Peggy,
A cousin of mine forwarded this info to me
through his correspondence with a fellow named Rogers Finch who's e-mail address was inadvertently lost.He indicated that the Finch family of Rensselaer County came from Connecticut to NY in the early 1800's.John Finch (my father) is the son of John L. Finch who was the son of John L. Finch who was the son of John Finch.This John Finch appears in the Stephentown area without any other Finch family to connect him to and where our trail goes cold.My cousin Chris then was told by Rogers Finch that the family that moved to Rensselaer county in the late 1800's relocated to Wisconsin, but after relocating one of the children decided he did not like Wisconsin and moved back to Rensselaer county (greater Stephentown) to live with relatives from his mother's family (hence there was no Finch name apart from his name).This John Finch who relocated back to Rensselaer was the son of John Finch who was killed in Mexico City during the Mexican War circa 1846 and has clearly traced genealogy going back to the 1500's.My cousin's problem with Rogers Finch is that he was never able to prove that our John Finch was the same John Finch who vanishes from Roger's Finch genealogy.Both John Finches would have been born approximately the same year.Roger did offer to provide my cousin with all the information he had collected, but before he would share he wanted my cousin to prove that our John Finch and his John Finch were in deed the same person.I guess this Roger Finch held the key to us going back further and finding out more about our genealogy and we lost contact.This is all we have so far.
I hope you can come up with something
