Besig Family in New York
Thank you for letting us start a Besig family genealogy forum. It is an unusual name in nearly all of the genealogy sites. Our Besig family started in Switzerland. The line I am searching is Xavier Besig and wife Marie G. They settled in Oneida County New York. We believe that he came to the USA around 1857.Xavier had 7 children.Michael, Antoine, Xavier, Francis, Frances (twins),Joseph and Casper.Xavier died 6/2/1897 in Lairdsville,New York and is buried in St Joseph's cemetery in New York Mills, New York. We would like to find out more about Marie G and the families of Xavier's children. My GGrandfather was Michael. We would like to add info from all of the family and be able to trace the family in Switzerland.
