Hi All, Some of you may recall in the past this posting but I have to keep at this , hoping there's a brick somewhere in this wall that has gotten loose! I am trying to find family connections to my gg- grandfather John "Sidney" THOMPSON ~ b. ca. 1 April 1838 , claimed to have been born in Boston , however no birth record has been found through the archives or any other sources (look-ups) John often went by the name of Sidney On 1902 death record indicates his father was William , mother was either Elizabeth or Margaret HARDING .(not sure this was his mother's surname ~ surname is according to informant 's information) There were zillions of Wms & Eliza's /or Mgt's . No particular marriage record found that I could honestly say were known to be the correct parents of John Sidney THOMPSON. J.S.T. m. at age 22 y on 29 Nov. 1860 ~ Granby ,Hartford, CT to Emily J. COWDREY dau. of Phelps and Emily HOLCOMBE . In 1870 they resided in Landis ,Cumberland ,NJ By 1873 Emily had signed son George A. at age 11 y into Agricultural School & Asylum for Indingent Boys on Thompson's Island . 1872 (or 74?) ~ Emily was in the Chelsea ,MA directory employed as a nurse. (papers not at hand) 1880 - John and Emily were not together in Chelsea, MA He m. Oct. 1885 in Boston, MA ~ Florenia Alrose MAYNARD dau. of James & Mgt. Catherine DAKIN (no children) My Aunt claims prior to the death of Emily (May 1885) that she resided with John Sidney's parents in Chelsea . I have not any source for that information to confirm nor deny. My Aunt also has in her possession a morter and pestal (?) which apparently belonged to William. My eyes popped when I saw these ~ truly interesting to see and touch something that belonged to family of long ago! In 1872 Boston ,MA Directory was a Wm. Thompson who was a physician , and I wonder if this could be him? But with a name so common will I ever find him? ~ George Ambler THOMPSON ( named after George AMBLER of Trumbull ,Bridgeport ,CT ) claimed in every census from 1900 to at least 1930 that his his father was born in England. I have tried to find Thompson family links in CT , NJ and in MA without prevail , without finding any further ties to John and his parents. In real need of help here , does anyone own a bulldozer that can plow this wall??? Any help / suggestions greatly appreciated. Thank -you much , Andrea

CATHERINE DONOGHUE 10 Jun 1877 Jul 1974 in the SSDI. I am trying to verify if this is the woman I have been looking for, for a while. Her maiden name was Robinson but she is said to have left her husband John Donoghue to live with a man named Dorian about 1904. If anyone has access to the vital records I would greatly appreciate a lookup of her death record -- --- Ginny Chung <gchung@mindspring.com> Searching for COYLE, DONAHOE, DIRKSMEIER, FALLON, MANNING, MULLER, PLUMER, SCANLON, TULLIS out of Boston Searching for DONOGHUE, SKEFFINGTON, WARD, WHOLEY out of Lowell, Mass http://www.mindspring.com/~gchung/tree.htm - Main page http://www.mindspring.com/~gchung/CemeteryMain.html - Mass Cemetery Transcriptions ==============================================

Can someone who has obtained a record from that cemetery tell me the cost.I would like to obtain one but can only get an answering service from their office. Bill.

Hello. Thanks to a wonderful lady, ( Toby )I have broken down some of my brick wall. I am trying to find information on Dennis Patrick O'Connor age 43, his wife Honora age 40 .and thier children, Thomas, age 20, Timithy age 18. MaryAnn age 18, and Bridget age 12. This information was found in the 1860 census for Boston, Ma. The O'Connors were running a boarding house on Summer and South St in Boston. Any information on this family will be appreciated. Best wishes. Bob.

I have noticed some of the MASSACHUSETTS mailing lists are used a great deal for posting Census lookup requests and replies. In an effort to help others I thought I would point out there are mailing lists that were specifically created for this purpose (Census lookups). You may indeed get better and/or quicker responses by posting your requests to the appropriate state/county list. http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Census/ If you don't know what county a town is located in, use this tool: http://resources.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/townco.cgi Good Luck!

If anyone has access to Brookline Directories of the 1940's I would appreciate a lookup. TIA. Bill.
