However, you prob don't have anything on them? Hi Harriette, All I know is that "Lyman" IS a Hoisington Family name. Caira Hoisington and James Madison Clough had a son, Lyman Judson Clough, who is my maternal g-grandfather. Caira also had a brother named Lyman, b about 1822. I have a 1994 e-mail in my notes (from Alice Eichholz of Roots-L) that says; "There are other vitals for Lyman HOISINGTONS children in Rochester town records. They indicate that Lyman was married to Susan Dustin and was born in Attica, NY. Sayles had a brother Aaron, as well as a son and he was also in Rochester. Some of Lyman's children were born in woodstock....You could also check Woodstock on the family of what appears to be Caira's brother Lyman." I don't know if this is of any help to your researcher or not, but thought I'd pass it along just in case. Some of what Alice found for me was from the 1850 census, so that might be a place for her to begin, in Rochester, Woodstock and Windsor.

As best I can determine, they were living in Genesse County, New York in 1822. So I am not sure of the source for her information.

Hi Daniel, I'm also planning to go to Windsor/Woodstock next week:)) Probably I'll be in the area on the 16th, 17th, and 18th. Perhaps we'll cross paths. I've been meaning to post that here to the list, with a request for anyone who would like me to find anything specific. If list members will send me an e-mail before next week, I'll do my best to find what you need. I think your sister will love Woodstock. I drove through there on my last trip and it's a beautiful little town.:) I also plan to visit the various cemetaries, and will take lots of photos to "share" with you all. I'll probably do some gravestone "rubbings" too, so if anyone is interested in anything specific, let me know and I'll make sure I get one for you.

Thought I'd just check in. In my spare time, I've been slugging away at inputting Harry's data. Up to family 497. However, since Harry stowed away children's and grandchildren's marriages under the same number and PAF doesn't, I'm up to family 1605 and almost 5000 names. So, if you've got a mystery Hoisington you're looking for, give me a holler. Also in my spare time, I've made a couple of minor research trips on my other lines. Went to talk to some Hart cousins, who produced a photograph of my ggg-grandparents (Perkins) who I had finally traced down in the census only a couple of weeks ago. Also trying to detangle Combs cousins. (Saw your Combs posting, Birdie. I'll write you separately about that.) Rob: Any new addition to the list yet?

I thought it might be helpful if all of us posted a list of names of Hoisington descendants (don't have to be named Hoisington) we are looking for at the present. Who knows, someone on the list might already have them! I'll start it off first, to get the ball rolling. I'm looking for a Samuel Hoisington in IA, probably around Yankton. Could be a middle name. Eventually went to OR, Jackson Co., I think. Connected to a family named HAMAR. ====================================================================================== From: Harriette Jensen Subject: Re: Linscott Family Picnic Date: Thu, 31 Jul 1997 23:39:02 -0700 (PDT) Hi, all. Here's the latest installment from Jeff Linscott. I have written back asking him for his sources as there are some conflicts with the information that I have from Harry Hoisington's book. If any of you have information on the people listed below (conflicting, confirming or otherwise), please post it to the list.
