DIRECTORY OF THE TOWN OF DANUBE

1869 -1870

The Hamilton Child Company of Syracuse, New York produced directories of New York counties for 1869. These directories are useful in conjunction with the 1870 US census, and are available at many New York State libraries and historical societies either in print or on microfilm. In producing these directories, a few residents may have been missed. Absence of a family or person does not always mean that they didn't live there. In transcribing this material we have kept the original spelling and punctuation.

We have no further information on individuals or families listed in the Hamilton Child directories. If you spot your ancestor in any of our directory listings, please contact directly the appropriate Herkimer or Montgomery county historical society for further assistance.
