Hi List, I'm looking for a death date, after 1948, for William M. Casey in Boston. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance. Lynn

Hello listers, I have just found my Ethel KERSHAW married Philip CALLAND of Bury, Lancashire and emigrated to Boston, Massachusetts in 1915 with their children Wilfred, Roy and Connie. I have found their Ellis Island records, and also US Social Security Death Indexes for Ethel, Wilfred and Roy. Philip CALLAND was a joiner/carpenter. In 1915 they went to a friend Mr Roberts at 9 Yale St, Medford, Boston. In 1921 they were at 50 Stanley St, Dorchester, Massachusetts, USA. If anyone can help me with any information concerning the family in Massachusetts I would be most grateful, Thanks and best wishes, Sharon in Perth, Western Australia

I am looking for anyone who might know about the "Talitha Cumi Home" in Boston. I believe the address was 311 Commonwealth Ave.This was a home for unwed mothers. My mother was born there in 1938. The home was bought by the Crittenton Hastings House but they have been unable to locate any records that match . We already have copies of adoption and birth certificates.Any help would be great.

Hi, My name is Lilly Murphy. I am researching my husband's g,g,g, grandparents William MCKENNA and Katherine LANDERS MCKENNA who lived in Charlestown in between 1847-1849. They had two children born in Charlestown during this period: Robert MCKENNA, Christening: 27 MAY 1847 and Katherine MCKENNA,Christening: 12 MAR 1849 They had a son, John born in Ireland in 1845 and a daughter Mary born Scotland in 1846. By 1850 they had moved on to Cleveland were the rest of their children were born. I would like to find additional information about them. I believe they arrived in Boston in May 1846 (from naturalization records) but haven't been able to find them in a passenger list. Are City directories available for the 1847-1849 time period? Where would Boston ship records for 1846 be located? I would like to find out if they were perhaps living with relatives during their time in Charlestown. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hopefully SKS will do the subject look-up and it will be much appreciated. I am unable to read the census records themselves and would like to receive any information transcribed into an e-mail. McHallen Daniel MA Norfolk County Township 3 W. Roxbury Pages 898-899 TIA David

Could sks who has the 1910 Heritage Quest MA census index look up my ggpa, Joseph T Furlong, his wife Agnes, and their teenage/young adult children in the South Boston/Dorchester neighborhood? Joe was a brick mason. Also any information on Thomas Furlong in the same neighborhood. thanks, judy

Hi, Does anyone have access to Indexes for the 1890, 1900 or 1910 indexes for Boston, MA Even some sort of index for which enumeration district a particular street would be in would help. Also does anyone have access to City directories for that time period. Thanks so much. Carol
