Vital records in New York State weren't recorded by the state until 1880. For early vital records you have to either find church records or hope that the event is recorded in the newspaper. For the time period of this page, the only newspapers published were the Rochester Telegraph and the Monroe Republican. The Telegraph was filmed many years ago and is available at the Rochester Public Library and a few other places around the country. The Republican only exists at the University of Rochester and for this page only records that were different than in the Telegraph were recorded. Note also that the film has been heavily scratched and some pages are out of focus so there are some illegible records.
The records on this page are extracted as published in the newspaper. Small monthly calendars are included to help when a newspaper record states that an event happened "last week Thursday."
You may wonder about birth records. Except for a few rare birth notices, birth records were not published until the mid twentieth century.
Two abbreviations that appear frequently in these old records are; inst. and ult. Their meanings are inst. = instant, an old word meaning this month and ult. = ultimo meaning last month.

Her funeral was attended on the 10th by a numerous train of mourners whose appearance, bespoke hearts full of grief. She had been a wife, and mother, for almost 40 years. To her consort, children and domesticks, her lass is irreparable - her chacteristics the brightest in her domestick circle - she was an afflectionate wife, a tender and devoted mother , kind and indulgent to her domesticks. Her care and anxiety, for the welfare of her family, were unremitted. Well may her family mourn, yet they ought not to mourn as those who have no hope. While engaged in the affairs of life, we frequently form erroneous opinions of the character of others; but when we approach the death-bed of a fellow mortal, that honest hear we need not be mistaken in. For the last twelve years Mrs. Ensworth had been a professed follower of the meek and lowly Jesus; and in her last sickness her Savior remembered her. Her suffering were indeed great, during her sickness, which continued nineteen days. But she evidently enjoyed that peace which the world cannot give nor take away and her end was manifestly the end of those who die in the lord. - Com. | 21 Sept. 1824 MARRIED - In Greece, on Tuesday morning, the 14th inst. by the Rev.
