The content of this page evolved as the result of my research on the KAPLE family of Allegany and Steuben Counties, New York with the marriage of Nellie BURDICK to Clarence P. KAPLE. As a result of that union, a fabulous collection of photos, family bibles, and other documents were passed along the subsequent KAPLE generations. Before Nellie BURDICK met and married Clarence KAPLE, she had married Ward PRIOR on Christmas day, 1896. They had a son named Hubertus B. PRIOR nearly a year later on December 7, 1897.
Unless otherwise noted, the photos and documents presented here are

It never ceases to amaze me how unique family treasures, such as Collins
BURDICK's original Civil War discharge certificate, pass from person
to person through the generations, ending up in the collections of distant
relatives--if they survive at all. What KAPLE family treasures
are tucked away in a Burdick descendant's scrapbook or forgotten shoebox
in the attic? I am pleased to be able to share these BURDICK family
treasures. I have tried to be diligent in recording the sources of my information so they can be judged by myself and others as to their reliability. Just because a record exists does not mean it was recorded accurately, whether by the scribe or the original provider. In any event, these records provide us with clues that could help verify our assumptions or point us in new directions. WorldConnect Descendant Register Report for Collins C.
