Thanks to DNA matches, we have proven our line of the early Western New York Albro's migrated from the area around Ellisburg, New York. We've not found a link yet to the Busti Albro's.
In our direct line of Albros, family folklore says that
Oscar Barney Albro's father,
Oliver Albro lived near Akley, Pa. We have found no Oliver Albro in that area, and are convinced it was Oscar Barney Albro they referred to.
Oscar Barney Albro had five children, the 2nd oldest son,
Howard F. Albro Sr., was our grandfather. Howard married
Delia Mae Rowe in 1913.
They had 10 children, the last one Robert died in 2010. One child, Norman, was adopted by an aunt, by the name of Waterman, to raise. Delia was very sickly after he was born, and not expected to live. As the story goes, Howard Albro Jr. was in downtown Jamestown one day and met a boy his age that looked almost alike. They started comparing notes, and discovered they were brothers.
My sister, Patricia and myself, are mainly working on the Albro family tree as it pertains to these locations and ancestors, however, we are all the time adding info of other branches of the Albro Families. Please, browse these pages and if you come across a familiar name, someone in your tree, let us know. Maybe we can help each other.
