Genealogy
We have spent time going through our various scrapbooks, books of obituaries and special events of the people who lived in and around Lyn.
From this we have managed to compile lists of names of the various people in these books and placed them in one central location in our upstairs Mary Hudson Room.
The books contain the names and the location of where the information can be found within the museum’s scrapbooks.
For anyone doing research into their family tree, we might have information that may be of use to you.
The binders are available for research purposes during our normal Sunday hours.

my great great grandmother and grandfather were married in Greenbush in 29 July 1853. As of yet I have found no evidence. There names are John Schlarbaum and Louisa Seegmiller. Do you have any listings of marriages in your records or could you direct me towards the right people to ask and or find records. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,

I am researching my Blanchard ancestors. I have a copy of Greenbush, Ontario history. My second great grandfather, Milton David Blanchard, was born in Millbrook in 1827. He married his wife, Garfelia Waite, in Greenbush on 27 Feb 1851. They moved to Iowa prior to 1860. There are a number of Blanchards in the Greenbush and Millbrook area in the 1800s and I believe he is related to them but I have not been able to establish a connection to who his parents were. Could you direct me towards the right people to ask and or find records. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Rod Hanley
