Delaware County, NY Genealogy and History Site

In 1992 the Town of Colchester Bicentennial committee sold a Photo and Literature Album Calender. My copy was a gift from my late mother Elsie Lacey. The following information comes from this calender. In 1907 there were 17 marriages, 66 births, and 53 deaths. I assume the following death record for 1907 came from the town clerk's records. -- Evelyn Boyles
