I read the article about early hygiene and thought it might be informative, it was but full of pointless comparisons like regulation of use of chemicals. How could there be if they were not aware of the consequences of their use. To say that the people were retarded and all died young as a result of lead poisoning contradcits what was said about Queen Elizabeth who lived and reigned for some time and plastered her face with white lead powder. Lead was used all over the place, plumbing, brewing, linings of jam pots.

To make emotional comparisons with modern day ethics is valueless and demeans your article.

When we visit the Kateri Shrine in Fonda, we usually drive west on Rte 5 and visit Fort Klock. The scenery is beautiful and the history of the area helps us appreciate the difficult time the early settlers had in securing freedom for themselves and eventually freedom for us. Fort Klock is a "must see."

The map is very hard to read- the X and O are not readily visible- I looked for over 15 minutes and couldn't find them- maybe instead of using a highway map, a hand-drawn one without all the non- necessary towns and highways could be made?

My husband and I visited the Stone Arabia cemetery several years ago and found it a very peaceful and yet emotional place. My interest in the cemetery was that my Great-g-g-grandfather, Shubel Reynolds was in the Revolutionary War and in his war records he mentions that he along with others went back and dug up and reburied Col. Brown's body. He was not in the battle in which Col. Brown was killed.

Hello everybody~ My name is Mindy Klock. My father is Marshall Brian Klock whose father was Conrad Klock whose father was Claude Klock-my great grandfather. I am looking for information regarding my ancestral line that needs to be traced back to how the Klock people immigrated to the US (presumably New York). I need this information for a portfolio I need to put together for a college course. This website has so much information, but then is very overwhelming as well, and so I do not know where to look. Any information at your earliest convenience would be very helpful in this matter. Thanks again, Mindy Klock

It is regrettable a visitor has had a bad experience, and I have apologized. So many comment favorably on the tours, it is most unusual to have someone unhappy.

The only thing we can figure out that happened was that a tour was going on at the time. There is only one site interpreter and to keep track of two floors at once, the downstairs is locked. In the past too many historic items walked out the door and this is the only way one person can keep track of the entire house and contents. We realize we should perhaps have two people on site, but as always, money is a big issue for an independent site. Should you find the door locked, please be patient, as soon as possible you will be given your tour. Joyce Berry, webmaster and President of the Membership for Fort Klock Historic Restoration.

my daughter and i visited fort klock on the first sunday afternoon in june. it was a rainy day and quite cool. i was to return to my home in another state the following week. i wished to see fort klock.

there were many cars in the driveway. the flag was flying that the fort was open. we knocked on all the doors including the caretakers. no one wished to acknowledge that we were there. people were inside the caretakers cottage as the curtains kept moving as people were looking at us.

now, if the fort was open----why were we treated as such. it looked as if there was a private party going on and did not wish to take the time to let visitors in.

i wished to buy some books and other items at the fort. your loss!!!

i surely hope that this reaches the proper sources and action is taken

I am of the same SCHAFFER line as presented on your site, and I, as you, had the incorrect Anna SCHAFFER as the wife of Johannes STERNBERG. By the ages at death of Johannes and Anna from Peoples Cemetery (near Sharon) inscriptions, the correct Anna (SCHAFFER) STERNBERG had to be the daughter of Martinus SCHAFFER and Sara RICKARDT who was born 27 May 1772. Anna STERNBERG's age upon her death on 6
May 1844 is given as 71 years, 11 months, and 21 days. Although not exactly correct, her date of birth from those dates is calculated as 15 May 1772.

I believe the geneology that you have lists all of his children - Arthur, Evelyn, Barbara, Larry, Charlotte, Gail, Kathy, and Cheryl, but it does not appear to have any other information about their children, etc. If you would like more information about this branch of our family please e-mail me and I'd be glad to fill in the missing pieces for you.

This site has been very helpfull in my search of the first owners of the house that we are looking to buy. We just looked at the home of Jacob Dievendorff in Curry Town N.Y. It's a very large and beautiful house and I think it will make a wonderfull home for my family and I. I have learned alot about Mr. Dievendorff and his rather large family. They are all bueried in the family cemetary in the back part of the property that we want to buy. Acording to one of the articales I found on your site it gave me the names of everyone in that cemetary, it also said that it was run down,some of the head stones are knocked over and it is over grown and just in need of some TLC wich I intend to give to it. Thank you for all the info. Cheri

Congratulations on a fantastic,knowledgeable and successful job well done. My heart goes out to those who produced such hard work and deserve the upmost credibility for it. I for one will visit often.

I would like to comment on the message Kathleen McLaughlin left on the guest book 1/5/03

Some of the information on my family tree is unsubstantiated. I got the information from several different sources, the Klock/Clock Genealogy Book, the Descendants of Lieut. Henry Timmerman of Herkimer County Book, The Descendants of Peter and Anna Kilts Snell Book, and information I found on line, on the net on other family trees, also a lot of people have sent me their lines. I do not verify the information so some of the information may be incorrect. If you are looking for your roots on my tree which I have on line on the Fort Klock web page, do not take everything as Gospel. I am sure there are errors. If you find an error, please let me know and I will correct it.

When doing my family tree I found some information on line that Kathleen had researched, names, dates, etc., so I thought I was doing the right thing by giving her credit for the information...but I made a mistake by putting a blanket acknowledgement in the front of my tree. It made it sound like I worked with Kathleen McLaughlin in creating my tree. This did not happen. If I found something she had done on the web, I would add it to my tree.

I have requested her name be removed from my tree and I am sorry if this caused any hard feelings, I have a lot of respect for Kathleen and the Genealogy work she does.

Again, if you are trying to find your roots, my tree would be a good place to start, but some of it may not be reliable and you should verify the information by investigating yourself. Thank you, Dave Klock

I am the Grandson of Florence Klock Henshaw, born in Elmira, Chemung County, NY, 1889. I believe she was the Granddaughter of Sanford Klock of Mongomery County, NY. A Sanford Klock is listed in the 1880 US Census for Elmira along with two sons, Peter, whom I believe to be my Great-Grandfather Peter S. Klock, and Jarvus. Occupation of Sanford and both his sons (ages 32 and 28 per the Census transcriptions) is given on the Census form as "mason" or "stone mason".
I was thrilled to find this prospective connection to the Tryon/Mongomery County Klocks and especially to find all the information about Fort Klock and the Palatine German immigrants on the website! My congratulations to Dave Klock and the many others involved in the maintenance of the Website and Fort Klock!

I hope to make a trip from my home in Western New York to visit Fort Klock next summer.

I also intend to pursue investigation into the possibility of my Klocks' relationship to the families in Dave's genealogy and am also interested in Mrs. Dan F. Williams whose earlier Klock genealogy work is on the site - the maiden name of my Chemung County Great-Grandmother Susan Klock was Williams!

Sincere Thanks for the Great Website!

I am so happy to find that Ft. Klock is still there. When I was a little girl, my family stopped there on a drive one day. It was pretty run down, but there was a large spinning wheel near a fireplace in the main room. I also remember a 'hidden' door in the lower level which my father told us was probably used for escape during Indian raids since it was on the bank of the river. In later years, we visited again and found it was being restored for a museum and touring. I am originally from Oswego, New York, and now live in Texas. I am of German and Dutch descent and would love to know all I could about the Klock family and about Ft. Klock.

Dear family of the Gloversville, Ft Plain, Fonda, Mowhawk area:

I am a related to Lt Col Volkert Veeder who was in the Tryon County Militia, 3rd regiment. I've enjoyed my heritage of the Veeders, Vroomans, Morrells, Gaylords, and Eastons from that area of the country. Your area of the country is beautiful. I can see why our families settled there. The Fort Klock site has been very helpful in searching out my roots. Fonda has a great Genealogist named Volkert Veeder. Volkert was helpful to me in my search when my family visited the area the summer or 2001. I hope to get back upo there someday to finish the family tree. If anyone knows anything about my Grandfather Emmett Ray or Bailey Easton b 7/2/1899 Corinth, NY it would be most helpful to me to know more about him. Thank you,

I would like to locate solid facts of information that I have not in my posession. For instance the "Flint Bible". Or orginal pictures of their time. I know there must be something out there in our great country that I could share with it's owner.

Ms. Wilson,

It is with regret that I find I must publicly answer you. Your son arrived with 3 of his friends and his cousin, a total of 5 people. Immediately upon entering the museum he explained to me that his mother had been a caretaker over 20 years ago. That while Fort Klock had employed her he had been born. (He had not been born in the actual Fort but at a local hospital). Your niece explained that she had brought her camera so she could take a picture of the Oil Painting that hung upstairs which included your son. She thought that it would be nice if he had a photograph of it. At this juncture I asked the group if they would like a guided tour of the house? They said no but asked if it would be all right if they just looked around the house and took a few photographs. I told them that it would be fine. I accompanied them room by room all through the house, and made myself available to answer any questions.

Your Niece who was very pleasant & engaging had many questions, predominantly about the Oil Painting, and a person who had baked apples in the hearth. She remembered this from her childhood. I told her that I would make an inquiry regarding this Oil Painting and that I would e-mail you with what information I could obtain. I had remembered your visit from last year, and the nice things that you had to say about your visit. I also recalled that you had left your e-mail address. I told your son that I knew we had a newspaper clipping of some of our members & supporting members and that I thought he was in the accompanying picture. He said that he knew about the article and that you had a copy of it. But still there was this Oil Painting ………?

Your son made a few purchases in the gift shop, said thank you and left.

I should explain that at no time did your son indicate that he wanted a paid guided tour through the house or did he or his guests pay for a tour. He did not present a membership card, and is not a supporting member. If so this would entitle him to guided tours without charge. As far as I know He was admitted as a Guest, gratis.

To look around means just that, look around! Your son asked very few questions, but your niece had many. I am unaware of the policies of 20 + years ago, but current policy is to accompany guests through the house. I do not know if your son was disappointed because he could not walk through the museum unattended. But this should not be misconstrued as a reflection of your son’s character, it is policy. I admitted your son and his friends. A courtesy which was personally extended to them by me. Which I did not have to do, and is not required in other words I personally went out of my way.

The grounds and gardens are always open and available to the public. Anyone may utilize the grounds and picnic area, and many people do who never visit the inside of the fort. I never prevented or refused your son from utilizing the grounds; they are publicly accessible as a mater of fact the topic was never approached. A personal invitation should not have been expected in order to enjoy a public space.

I feel perhaps the old seasoned expression that You can never go home again applies here. Perhaps the Idea of the fort held more enchantment in a child’s mind then the actual place did. Things like Oil paintings loom larger in a child’s mind than later, when viewed as an adult. I am sure Paul would have been more excited and enjoyed his visit much more if you personally accompanied him. You could have addressed the specifics of the house in relation to his childhood that I unfortunately could not. And for this I am truly sorry. I think we all have experienced this at some time in our lives.

As far as the Oil Painting: After inquiry, There never was an Oil Painting What was being referred to as the Oil Painting was the same framed newspaper clipping that I had mentioned to your son & your niece.

Unfortunately,

The Care-Taker

As a former caretaker of Ft. Klock, I worked there in summers of 1978-1979. Both of my children were born there. My oldest son is now 23, he return to show his friends his birthplace. He was very excited about showing his friends where he played until he was 2. Upon his arrival he was treated like trash. The caretaker would not answer any of their questions, show them around and made them feel very uncomfortable. She followed them around, watched their every move. She would not let them walk around the grounds.
Paul and his friends left the fort with a very unpleasant feeling.
To my children, the fort is a very important part of their hertiage.
I hope that the caretaker does not treat all visitors the way Paul was treated. The sad part is that I was there last summer and had a nice visit with the lady. She even told my neice that she remembered my visit.

I would like to know why he was treated this way.
