What is copyrightable? Some like to argue that genealogy is
just facts, and facts can not be copyrighted or that the
information came from public records and therefore can not be
copyrighted. It is true that original public records in the U.S.
cannot be copyrighted, but a compilation of them can be. The law
recognizes the right of transcribers and compilers to be
compensated and have their work protected. If you don't think
this is work, transcribe some records or decipher some census records or other hand written material. Accumulated genealogical information, to the extent that it is an expression, can be protected by copyright, but the actual facts in the information cannot be protected. The information I have compiled here is therefore protected and I do hereby exercise that right. All Rights are reserved and this material can not be reproduced in any manner without my written consent. George E. Sawyer.

I would like to take this space to thank the Steuben County Historians office for all their help. I obtained a great deal of information for these pages from their office when it was located on Pulteney Square in Bath, New York. They have now moved so that they are near the new Bath Public Library known as the Dorman Library. Without their kind help it would have taken me much longer to do what I have done on these pages. THANK YOU Dick and Marion!
Sincerely,
George E. Sawyer
