrandfather Norman ADAMS (B. 1799, Oak Hill, NY) son of Thomas ADAMS ( b. 1766). Adams Gen shows Norman was Rector of St Matthews Episcopal Church in Unadilla, NY, and was married to Caroline FRISBEE. Our family history shows Norman married Rebecca WRIGHT. Cemetery records confirm the FRISBEE marriage, I suppose two marriages are a possibility. I would apreciate any info on these folks or their relatives. Thanks.

AINSWORTH
My four greats-grandfather, Daniel AINSWORTH, died in 1810 in Cherry Valley, Otsego County, New York, according to the Ainsworth Family in North America Genealogy by Parker (1894). I am looking for evidence of his death such as a record of some sort. So far I have come up blank. In particular I am looking for a date when he moved from Columbia County (last record 1791)to Otsego County. His youngest son, Philip AINSWORTH, married Mary CRONKHITE from Danube,Herkimer County, New York, probably about 1800. It is likely that he lived in Cherry Valley around this time. Daniel AINSWORTH's wife was Elizabeth CORBIN. I am also looking for evidence of her death. Philip's wife, Mary CRONKHITE, may have also died in Otsego County. Any help would be appreciated.
