Reply for David Owen Nicholson: >From a 1902 Boston City directory: Nicholson, Owen J., died Oct 31, 1901 No widow or address is listed for Owen, nor do any persons named Nicholson show an address on Avon Place Regards, Tom
Would any kind lister having this census record do a look-up for me for Owen J. Nicholson, possibly located at 38 Avon Place? With many thanks. In Peace: David Owen Nicholson
Samuel Bacon FROST was conscripted "right off the streets of Boston" in 1864, so the family story goes but his whereabouts for the next 10 years are a mystery, until he turns up in Texas in 1874. I'd appreciate any information on the FROST family. Can anyone tell me if there's a conscription register similar to the enlistment register and, if so, where could I find it? Thanks for any information. Jan

TINA ...... More on the Costello's from fellow internet'ers. --------- Forwarded message ---------- From: costello13@juno.com To: tandt.costello@ntlworld.com Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2001 16:57:43 -0500 Subject: Costello family from the North East England Message-ID: <20011105.202608.-209305.3.costello13@juno.com> . The COSTELLOs and COSTELLOEs are the decendents of the Anglo-Norman name de Nangle, who arrived soon after the "conquest" (read, year 1066), and settled in Connacht. The name is recorded in the "Annals of the Four Masters", with references, dating from the year 1193, when the name had changed to Oistealb. The name futher evolved to MacGoisdelbh and subsequently, to MacGoisdealbh. Later anglicized to MacCostello. Their stronghold was established in the Barony of Costello, near Ballaghaderreen then in Co Mayo, but now in Co Roscommon. From: Lynstello@aol.comTo: COSTELLO-L@rootsweb.comDate: 17 Jul 2001 20:44:44 -0600Subject: [welcome] Re: Family nameLois:Am not at all resistive to Italian ties in the name, however all verified sources state that the name came into Ireland through the Cambro(Welsh)-Norman knight, Gilbert deAngulo (I take note of the deAngulo reference in your E-Mail). Gilbert deAngulo was Norman, and was one of Richard DeClaire's vassals, His ancestors were from Normandy, and came with William the Conqueror in the Norman Invasion of England in 1066. He settled in Angle, Pembrokshire in Wales, and in 1172 came with Richard deClaire, Earl of Pembroke to Ireland in response to the pleas for help from Dermod MacMorrough. King of Lienster. He was awarded lands in Lienster, and his grandson, Costelo Oge deAngelo, known as "MacOisdealbh" (in Gaelic) participated in the invasion of Connaught in 1235, where he founded the Norman Barony of MacOisdealbh in Co. Mayo. "MacOisdealbh" was later Anglicised to MacCostello. All this is verified in the Annals of the Four Masters, and other similarly confirmed sources.None-the-less, I would be interested in receiving any information which you might have, that would refute the above. An open mind is a good thing to have!You can respond directly to me at: Lystello@AOL.com/ Regards: Bob Costello Ed: One of my Costello correspondents sent me the information you have developed on the ancient origins of our family name. I have been doing a lot of research on this subject, both on the internet and by visiting the University of Notre Dame library in South Bend recently. Basically you have the general background of the Costello name, except it is somewhat garbled. I have cross-checked through a number of sources, including Notre Dame's extensive collection of rare Irish books. The following is the history of our name confirmed through a number of sources: In the lare 1160s two Irish kings, Dermot MacMorrough of Leinster, and Tiernan O"Rourke were feuding over O"Rourke's wife. O"Rourke, with the help of King Rory(?) O"Connor of Connaught got the upper hand, and MacMorrough fled to England seeking the help of Henry II, King of England. Henry was busy fighting with the King of France over his holdings in Normandy, and referred MacMorrough to his Cambro (Welsh) Norman lords is Wales, particularly Richard DeClaire, Earl of Pembroke, commonly known as "Strongbow". MacMorrough offered Strongbow his daughter's hand in marriage plus the successorship to his Kingdom in Leinster. Strongbow saw this as chance to obtain a Kingship in Ireland, out from under the heavy hand of Henry II, plus marriage to MacMorrough's very beautiful daughter; so he gathered together a group of his fellow Cambro(Welsh)-Norman vassals, and invaded Ireland to help MacMurrough. These Normans invaded Ireland in five waves between 1168 and 1172. Among the Norman knights assisting Strongbow was Gilbert deAngulo, from Angle in Pembrokshire, and his two sons, Jocelyn and Costelo deAngulo. The deAngulos settled in Co. Meath (in Leinster) and established Baronies there after their successful invasion. In 1235, a group of young Norman lords from Leinster decided to invade Connaught (northwestern Ireland) where they defeated one of O"Connor's decendants, and established baronies. Many of these Normans intermarried with the lrish, and, as the old saying went "became more Irish than the the Irish themselves", speaking Gaelic instead of French-Norman. One of these young lords was called by his Gaelic name "MacOisdealbh", meaning "Son of Costelo". He was the grandson of Gilbert deAngulo. By that time the deAngulos were known as "Nangle" in Ireland (This probably was because they came from Angle in Wales). MacOisdealbh established a barony in Co Mayo (in Connaught), which lasted for almost 400 years. Eventually the name "MacOisdealbh" became angelicized to "MacCostello" and ultimately the "Mac" was dropped. (The Costellos were the first of the Norman invaders to adopt the "Mac" prefix by the way). This is basically the origins of our name. Hope this helps you in your work on our name. Regards: Bob Costello Breckenridge,CO P.S. Incidentally, my grandfather Michael J. Costello came to America from Kilkelly, Co. Mayo in about 1877, and settled in Racine, Wisconsin, so we are probably distantly related. TINA ...........

Hello, my name is Heike Carlsson, I´m living near Hamburg in Germany. For many years, I´m researching my family-history in Sweden and Germany- now I´ve got a question to the Boston list: I´m looking for Gustaf Adolf Johansson who was born at 1891 August,1st in Vissefjärda parish/Sweden. His parents were Johan August Carlsson and Mathilda, born Petersdotter. He left Sweden from the port of Gothenborg July 25 th, 1911 with the ship s/s Bayardo and his first destination was Hull/England. October 3rd, 1911 he arrived with the ship R.M.S. Franconia in Boston.He was accompgnied by a friend in the same age: John Johansson (no, they were not related!) who was born in Vissefjärda, too. I´ve got a copy of the passengers list: They wanted to go to a friend: August Ni(c)klasson 653 Massave. (or Massachusetts again?) Boston/Massachusetts Gustaf Adolf wasn´t found in the census 1920/Massachusetts. I know, I´m searching the needle in hay but perhaps there is anyone with an idea?

Would very much appreciate any census information for Owen J. Nicholson of Boston. Thank you. David
Hi , I noticed Bob is researching HANSEN/ HANSON in the Boston area . I know through research that there were many. 1880 my g-grandfather Herman Magnus HANSEN(born 1868 / 1869 Denmark) arrived in the US likely with his parents (unknown) considering he was only 10 or 11 years old , no naturalization papers have ever been found for him so it has been summized that his naturalization occured through his father's citizenship. I have been unable to find parents . In 1900 census of Boston, he was m. 3 years to g-grandmother Dorthea J. Pettersen (born in Lenvik,Troms,Norway 1873) at 303 Norfolk Ave., surname spelled by enumerator was HANSON and again in 1920 Everett,Middlesex,MA at Mt.Pleasant Veiw St., again spelled with "O" instead of E. Their children were : Frank - b. 28 March 1900 Boston,MA (my grandfather) d. 25 Nov. 1978 He 1st m. Hazel Winchester between 1920-21 - and resided at 5 Nichols St, Chelsea, MA .... they had a son : Truman -- where abouts unknown . Peter b. May 1903 , died I think 1948 and is buried with parents at Woodlawn Cemetery ,Everett ,MA He was self -employed as a painter/wallpaperer , but during the depression worked for the WPA . m. I believe Doris Pratt ??? Had a son Peter and 2 daughters . and this in a nutshell is what I have on the HANSENs in my family. Do you suppose there could be any link?
