Hi! I'm a descendant of the Van Cleef family, a family who I feel has a very interesting story to tell. Unfortunately, their story has been hushed up quite well, and I only have a little bit of it. The Van Cleef's lived in Fayette, Tyre, and Seneca Falls. The the first of the Van Cleef to live in Upstate New York was Isaac and his wife Femmetje, of Phebe, Quick. Their son, Uriah, is my great-great-great-great-great grandfather, and he died 1830 in Fayette. He is buried in the Burgh Cemetery. His son, Tunis, married Maria Alleman. I have a some interesting stories about their son, Devereaux, who married Harriet White, and also their grandson, Elwood, who married Ethel Bordner. I was wondering if anybody had any stories, notes, pictures, or information about them that they could share? I'm willing to send my info on the family as well. Also, does anyone know if any letters or journals of theirs exist still, which I could possibly scan or type up?
Thank you so much. I'm a high school student living in France, so learning about my New York ancestors is a little difficult. I go back to Upstate New York every summer. Once again, I would be willing to share information I have on the family already. Thanks again!
