I am still looking for anyone who has any info on either of
these two ladies. They were great great aunts of mine and they each married one of my great grandpa's brothers. It is believed they were sisters and possibly twins. They came from Clinton County, NY. Delia Stave married Christopher Cumm and lived in Herkimer, NY. She died in 1950. She had 4 children that lived: John Cumm, Dora Cumm-Bowman, Clara Cumm-LaGasse and Altina Cumm-Daley. Mary Stave or Staves married Pete Come and settled in St. Lawrence County, NY. She had nine children. Any help I can get finding anything about these ladies would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I just recently lost my father and in going through his papers found a copy of my grandmother's birth certificate. She was born November 11, 1901 - and her mother's maiden name is listed Margaret Staves (born 1878?)- married to my great grandfather Harold Fanning. I am wondering if there might be a connection.

My entire family is from St. Lawrence County, NY and I am wondering if there is a connection. The birth record was from Tupper Lake.

There is a Delia Staves born 1878 to Francis (Frank) and Agnes (DeVarney) Staves. Delia was the oldest child - a sister Maggie born 1880, brother Frank born 1882, brother William born 1883, sister Sarah born 1885, brother Norman born 1891 and sister Edith born 1893. The entire family was from Altamont, NY aka Tupper Lake, NY. If this is the Delia you are looking for, she would be my great-grandmother's sister. If you think this is she, let me know and I will tell you what I have learned about the Staves family.
