New York State online Newspapers-private project?
« on: Friday 22 May 09 18:46 BST (UK) »
Located this site a few days ago when I was looking for some JUFFS from Bedfordshire in Wayne County, New York State.
It seems to be a ongoing private project that covers a few county's in New York State, and I did find information on a few of the JUFFS I was looking for.

Ralph - Ireland to Scotland to Queensland, Australia
Jillett - Robert, Transported Convict from Surrey

Thank you bikermickau, for that link.

I found umm 124 newspaper articles with my GG grandfather's full name and his deafness mentioned.  The years? 1861, 1862 and 1863. 

Many thanks.
