The closest Family Hishory Center is 1 & 1/2 hrs drive from me. Have been there acouple years ago. It is small and wanted you to know film numbers you needed. If you didn"t have the numbers, then couldn't help.
I found the 1865 Lewiston, Niagara Co. NY census John Goss is there, But no Samuel or Lemuel - ref.; familysearch.org/recordsearch. You have to go through the whole area to find who you are looking for. I get Hertiage Library at home and did some browsing and found a Lemuel Goss in 1840 census Blackrock, Erie Co., NY ages fit for Thomas, John, Lemuel ? Samuel & Grace,
