I recently purchased an antique rifle probably made in the last quarter of the 19th
century. It appears to be hand made and stamped into the barrel is "J.E. GAGE
SODUS, N.Y." I would be interested in learning any information about this individual, whether he ever Patented his rifle design, if any other rifles exist, and if family remains in the Sodus area. Help would be appreciated.

I purchased an old clock in an antique store in Grand Ledge, MI which says "Carr's Jewelry", 811 Gallia. A google search led me to your page, item 98-11 "History of Carr's Jewelry," but I can't confirm whether I'm looking at the same store. I'm curious to know if my clock came from your area or if I should keep looking. Thank you!

I am looking for information about James and Mary E. Parshall(my great-grandfather) I am told he and his family lived in Rose,Wayne, N.Y. in1850. His parents were Reuben T. and Susan Parshall and I did find them on the 1850 census. By then James was married and should have been on that census also. They all later came to Michigan and settled in Jackson County. I would appreciate any help you can provide.

Am looking for information about Moses P & Caroline Fowler CONNER. They are listed in the 1870 Census for Wolcott, Wayne, NY. In the listing it shows a son Fowler & daughter Helen.

I also found another listing showing a Benjamin & Ann FOWLER. I believe that this is Caroline's parents. In the a Wolcott Research page it shows Benjamin & Moses working in a Steam Saw or Saw Mill.

I have not found Moses & Caroline after the 1870 Census. Any help would be appreciated

Thank you
