Hello, Leslie,
It has been 10 years since I last posted on the Sturges line, and I am rusty.
I have seen Amy Birdsall Sturges and Perry Sturges' graves in the Hobart, Delaware County, NY, cemetery. There is also a window to her memory in the Episcopal Church in Hobart, or at least there was 20+ years ago.
I have never conclusively found Amy's parents. I should try again now, given how many more records have been made available.
I am scratching my head over your descent from Perry via Henry. Are you sure there was no intervening generation? I have a Henry as son to Perry's son George. (I actually have an 1841 letter from George to Ebenezer with loads of family data. George's son Henry earned a bachelor's degree and moved to Mississippi to become a teacher, I think.) But I'm not aware of Ebenezer and George having a brother Henry. Obviously, I can learn much from you! Let's stay in touch. Kate
