I am continuing the work of my mother Helen in researching the Feathers-Burdick-Peckham roots. My concentration is on Rensselaer County, NY origins.We are direct descendants through her side of the Archbishop of Canterbury 1279 John Peckham;Robert Burdick- Ruth Hubbard of the Seventh Day Baptist heritage; the Feathers- Jacobi line of German Palatine heritage from Columbia/Dutchess County; Dunhams from Plymouth Colony @1630;Westervelts[Lubbertsen] from Holland @1662,John Cutler from England @1637. My roots also include Bennet-Ferguson from Erie PA,Benson, lines. From Switzerland Yunck[Junck] and Bertschmann.
