How early to the City Directories go? Happy Familying Laura Irby in VA --------------------------------------------- << DeAnne: You have posted this query several times to the list over the past few months. I do not believe you are going about this the correct way. The Boston City directories only give you the name, address and sometimes occupation of any given individual. Therefore, the Boston City Directory is not going to tell you if Remi and Emily are Louise's parents. Even if they are all listed under the same house or living on the same street, you cannot make assumptions to their relationship. What you need to do is either find the family living together in the 1880 census or trace them through vital records. These records will tell you the relationship to Louise (if any). Vital Records in Massachusetts are open to the public and easily researched (especially with such unique names). You should try to locate Louise's birth, marriage or death record to determine her parent's names. If they turn out to be Remi and Emily, you can then locate their records and go backwards. Obituaries are also good sources for giving relations. But the City Directories, while helpful info, isn't going to give you what you want. Jerry >>

I saw this on another mailing list and thought that some of you may be interested. I have no affiliation with this organization other than simply being one of their customers. From their website: "The Project is all about making CDs of old and rare books available to genealogists and historians at a reasonable price. It is a "user supported" project." ======================================================================== Hi folks, A fabulous new CD released today: The National Gazetteer of the United States 1884. A comprehensive account of every State, territory, county, city, town and village throughout the Union, with populations from the last national census (1880). Incredibly useful information about railroads, navigation, lakes, rivers, rivers, canals, mountains and valleys as well as the physical and statistical geography of the country. ======================================================================== This CD complements another earlier 1854 USA gazetteer which we released some time ago. When we released the 1854 we expected it to do quite well, but to our *amazement* we have managed to part with very, very few indeed. :-( Now, these books contain details of *every* place in the United States. As an example one of my wife's relatives emigrated from Scotland in the 1870's and fetched up in a place called Cobham Va, growing grapes. The entry in 1884 for the place says 'Cobham Va., p.v. (post village) Co (county), 15m. E. of Charlottesville. Pop 85.' (note that the population figure is taken from the 1880 census). Using this information I can tell you that Mr Bird and family accounted for more than 10% of the whole village! Obviously, being such a tiny place it only gets a tiny mention but the fact is that it *is* in the book. I also looked up Tombstone, Arizona and was amazed to find that it was even smaller than Cobham was, with only 80 people there in 1880! I did a bit of digging and found out that Tombstone's population just a year later was estimated to be up to seven *thousand*, and around fifteen thousand in 1885! Today it is about 1500. The entries for some of the bigger places though are just fantastic, with lots of history and interesting facts about each place. Plus details of the population numbers in 1880. So why did the 1854 CD apparently appeal to so few people? The truth is that we did not effectively promote the CD on the American genealogy mailing lists because we simply did not know which ones to mention it on. This is where you wonderful supporters of Archive CD Books really can make a difference. There *must* be some of you folks out there who are active on American Lists and I would like to appeal to those of you who are to try and give this new CD a bit of a push, it really does deserve to reach a wider audience. I was told earlier this week by an American supporter of The Project that this 1884 CD might prove more popular, simply because there were more and more people pouring into the USA and creating new towns and villages all over the country. Time will tell. The web pages are at http://wwww.acrchivecdbooks.com Use the online catalogue and the site map to get to the USA pages You all might like to take a look at the latest releases page as well (I've updated that three times *already* today). ======================================================================== The Project is all about making CDs of old and rare books available to genealogists and historians at a reasonable price. It is a "user supported" project. Some of these books have been kindly lent to the project by various individuals, some from County Record Offices, museums, family history societies and libraries, and some which we have purchased. All of them are old and rare. Many of those books purchased from book dealers (no matter how expensive they were) are subsequently given away to one of the above organisations. We all gain ======================================================================== Best wishes to you all -- Rob Dewsall ARCHIVE CD BOOKS - old books for genealogists reproduced on CD Mailing list : CDBOOKS-L@rootsweb.com (for discussions) Weekly News : CDBOOKS-NEWS-L@rootsweb.com (weekly announcements & news) E-mail : enquiries@archivecdbooks.com Web : http://www.archivecdbooks.com _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Any information gratefully received derek wilcox

Hello, ListFolks! Our family needs your help in locating a "St. Joseph's Cemetery" somewhere in the Boston area... our elderly Aunt has asked that when her time comes, she be buried with her parents. I have an envelope (empty) with the return address of John W. Lavery and Son, Funeral Directors, 54 A Street, South Boston and 869 Dorchester Ave, Dorchester. Typed on the back of the envelope is the name of my grandmother and the date of her interrment (9 Jan 1916). Also named is an infant interred in the same plot (7 June 1911) Above these names is the name of my grandfather and the words "St Joseph". I know that my grandfather is buried beside my grandmother - and what is frustrating is this - I visited that very cemetery four or five years ago, and can't for the life of me remember the name of the town it's in! All I remember is that the cemetery is located in a lovely suburban area off a rather splendid boulevard. My grandparents lived in South Boston, so that should narrow down the "geography" a bit. In the back of my mind (such as it is!) I'm thinking that maybe "St Joseph's" has been renamed. Many thanks for helping! Marge Reid

I am looking for additional information on the following persons: REMI LANGELIER (deceased) previously married to Emily living at 275 D Boston, MA in Boston Directory 1890. I believe there is some connection to H. J. LANGELIER Co. at 993 Termont in Boston. My gr grandmother was LOUISE LANGELIER (LYNCH) - I believe Remi and Emily are her parents. I have been told this family was French Canadian. Louise may have been born in 1860s in Canadian. Could someone look up this family in earlier Boston Directories? Does anyone have any information on this family? Thanks so much for your attention! --- Sincerely DeAnne --- Researching Surnames: Driscoll, Jones, Langelier, Lynch, Moore, Stevens
