From the compiler:
The following is the text of births, marriages, and obituaries copied from various Essex County newspapers. I began this project in June of 1983. My original intent was to create a set of "vital records" for the time period leading up to 1880 when the state began compiling vital statistics. For several years I worked on it in my spare time, until moving to Franklin County in September of 1983. Unfortunately, I never returned to the project. I believe my stopping point was the May 5th, 1864 issue of The Elizabethtown Post.
As much as possible, I copied all of the information found in the newspaper. Illegible material was marked by an underline or question marks. On occasion, very long material was not copied and a note was made to see the newspaper for a long obituary or poem.
All entries are listed alphabetically with women's obituaries being listed twice, once under their maiden name and once under their married name. Marriages are listed three times: once under the male's name, once under the female's married name, and once under the female's maiden name. The abbreviations inst. (instant, means of the current month ) and ult. (ultimo, means last) refer to the month. At the end, you will find a list of publications which were searched along with a list of issues which were missing.

DiedIn Peru, on the 18th ult. Mrs. Elizabeth, consort of the late James NICHOLS, and daughter of Jacob BOWRON, aged 19 years. Her life was truly a chequered scene. Being called to consign to the grave the companion of her youth, and during the short time she remained in lonely widowhood, her bodily health was extremely delicate. But amidst her complicated sufferings, she was rarely known to complain. In all the relations of life, she acted well her part; and was distinguished for maternal kindness and skill in domestic economy. Her course through life was not like the mountain torrent, which fills the vale with its roar; but like the full stream in the valley, in its steady, onward roll. The disease of which she died, together with other infirmities, prayed with such violence upon her whole system, as to bring an entire torpor, from which it was impossible to rouse her but for a moment at a time, which in a measure deprived us of her dying blessing. Her remains were committed to earth, according to the forms of the Friends Church, there to remain till the resurrection of the just.

And left me alone in this wide world to stray.
Though alone I am left in this wide world to stray,
I'll think of thee dearest, I'll watch and I'll pray.
And when Heaven my spirit thinks fit to release,
I'll join thee, thou loved one, in mansions of peace.
Yes, Mary, thou are happy and blest,
With ministring angels thy spirit's at rest.
In life thou wast lovely, in death thou wast fair,
Thou Redeemer has called thee from sorrow and care.

A life of unobstrusive merit, squared by the golden rule all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them. studying and practicing in Christian meekness and sincerity the precepts of the Gospel, won for him no less the dearer affection of numerous relatives than the confidence and respect of the community amid which his life was passed; and the sympathies of a wide spreading neighborhood are extended to his family and relatives on his decease.

Died at Champlain Village, on the morning of the 12th instant, of consumption, JAMES M., eldest son of James M. BURROUGHS, Esquire, in the 17th year of his age.
The death of our young friend comes to us not unexpected, but none the less sad. He was one of the few of earth's mortals of whom it could be truly said, None knew him but to love him. As a scholar, he had few equals for one of his years; and no doubt, his love of reading and unceasing studies, hastened, if they were not the real cause of his death. We sincerely sympathized with the afflicted family in their great bereavement, who have not only lost a beloved son and brother, but an interesting companion; one whose conversation and intelligence were far beyond his years.
Green be the turf above thee.

Died at Port Henry on the morning of the 15th instant, at 7 o'clock, of Congestion of the lungs, CARRIE E., 3rd daughter of John C. and C. S. DOUGLASS, aged 25 years.
Justice to the merits of the deceased, as well as affection for her memory, require more than a bare announcement of her death. Her departure was sudden, and unexpected to herself and friends. Though long the subject of feeble health, it was not till a few days previous to her death that her disease developed symptoms which occasioned alarm. But when apprehensions for her recovery were expresses she was found not unprepared. The hope in Jesus she acquired and has cherished since the fall of '55, had been a constant source of comfort and consolation. Her trust in him was unwavering to the last. In July, '57, she publicly professed her faith in Christ. In character, she was marked by intelligence, Christian decision and constancy. Her disposition, naturally mild, genial And equable, was so purified and sweetened by grace, as to give the impression that it was more etherial than natural. Consequently to know, was to respect and love her. Notwithstanding these were her excellencies, no one was more unassuming or self-distrustful. In conversation with her Pastor, the day before she died, she said, In my funeral discourse I wish you to say nothing eulogistic of me, for it is only through the merits of Christ I cherish it.
She retained her consciousness till the last. Singing of favorite hymns, reading select portions of the Scriptures and offering of prayers, were peculiarly gratifying to her feelings. Her reason, which was very clear and strong, she employed during the most of her last hours, pleading earnestly with and commending her dear friends to the compassionate Savior. Exacting a solemn promise that they would prepare to meet her in that bright world above, her strength failing, she soon yielded to the summons of death and fell asleep in Jesus. All observant of the solemnly interesting scene were made to feel more forcibly the precious truth, Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.

We are pained to record the melancholy and tragic death of Mr. HIRAM H. DOWNY, of Westport, which occurred at about 2 or 3 o'clock, A.M., of Tuesday. Mr. Downey was a dealer in stoves and tin ware, in that village; and a part of the same store is occupied by the drug store of Mr. Ingalls. On the night of the sad event, Mr. Downey, having mislaid his own key, forced the door, and lighting a lamp, which was found burning in the morning, swallowed about half an ounce of strychnine.Instant death must have followed.
An Inquest, was held by Mr. _____ Coroner, and the above facts elicited.
The unfortunate man has been, as we are informed, for many years past, subject to occasional periods of intense despondency to an extent bordering upon insanity, and this, we believe, is deemed the explanation of his self-destruction.
Mr. Downey was a respectable citizen and an honorable and amiable man. He was about 34 years of age and unmarried.

Our readers were informed, last week, tat at a meeting of our citizens, R. W. Livingston Esq. was selected to visit Captain Dwyer, at St. Josephs Hospital, Philadelphia. Mr. Livingston took the boat the same night, and arrived at Philadelphia Saturday night and reached the Hospital early the next morning; but, alas, the brave Captain had breathed his last two hours before. It was found that he had received excellent attendance and care from the surgeon Dr. Crawford, and the tenderest nursing and attention from the Sisters of Charity and other ladies who interested themselves in his case; and a Baptist Clergyman, who visited him, assured Mr. Livingston that he died calmly and in peace and hope.
His sword and other side arms were taken from him by the enemy, but Mr. Livingtons received his watch, purse and papers and brought them with him.
The body was embalmed and put into a coffin enclosed in a leaden case and brought to Westport, on Wednesday (the 21st) where it was placed in charge of the Home Guard of that town, who volunteered for that purpose.
On consolation by some of the leading citizens of the two towns it was concluded to have the funeral on Saturday last, at 1 p.m.
THE FUNERAL
One must have been present to know the depth of feeling exhibited by all classes on this melancholy occasion.
From a letter written partly by Captain Dwyers own hand, to Mr. U. N. Williams, and dated the 15th and one written the day previous by his surgeon, there had not been great apprehension of immediate danger, though all felt the greatest anxiety and sympathy. But, the messenger of our good wishes and assistance, returned with the remains of our noble hearted friend; the news spread like wild fire; and feelings of sadness and respect were deep, overpowering and universal. Every man, woman and child seemed to have lost a dear friend. The people of Westport claimed the privilege of bringing the corpse to this place, on the day of interment; and those of Elizabethtown set themselves at work in earnest to pay all the respect to their deceased townsman.
Early on the morning of Saturday, the people began to gather at Westport and by 9 A.M. a great procession formed. the Home Guard under command of Captain Harris, a veteran of the Mexican war, having the body in charge, and accompanied by the Port Henry Cornet Band, The cortege arrive din Elizabethtown at 12 O,N, and after partaking of refreshments, the exercises were commenced at 1 oclock.
As no [??ing] in the place was sufficient to contain a fourth part of the multitude, these were held in front of the Guard House. The coffin, on which were placed, by [??} hands, chaplets of flowers, wrapped in the flag of his country, was [??ed] above the platform. The services ... [missing text] and only those present could understand and appreciate the incidents of that day. Could the spirit of the departed have looked down upon that vast multitude, thus paying respect to his memory; have seen the almost endless line of carriages that formed the funeral cortege from Westport; the tear that welled up unbidden in every eye, when reference was made in the address to the characters, services, devotion and bravery of the deceasedhave seen that immense concourse, which entirely filled the broad street, from the Court House in to the grave and observed the deep emotion which pervaded every heartthat spirit would have felt no regret for the sacrifice he had made for his country and felt that the sacrifice so nobly and was duly honored and appreciated.
On Sunday last, the Rev. Mr. Smith preached an able and appropriate funeral sermon in the Baptist Church, on the death of Captain Dwyer, which was attentively listened to by a crowded house.
The flag, presented by the ladies of Elizabethtown, on the day Captain Dwyers Company left for the field, was found in hi s knapsack.
That banner, which one year since, he promised to protect from all dishonor, has thus followed him through camp and battle scenes, to his grave. How nobly he fulfilled that pledge by the sacrifice of his life.
