FamilySearch.Org Record Searches

This morning I went on family search and decided to attack their state by state records area.  I did Ohio, Pa, NY, and MN.  NY and MN seem to be the ones that gave me the most info, these are what I found.

Okay, different side of the family, but I was concentrating on getting as much as I could from the NY records, Louis is Henrietta's 2^nd great grandfather, I believe, but I am still vague on who is who, and where they fit in, on this family.

I am not 100% on this one, but I believe that this is Nicholas Farber's brother and parents. I can see someone mistaking Fink for Pink, and Farber for Ferber, especially back then, sometimes they didn't even spell their own names right!

I am searching for my 6^th great grandfather, plus his parents, I simply know his name is James Greene, I found THIS posting on another website: Christopher Green came here in 1817, and settled about half a mile east of the business part of Youngsville borough. In 1820 he removed to Yankee Bush, in Conewango township. James Green (grandfather of Dorwin Green, now respected resident of Youngsville) also came here in 1817, and for some time kept a shoe
shop in the western part of the borough. James Sturdevant, also grandfather
of Dorwin Green, came in 1817, and brought Dorwin with him, then an infant.

So, going by the above, James Greene is father to Christopher, and James Sturdevant (below) is grandfather to Dorwin. Christopher Greene is my 5^th great grandfather, his son Halsey is my 4^th.

I believe this MIGHT be my James Sturdevant's birth and mother, the date is round about right. But I am not 100% positive, but he is the only one I have found so far, but that doesn't mean there isn't another option out there!
