Chronological records of
Sarah Isiline Armstrong Hallenbeck
1864-1879 and 1893-1911

These "chronological records" were submitted to this website by E. Wendy Baker. Wendy writes, "Some years ago, my mother saved a box of records, photographs and information of Sarah Isiline Armstrong Hallenbeck which was about to be thrown away. In this box was a copy of Sarah's records that she carefully kept from 1864 through 1879 and again from 1893 through 1911. The records had been transcribed by her great-grandson Lyman Armstrong Rudd and had been copied by his relative John W. Armstrong on November 19, 1976. Sarah was my mother's great-grand-aunt. She was born June 28, 1843 and died January 14, 1925. She was married to Daniel Hallenbeck. They lived in the hamlet of Mapletown, just east of Hoosick, where they raised two daughters, Violet M. Hallenbeck and Maude Morgan Hallenbeck. I remember visiting their daughter, Maude, who lived to be a very sharp 102 years old. Interestingly, she has my grandmother's birth listed correctly as August 15, 1903, but her name as Ellen D. Hallenbeck. We always knew my Gram as Dorotha Ellen Hallenbeck. Sometimes information brings new questions. Sarah had a wealth of names and dates that were carefully kept, and I hope sharing them exactly as they were typed by Mr. Armstrong (including various spellings and the change in style of writing the dates) may help those in search of names and dates of ancestors located in and around the town of Hoosick in Rensselaer County."
