3.) Book resource:
From some of my poking around, I have learned that much of the Degolier
family history was published in a book titled, "The Washington Ancestry
and records of the McClain, Johnson and Forty Other Colonial American
Families" by author Charles Arthur Hoppin. (This is actually a three
book set.) My local library subscribes to some terrific databases which
actually include copies of this text. With internet access, I can log
in to the local library and get to one of three of these databases from
my home computer. The one I can access from home is called Heritage
Quest. Ask your local library if they have similar services. It is fun
to learn how to use these terrific resources!
TANNER
The Tanner and Seekins families intersect through the marriage of Julia
Sophia Tanner and Josiah B. Seekins in 1840. Their daughter, Emmaline
Baldwin Seekins married Herbert Denzil Degolier in 1875, linking both
families with the Degolier clan.
Website including Tanner genealogy records
The Tanner and Seekins families are linked by more than just this
marriage. Both families were involved in the early church history of
Chataqua County, New York. "Joseph Seekins and wife" are listed as some
of the first members of the Free-Will Baptist Church of Ellington,
organized in 1828. "The first settled pastor" was Francis B. Tanner,
who served the church about 20 years. In the following website, look
for "Ellington" (in alphabetical order), then "Free-will Baptist Church
of Ellington (1828)."
