Israel/Timmerman Snell/Zimmerman/Bellinger/Shoemaker

I am researching and collecting information for the family reunion which is held each year in our family church. Snells Bush Church ( St. Paul's Dutch Reformed Church) is located in Manheim Township in Herkimer county, New York. This church was established in the 1750's where the Palatines settled in the Mohawk Valley. We are trying to up-date our mailing lists and if anyone wants information on the SNELL-TIMMERMAN-ZIMMERMAN -FAMILY REUNION we welcome you to contact us. The following are some of the important families that are linked: Bellinger, Shoemaker, Klock, Walrath, Nellis, Petrie, Garlock, Goodell, Broat and many others



Many famlies settled for a time in the Herkimer- Montgomery counties before traveling west and there is information available on researching these families. The area was mostly made up of farms and Herkimer County became the cheese capitol of the world during the 1800's.

I am also researching information on the Fitton, Smith, Shepley, Jarratt,Booth, and Broadman famlies who were located in Hyde, Cheshire, England. If anyone has information on these families during the 1800's I would like to hear from you.
