Don't know if they were still in business in the 1970's but several of my relations buried at Mt. Olivet used John J. Cowan & Sons, 801 Hollins St., Balto., Md I just looked at www.switchboard.com to see if I could locate a phone number but nothing came up. A while ago I wrote to Mt. Olivet and received a response back from a funeral home but I'm sorry I can not seem to locate who that was. Maybe if you trying writing to Mt. Olivet they'll be able to help you further. Also, the death certificate should have that information. Hope something here helps.

I am looking for the obituaries for Ruth Elizabeth (Wirtz) Johnson who died June 23, 1976 and her husband James Brainard Johnson who died May 17, 1941 and are buried in Moreland Park Cemetery. Ruth was originally from Cockeysville, MD and James was born in Charlottesvill, VA but lived in Sparrows Point, MD at the time of his death. I would appreciate any help as this might lead me to finding when in the early 1930s they were married. Wayne

It could have been any funeral home in or near the city, or, for that matter, just about anywhere. Your best bet would be to get her obituary, assuming you know the date of her death. If you know the date, the Pratt library will get you the obituary: http://www.pratt.lib.md.us/slrc/md/mdxgen.html -- Thomas M. Sommers -- tms@nj.net -- AB2SB

Tim, I do appreciate you getting the inscription from Mt. Olivet. I don't know if it will tell me anything I don't already know but it's worth a try. I'll have to order her death certificate to verify her parents names but I am about 99% sure this is the "Miss Annie Carroll" I've been searching for. If I can find the funeral home who handle the funeral I might also be able to learn more, like who made the arrangements for burial. I grew up in Catonsville but don't get a chance to get there very often these days. Still have family there though.

Lisa, I should be able to get down there tomorrow, weather permitting. Snow is forecast for these parts, and the wind today has been gusting upwards of 50 mph for most of the day. Wonder what happened to that couple days of Spring we had last week! But I will do my best with my digital camera, or try to write whatever it may say that I can make out.

I have a request for anyone who might be visiting Mt. Olivet cemetery. I would like to find out what the inscription says on the stone for Ann E. Carroll Cottingham and Samuel Cottingham. Also buried with them are a Martha Cottingham and Bessie C. Wright. They are in section E, 113, SW/4. I've talked to the cemetery and they have given me all the information they have on file but could not tell me the stone inscription. They did tell me there is a stone at the base on 1 and 2 (Ann and Samuel). Thanks in advance, Lisa in PA.

Speaking of Mt Olivet, does anyone remember the name of the tavern across the street from it in the 50s and 60s? -- Thomas M. Sommers -- tms@nj.net -- AB2SB

HI, Sorry, but someone emailed me about some obits I had sent to Lee or Gayle for posting on the Baltimore websites. The email came while I was in MD and now I can't find it to answer. If this was you, please ask me again! You wanted to know if there were only 2 obits on a certain date that listed the cemeteries. I am tempted to say that was all, as I would have transcribed them in full, but I can check if I know the date. Thanks! Mona

Hi List! I wanted to update anyone interested in the effort to add the Jones Family Cemetery to the Baltimore Landmark List. After almost 2 years of work (mostly by the members of the Nottingham Improvement Association), the cemetery has been added to the Landmark List and is now protected from unwanted development. The neighboring house is still being fought over and might be torn down for commercial development, which would be a real shame, as it is a lovely example of late 18th century/early 19th architecture. Thanks to those list members who sent me info about the house and cemetery. Here is part of my original post, including info on who is in the cemetery: This is the info I found a couple of years ago that led me to the Jones Cemetery I found this reference at the Baltimore County Historical Society---it was in a book of unpublished cemetery records, compiled by Robert Barnes around 1985 (obviously his info was outdated by then, as Mary Fischer was already dead): Jones Family Cemetery: This cemetery is located on Philadelphia Road (MD Rte. 7 north of 695) opposite Nottingham Village, approximately 30 yards off the road. Jones Memorial Methodist Church (Maryland Conference) at one time was alongside the cemetery--it was moved so that the church stood directly on Philadelphia Road. The church no longer stands there and the cemetery is taken care of by Mrs. Mary Fisher of Chase, MD and her husband. All those buried in this cemetery are related to one another and to Mrs. Fisher, who holds the deed to the property. Several of the stones are completely covered with ivy and others are not marked. Mrs. Fisher supplied the names of those without stones. The cemetery was copied by Mr. and Mrs. Alex Baumgartner and pictures are on file with the Heritage Society of Essex and Middle River, Inc. The cemetery is enclosed with an iron fence and on the gate are the names of William Jones and his wife Elizabeth A. Jones. 1. E.A. Jones/died/Sept. 18, 1899/age 87 years/Jesus can make a dying bed/....after...pillows are/While on his breast I lean my head/And breath(sic) my last...(illegible) 2. Thomas Taylor/born /June 3, 1890/died Sept. 20, 1901/Asleep in Jesus. Footstone: T.T. 3. RIP/Kate Taylor/age 10 mth/&10 days 4. Willie Henry/Rest in peace 5. Jas. K. P. Henry/Aug. 14, 1841/Aug. 25, 1905/Mary R./Henry/Dec. 25, 1848/March 18, 1922/Rest in peace/Footstones: J.K.P.H/M.R.H. Those without stones: Naomi Taylor Jessie Taylor Gerald Taylor Helen Fantom Davis Ethel M. Henry Davis/died May 28, 1932. age 49 Samuel J. Davis, died Aug. 6, 1943 or 44 age 60 Walter Henry Fanny M. Hastings and Frank R. Hastings (from England). (Note from Mrs. fisher: Fanny and Frank Hastings were the parents of Rev. J. Warren Hastings, pastor of the National City Christian Church in Washington (DC) at the time Lyndon Johnson was Senator.) END OF QUOTE (Please note that some of this genealogy info (below) originally posted is incorrect. I have more recent info if anyone thinks they are related.) A quick genealogy of the people in the Jones Family Cemetery (I have a more complete list, but this will show descent to the deed): Generation #1: William and Elizabeth A. (nee ??) Jones were born in 1812- 1814 in Maryland. William's parents and Elizabeth's mother were foreign born. Their children include daughter Mary R. , b. December 25, 1846 -1852 and (other children ????) In 1870, William and Elizabeth were in Little Gunpowder Falls where William was a farmer. They lived next door to daughter Mary and her family. In 1880, there is a possible match in the census for a William and Elziabeth Jones, both age 65, in the 1st ward of Baltimore city. It lists William as a Huckster, and states that he was born in Maryland and she in Virginia. Previous census have her being born in Maryland, but I believe this is them. There was no one else living with them, and no obvious family around them. Generation #2: Mary R. Jones-Henry Mary R. Jones married James KP Henry in approximately 1870. When daughter Jane was born in 1870, they lived in Little Gun Powder Falls, with Mary's parents. James helped on the Henry farm. Also living with them was John GILL, b. and William Collins, b. Unknown relation of either of these two. In 1880, James KP and Mary Henry were living in District 12 of Baltimore County, with children Mary Elizabeth., b. 1871; James D., b. 1873, Francis, b. 1877 and Walter b. Jan. 1879. (Daughter Jane, presumably, had died) By 1900, James and Mary were still farming, (District 15, Baltimore County) and four of their 7 children were with them - Walter, b. Jan. 1879; Ethel, b. Aug. 1883; Nellie, b. June 1885 and Bessie, b. August 1890. The older children Mary Elizabeth, James and Francis were out of the house by 1900. Four more children had been born but did not live. Generation #3 Children of Mary Jones-Henry: (Eleven born - 7 lived) Mary Elizabeth married George W. Taylor (b. 1864) approximately 1889. In 1910, they were on York Ave. next door to sister Francis. Brother Walter lived with them and worked in a broom factory. They had at least two daughters, Graces E. (1904) and Flora M. (1911). By 1920, they had purchased a home at 2619 Greenmount Street. At that time, George was working as a Piano tuner and Mary was a Barber (?) working at home. In 1930, the family was still on Greenmount. By this time, Francis had bourght the home next door. Daughter was a stenographer in an office. (George was blind?). Although neither Mary nor George are listed in the burials at the Jones family cemetery, there are several who may be Mary and George's children: Thomas Taylor, b. June 3, 1890, d. Sept. 20, 1901. Kate Taylor, aged 10 months and 10 days (no dates) and Naomi, Jessie and Gerald Taylor, none of whom have stones. It is unknown what happened to Grace and Flora. James D. Henry was married twice, the second time in 1907 to Anna M Sands, b. 1886. He already had a son, Timothy E., b. 1903 from the first wife, and together he and Anna had James S. in 1908 and Mary E. in 1909. In 1910, Anna's older sister Elizabeth lived with them at 205 N. Luzerne Street. Francis married Frank Hastings in 1897 in Baltimore. Frank was a house painter whose parents arrived in New York from England in 18. They had one son, James Warren Hastings, born in 1898. In 1910, they were living at 2623 York Ave, next door to sister Mary Elizabeth and her family. Between 1910 and 1920, the Hastings bought a home at 2621-2623 Greemont Street. Frank continued to do house painting, and Francis, "Fannie", tended to the many boarders they took in. J. Warren went on to become a well-loved and prominent minister. Frank died (pre-1930) and Frances died in ( )Both are buried in the Jones family plot. Walter lived with sister Mary E. Taylor and her family in 1910, next door to sister Francis Hastings. He was an iron-worker. In 1920, at age 40, he was still single and boarding with the widow Sohpie Gischel. and was working as a Rigger in a shipyard. It is unknown if he ever married. He is buried in the Jones family plot, without a marker. Ethel married Samuel Davis, an interior decorator, approximately 1910 and had two daughters, Mary (1912) and Martha. ( 1914). In 1930, they were living on Philadelphia Road, very near the Jones Family cemetery. Generation 4 children of Ethel and Samuel Davis Mary Davis married Berhardt Fischer. (This is the Mary Fischer who was last said to have the deed to the cemetery.) We don't know if her sister Martha married or not. ****** Mona

Hi All, I am now home from my productive trip to Baltimore and think I have answered the emails from those individuals who offered to take a look at the stone in Baltimore Cemetery, but if anyone else is curious, here is the info: First, if anyone else wants to go look at it, I will send you a attachment with 2 of the photos I took--one of the stone I am trying to read and one that shows it in the group of other stones in the plot, to make it easy to find--just email me. It is in lot K 141 and 154. If you drive in the cemetery and go around the circle where the little building is (go right around it to your right) and stop on the road where the #5 is painted--this is about 1 o'clock if you are looking at the little building from the main gate. Park there and while still in your car look to your right--you will see the grassy path with no stones (about 3 feet wide)--walk down that about 8-10 rows or so. The stones face away from you. You should find the stones on your left as you walk down the path. If you get to the next cross street, you have gone too far. The word we can't read is here: Mr. David W. Davies a native of Wales and the grand copper master of _________________departed this life, etc. etc. The missing word appears to start with an "L" and for some reason, seems to end in "'S" (apostrophe, capital S). Any help with any of the other letters would be a big help. Thanks! Mona

Would like to trade info with anyone related to the McILVAINE family in Balto 1900 and forward. I have Mary ____ MCILVAINE-DOLL. She was born about 1870 in PA and moved to Balto by 1900. She died after 1930. She may have been married to an EYSTER before McILVAINE or McILVAINE may even be her maiden name.... This is quite a mystery so far...... Pls contact me if you are related to McIlvaine, Eyster or Doll. Thank-you!! Kathy treenut@bcpl.net

I would like to connect with anyone with DOLL ancestors in Baltimore or PA. Especially looking for info on a Charles DOLL born about 1866 and family. Pls email me directly. Thanks! Kathy treenut@bcpl.net
