Babcock and Ambrose Ferris
Oswego
County, NY
Last week, my husband and I went to the Palermo Methodist Church to research
my family. We copied down several marriages from the churches records with
the permission of the minister. I thought you might like to include them
on the Palermo site.
I am also including 2 deeds from the Oswego Clerks office for Palermo.
Please feel free to also add them to the site if you are interested.
Sincerely, Lee Freeman.
