----- Oorspronkelijk bericht ----- Van: Ottie Thiers Aan: BOSTON-L-request@rootsweb.com Verzonden: zondag 24 februari 2002 16:53 Onderwerp: thank you Dear listmembers, About a year ago I asked your help in my search for the descendents of my grandmothers brother Jo Kalkhoven, who emigrated in 1915 from the Netherlands to the USA. Several listmembers sent me useful information and advise. I promised to keep you informed. There is good as well as bad news: thanks to the Boston list I was able to trace our lost relatives, but ... I have come tot the conclusion that they are not interested at all in any contact. I very much appreciate your system of mutual help. If anyone has dutch ancestors, or has family documents in dutch and is unable to read them, I'ld be happy to offer some help. I haven't got the time to do extensive research, but I know the system here and can at least show you the way .. thanks again, Ottie The Netherlands

Am looking for information and reminisces about growing up in Charlestown. Mymother grew up there and I am begging to trace her roots. She is Mary Cooney b 1912, siblings AnnCooney born 1902, James Cooney born 1914. She went to Charlestown high and was active in sports. Would like to contact any friends or anyone that knew the family..perhaps some childhood photos. I know she use to do summer vacations with Mary Crowley and I think they went to Maine or NH. James Cooney her brother was a police detective in Boston. Her sister Ann lived in Winthrop. If anyone has photos or memorabilia or stories about Charlestown --would appreciate that too. Ann

Please, contact Sandra Craighead if you can fill this request. She has not received a response from a BPL request and would like help from someone who can do this locally, preferably within a few days. thanks!

Hello, Could someone please suggest to me, how to go about finding a death record in Boston for Karoly (Charles) ZAGONYI / ZAGONI , who was the Union commander (Colonel) of General "Fremont's Body Guard" during the Civil War? He came back to Boston after the war, for his wife, Amanda SCHWEIGER (her father, who was from Germany, owned some sort of glass factory in Boston). She was living alone by 1870 and I presume then, that he died some time between 1865 and 1870. He was originally from Hungary, and his name was sometimes mis-spelled SAGONYI / SAGONI. This is all of the information that I have. Thank you so much, John Maurath conlaeth@juno.com

Looking for information on Ellen O’BRIEN/BRYAN b 1825 in Ireland. Think she was born in Ballindangan, Glanworth Co Cork. This assumption is based on an article that appeared in "Missing Friends " a series of books published by the New England Genealogical Society which reprinted ads in the Boston Pilot from 1831 to 1876. Ad placed by Ellen (O'BRYAN) CUMMINGS in 1875 her address as Taylorsville PO Luzerne Co PA. (This is Taylor borough of Scranton, now Lackawanna Co ) She was looking for her sister Margaret (O'BRYAN) CHUSIC (CUSICK/CUSACK) of Ballydangan, Co. Cork who came to US 16 yrs prior and had settled in Massachuetts. 2nd Ad names her as Margaret (O'BRIEN) CHUSIC and names her husband as William, her home as Ballindangan, parish of Glanworth, Co. Cork and coming to the US 18 or 19 years previous is sought by her sister Ellen O'BRIEN same address but to John CUMMINGS. Parish Glanworth is in the extreme northeast of Co Cork (not near the Beara Peninsula). Ellen O’BRIEN was married to John CUMMINS/CUMMINGS and they raised most of their family in the Rhymney, Tredgar area of Wales. Their family Ellen 1845; Michael 1853; Richard 1857; Andrew 1859; John 1862 were all born in Wales. They were members of the Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception in Tredgar. The CUMMINGS family came to US and daughter Catherine was born in Hastings on the Hudson, NY in 1865. They settled in the Scranton PA area (Old Forge, Minooka, Taylor areas). Their eldest daughter Ellen married Patrick SULLIVAN in 1863 in Rhymney, Wales. Would appreciate any information or suggestions. Please contact me Walton J. Sullivan at wsullivw@aol.com Walton J.
