1840s Brockport genealogy..

Someone messaged me on the Rose Archives page on Facebook and I asked them to email, I find FB messenger inconvenient and awkward. They are researching a couple who lived in Brockport c1841. I had to tell them that that period is a tough one, the village newspapers of the day have not survived, the Brockport Republic starts in late 1850s. Not much in the way of directories etc either. I did see if any mentions in latter years, but weren't, and I asked if she had contacted the Brockport United Methodist (she has a wedding certificate for 1841 from there) although unlikely they would have such records. Also connected her with the village museum.
