Rensselaer County Biographies This page was last updated 15 Jul 2014 |
Many of the biographies presented here come from Nathaniel Bartlett Sylvester's History of Rensselaer County, New York, With Illustrations and Biographical Sketches of the Prominent Men and Pioneers (Philadelphia: Everts & Peck, 1880). Not all of the biographies in this book have been typed, however, so if you find on the list below the name of someone you're interested in but the name hasn't been linked, send an email to me, Debby Masterson, requesting a copy of the biography. I will either scan it and email it to you or I will type it and and let you know I've added it to the website.
