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, there were these newspapers published in Rochester:
Note that some of the films have been 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.

Jan. 8, 1830 MURDER IN LE ROY The Le Roy Gazette of Jan. 7, gives the following account of tbe murder committed in that town on the 2d inst. On Saturday evening last, between 6 and 7 o'clock, four persons named Elijah Gray, (senior) James Gray, Ehsha Gray, and Moses Herrick, entered the public house, for no good intentions it appeared in evidence, of Mr. Samuel Davis, situated about a mile east of the village; and that too, after the first named had been warned not to enter, and once forcibly put out of the house. Mr. Davis called some disinterested persons present to assist in forcing the disturbers out when a general scuffle ensued; and while Mr. D. and another person were in the act of putting out James Gray. Mr. D. received a deep wound in is abdomen, supposed to have been inflictcd by a common jack-knife. The above four first named persons were immediately arraigned—James Gray was committed to jail, to await trial on assault and battery with intent to kill and the other three gave bail for their appearance before the court on a charge of riot and assault and battery. Mr. Davis died of the wound on the next morning about 11 o'clock. A Coroner's jury was convened at the hcuse of the deccased, on Sunday evening, which returned a verdict of wilful murder committed by James Gray, and that Elijah Gray, (senior,) was feloniously present engaged in a riot and fray, abetting thereto. The latter, was then also committed to tbe county jail for trial. An enmity had existed with the Grays concerned, against Mr. Davis, and at this time they were returning home from this village, and that enmity was undoubtedly heightened and goaded by the maddening influence of liquor. The senior Gray is quite an old man, and has a wife and numerous children in this vicinity, to whom this event must be truly heart-renderinq. Tbe other, two of that name, engaged in tbe affry, are his sons. Mr. Davis was 56 years of age—he was one of the oldest settlers of our town, and was wealthy. He has left a wife and numerous family to deplore the untimely loss of their head, by one of the most deplorable circumstances that has ever occurred in this town.

Jan. 12, 1830 ANOTHER MURDER. The Bath (Steuben) Advocate relates a shocking event which occurred in Dansville, in that county. Some trifling dispute occuring between one Willard and an old man named Smith, the former beat the latter to death. He then seized an axe, and deliberately chopped the old man's head off, cutting through the chin, so as to leave part of the jaw bone attached to the body. He then tore open from his vest and shirt, and split him entirely open from his breast down, in which situation he left him, and started in pursuit of Mrs. Markham, who had crawled through a window and fled. She escaped, however, and rallied some neighbors, who persued and caught the murderer; he is now lodged in the jail of that county. |

RED JACKET—GONE! The veteran warrior and orator of the Seneca tribe—Sa-gu-yu-wha-hah, better known by the appellation of Red Jacket—is no more.—He expired in the Indian village near Buffalo, on the 20th inst. His age was eighty years. Few have witnessed greater revolutions than this celebrated chief. His people have dwindled like their native forests before the march of civilization, till scarcely a foothold is left them on the soil of their sires! His sagacity, his oratory, his valor, gave him for half a century pre-eminence in his tribe. He was a noble specimen of the aboriginal race—whose wrongs, whose degeneracy, were the mingled themes of his indignation and grief. |

Jan. 26, 1830 FUNERAL OF RED JACKET The death of this celebrated Chief was mentioned last week. Of his funeral, we quote from the Buffalo Republican: "On Thursday, the 21st January, the funeral of RED JACKET took place at the first Indian Village. It was attended by most of the Pagan and Christian parties of his tribe, and some of tbe inhabitants of Buffalo, who were led there by curiosity to witrress the last of this great man. His body was removed from his cabin into the Mission House, where religious serviccs were preformed. The whole assembly seemed awed by presence of the dead before them, and thcir minds totally engrossed in contemplating the melancholy subject that had had called them together. No spectator could view the scene, without being touched by the common feeling of sorrow that pervaded the little group of mourners who had there collected to pour over the unconscious remains of their chief the last humble tribute of devotion, and the warm, an unrepressed feelings of their hearts had often been melted—their turbulent spirits soothed, or thcir valor roused. Some of the remaining Chiefs, adhernts to the old customs, addressed their, people, in their own language. They recounted over the exploits of their Chief, with their eyes fixed upon the floor; and when they closed, some strings of wampum were handed to another, who followed in the same manner. From the fixed attention and tbe occasional bursts of feeling of the audience, it was plain that the orators were dwelling upon scenes dear to many, and touching the hearts of their hearers in their unextinguiahed strains of native eloquence. This part of the ceremony was conducted by the Pagans, who seemed indifferent to all the religious services which followed. It was said of Cato, by the Historian, that he was the last of the Romans—over Red Jacket's grave, posterity will pronounce a similar sentence—his public life is connected with some of the most interesting periods of our Revolution; and history will not disdain to record in its annals, the glorious part of the Indian Orator acted. He has been of late years the most distinguished for his unyielding resistance to every advance of civilization, and the tenacity with which he clung to all the old usages of his people. All the efforts of interested whites and corrupted Indians to persuade the tribe to dispose o£ their lands and emigrate to some distant region, have been always foiled by his eloquence in their councils. He foresaw, in the consequences of the measure, the final extinction of his race; and no proffered bribe could seduce his virtue and silence his frequent pathetic appeals to the people, He showed in this, as in every otber public act of his life, a devotion to his race, which would have done homor to patriots of any country or age. No more can such bold and devoyed spirits spring from that unhappy degenerate race. The far spreading forests in which the genius of the Indian was once nursed—the combats in which his courage was formed; and the wild, unrestrained liberty of nature, from which his mind received its lofty tone and sublime character, have diminisbed and receded before the march of western civilization. The Indian warrior, whose noble daring and proud spirit has long made him the hero of the romance and the poem, has sickened and pined under the surrounding influence of the whites. The whole race is fast passing into oblivion; and it wants no prophetic eye to foretel the time when nothing of this once numerous people shall be left, but their terrible name, to tell that they once had been. |
Jan. 28, 1830 TEMPERANCE. The Ontario Mesenger, states that an inquest was held on the 23d, in Farmington, on the body John Johnson, an inhabitant of that town—verdict, death by freeezing.

From the Buffalo Journal Indian Statistics.—A census of the Indians upon the Buffalo, Cattaraugus, and Allegany Reservations, has just been completed by order of the Secretary of War; and the person employed has furnished the editor of the Buffalo Journal with the following particulars: Upon the Buffalo Reservation, a territory embrassing 49,920 acres, there are, of the Seneca Tribe of Indians, . . . 693 Onondaga, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 94 Cayuga, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 94 Tuscarora, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 Total, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 885 There are upon the reservation, 2,783 acres of land under improvement, and the occupants were found to possess 1,027 head of cattle and horses. Upon Cattaraugus Reservation, a tract of 21,760 acres were found, of the Seneca Tribe, . . . . . . . 402 Delaware, . . . . . . . . . . . 74 Cayuga, . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 Total, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 501 with 839 acres of improved land, and 473 cattle and horses. Upon the Allegany Reservation, embrassing 30,469 acres, reside, of the Seneca Tribe, . . . . . 563 Onondaga, . . . . . . . . 79 Total, . . . . . . . . . . . 642 with 69 acres of land under improvement, and 46 cattle and horses. Recapitulation.—Total number of acres in the three reservations, . . . 102.149 Number of Indians upon, . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,028 Number of acres of improved lands, . . . . . . 4,814 Number of horses and cattle, . . . . . . . . . . . . 2,087 There is an English School taught on each Reservation, (upon the Buffalo and Cattaraugus tracts, in connexion with missionary establishments) in which the number of pupils are as follows: Seneca mission school, Buffalo Res., . . . . . . . . . . . 43 Cattaraugus mission school, Cattaraugus Res., . . . 40 Allegany Res., teacher a half breed, . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 By a comparison of the present number with that (1.734) found upon the same tracts by the census three years since, it appears there has beeen an increase, in that time, of 204; but we are told is attributable to other than ordinary causes. There have been considerable emigrations from other tracts of Indian lands to these; and in a number of instances individuals, and in more than one whole families were now, at the request of the Chiefs embrased by the enumeration, who, at the last census, were esteemed rather as belonging to the white population, and were not then included. Deduct those added by these combined operations and it will be found that there is an actual decrease of numbers among these miserable remnants of a once powerful Indian confederacy; and of the natural augmentation by which the ravages of death are in some degree made good, few indeed are literally "children of the forest," the blood of the European being profusely mingled with that of the Aboriginal race in a large proportion of the rising generation. |

March 12, 1830 DIED, In the village of Clarkson, on the 4th inst. aged 43, of pulmonary consumption after a long and distressing confinement, which she bore with christian patience. Widow SALLY ROWELL, consort of the late Doct. Nathaniel Rowell, and daughter of Deacon Samuel Hopkins, of Long Island. In the death of this truly pious, and devoted follower of Christ, the children and relatives of the deceased are called to mourning and the community deeply to lament her loss—but they mourn not without consolation, for she has left in lasting rememberance one more example of Christian faith and patience. To a friend who sat beside her when in the agony of death she observed with a smile. "all that is required are patience and fortitude," and in a few minutes her spirit was borne, we trust, "to [illegible] the wicked cease from troubling and the [illegible] are at rest." [Communicated. In Richmond, Ont. co. on the 15th Feb. last, Mr. Hawley Merwin in the 31st year of his age. He suffered much from the disease of which he died, for a period of more than [illegible] years—bore his pain with the resignation and fortitude becoming a christian—possessing a [illegible] faith in the Redeemer, and feeling a deep interest for his cause, he died in the enjoyment that hope, which gives a foretaste of heaven. In Canandaigua last Sunday evening, suddenly, Mr. THADEUS CHAPIN, in the 69th year of his age, on of the first settlers of the town. |

We have received the following note from the Deputy Collector of the Port of Genesee: Charlotte, 17th March. The body of a man has been discovered in the River, which is supposed to be that of Sam Patch. Unequivocal marks lead to this conclusion. The black handerkerchief around the waist, and other known marks, sufficiently indicate the identity of the body. I have sent for the coroner. G. H. HOLDEN |
March 19, 1830 SAM PATCH FOUND. The corpse found at the mouth of the Genesee has been identified as that of the ill-fated jumper. The inquest held yesterday decided that it was the body of Sam Patch. We learn that none of the bones are broken—that the face is not so greatly injured as to prevent recognition—and that the cut on the forehead is only one found about the body. This is more surprising, as, in the seven miles between the Falls in this place (where Patch lost his life) and the mouth of the River, ther are several falls, (those at Carthage being 104 feet) besides dams, &c., at which it might be supposed, the corpse would have received contusions, if it were not dashed to pieces. The hair was nearly all off; but the pantaloons in which Patch jumped, together with the handkerchief which he tied around him, were found on the body. It was interred near the place where it was found. |

page 48 For the Observer OBITUARY. There is no kind of writing into which more exaegeration and extravagance have been admitted than obituary and biographical sketches. So much is this the fact, and so common are misstatements, or at least, high colourings of this kind perhaps the effect of amiable and honest partisities towards the deceased, that the public have but little confidence in all that is said and written on such occasions. The writer of these few words on the death or Mrs. Oliver, sustains no tie of relationship to the deceased, and therefore believes that his observations may be relied on; being the result of intimate acquaintance and of calm and candid reflection on her personal character. Mrs O. had, from her youth, the benefit of Christian instruction. Both her parents have been for many years members of the Presbyterian Church in the town of Le Roy, and her father sustaining the office of deacon and elder in the said church. On a disposition naturally amiable and retiring, no doubt these early instructions had, at least, a restraining influence. She had been early taught, and accordingly saw the folly and vanity of those amusements which have received the name of fashionable, in order to conceal, by a gentle term, their pernicious influence. This was the case for years before she experienced religion. Altho' her life was outwardly correct and strictly moral, she was sensible that more than this was requisite to prepare her for heaven. This truth, "except a man be born again," she knew was uncornplied with on her part, and hence in her present condition, she could not on scriptural ground, hope for admittance into the kingdom of glory. It was in this situation of preparedness for farther truth and light from above, and at the same time cherishing a heart of rebellion and enmity, of which she was but little conscious, that Mrs. O. was visited by a work of the Holy Spirit on her mind and heart, in the winter of 1829, in common with many others, who, that season, were brought hopefully from the kingdom of Satan to that of God's dear Son. Convinced that she was a ruined sinner on the verge of endless misery, she thankfully and cordially embraced Christ as offered in the gospel. She felt it her duty to profess his name before the world. On this good confession her subsequent life, brief and deeply covered with the waters of affliction as it was, is the best comment. In her duty to her Lord and Master, she manifested firmness and decision. In ascertaining that duty, she exercised a calm and sober judgment. Every step of her religious course appeared to be the effect of principle, and the solid conviction of her understanding; not the hasty ebullitions of fancy or mere animal feeling. Soon after her public profession of religion, it pleased God to call her to the furnace of affliction. And during the last eight months, with little or no intermission, her path was one of constant bodily suffering, which she bore with becoming meekness, fortitude, and patience. For some weeks before her departure she perceived that her fate was determined as to the world; and that the angel of death was commissioned to release her soon from a world of sin and suffering. Amid these omens of approachin:g eternity, and the bar of her final Judge, she conversed with her sorrowing relatives with great composure, expressing her unshaken confidence in the death of Christ as her ouly ground of acceptance before an infinitely holy God. — Her disease, now, every succeeding day, bore new symptoms of a speedy dissolution. Falling into a. state of stupcfication on Thursday, she continued without taking much if any notice of what was passing around her bed of death. And without much effort or apparent distress she expired on Wednesday following, the 17th of February, in the 21st year of her age. Thus died this young believer. Altho' not from the circle of fame, effluence, or spleudor, her christian life was one of activity in the service of Christ, while she had health; her sickness bore evident marks of his gracious presence with her through its fiery trials. She adorned her profession by meek submission in suffering; and her humble dwelling, in the solemn hour of death, we have reason to believe, was the place in waiting of ministering angels to waft her soul to the bosom of Abraham, and into the presence of the everlasting throne! After her example, and one by no means without imperfection and sin, let no reader of these lines imagine that worldly morality will save him; let the reader not suppose that he is too young to die; let him believe that from any walk of life, he can be useful to the cause of the precious Redeemer; that thus engaged, his death will be happy, and his soul blessed with God and saints, through an endless duration. |

April 10, 1830 FATAL AFFRAY. An affray on Thursday in one of the boatyards resulted in the death of a man. An Irishman named White and a Canadian (from Quebec) commonly called Newton were engaged caulking a boat. Newton taxed White with reminisses in working—White gave him the lie—Newton struck White—and the latter retaliated by striking N.'s head with a caulking mallet. They afterwards became reconciled, and White borrowed money to treat Newton at a grocery. Next morning, Newton was found in a shed, in a dying condition; and on being removed there from died. An inquest was held yesterday by Coroner Beach. Dr. Elwood was called to examine the corpse; and on opening the skull (which was fractured) found several ounces of extravasated blood occasioned by the blows, and which unquestionably caused death. White helped to remove Newton in the morning, when found in the shed. Sheriff Livinngston despatched officers in various directions in quest of him. It may be added that both the deceased and the refugee were "rather groggy" (to use the language of one of the witnesses) when they quarrelled. MARRIED, At Clarkson, on the 7th inst. by the Rev.

TRIAL FOR MURDER. The trial of James Gray and Elijah Gray, (senior,) for the murder of Samuel Davis, committed in Le Roy, on the 2d January last, came on before the Oyer and Terminer last week, at Batavia—Judge Gardiner presiding. It was called on Wednesday at 1 o'clock, when D. Rumsey, (district attorney,) Dudley Marvin and H. J. Redfield, appeared as counsel in behalf of the people and E. B. Allen, D. H. Chandler and G. Hosmer, for the prisoners. The cause was opened to the jury by Mr. Redfield, and the testimony was closed on the part of the prosecution on Thursday evening. On Friday. Mr. Allen opened the defence, and the testimony was closed Friday evening.—The whole of Saturday was spent in argument by the council. Mr. Chandler took the floor in the morning, and spoke about five hours, and was followed Mr. Hosmer for near 3 hours; when Mr. Marvin rose on behalf of the people, and addressed the jury about six hours, and then was obliged to close his remarks, much sooner then he otherwise would, in consequence of the approach of the Sabbath morning. He sat down a few minutes before 12 o'clock, when the Judge committed the cause to the jury without a charge, because of the lateness of the hour and the great inconvenience of adjourning over to Monday. On Sunday morning, about 7 o'clock, the jury returned a verdict of guilty of murder against both defendants. We understand the counsel for the prisoners objected to the final submission of the cause to the jury without the charge of the Judge, and that on Monday, when it was expected sentence would have been passed, the Judge was induced to suspend the sentence to give time for an application to the Suprene Court for a new trial, for the reason that no charge as to the law and facts of the case was given by the Judge, and upon the ground that this was the prisoner's right, especially when they demanded it. The state of the case, renders it improper for us to go more into the details of the trial; for should a new trial be granted, the public mind should be kept free from any possible prejudice of a bias, which might arise from the publication of a report of the evidence adduced on this trial. We understand very little other business was done at this Court, although every moment was industriously improved. The public interests seem to require a special Circuit; our next General Session must make a General Jail Delivery, or otherwise a large number of poor fellows will have to tenant warm rooms in the county jail through the summer.–Le Roy Gaz. |
