Saratoga County, NY VanOstrand
Is there anyone around Saratoga County, NY that is searching VanOstrand? My husbands great grandfather Peter Van Ostrand was born June 3, 1810 Saratoga County, NY. Died January 8, 1895 Ithaca, NY. Hoping to find record of his parents names and when and why they migrated to Tompkins/Tioga County area. Hope to find out who his first wife was that bore him at least 2 sons Michael E. and Peter J. Know Peter J. was born June 3, 1835 in Tompkins County. According to Tioga County census, June 12, 1855 Peter the elder was married to a Catherine j. Nowlan from Broome County and they had lived in Tioga County only one year. Their oldest child together at that time was Adelaide b. 1848. Can any one help with information, or steer me to the right place, as NYS didn't record births in 1810, or some such thing.
Thanks Vicky
