Hello Tami, Thank you for your offer for look ups on Ancestry. I am interested in the Immigration of this family.. probably abt 1869. Edwin MOODY (B 1829) & Sarah ( B 1834) MOODY, Born in England. Their family. Edwin Robert 1857, Alfred 1860, Emily 1862 and Jesse 1868, also a mother in law Elizabeth Moody ( b 1815) all in England. I found them in 1881 at Wilson, Niagara. NY. Their occupations are basket makers or willow workers. Edwin Robert Moody is on the 1911 Census at North Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I don't know if you can find a marriage for Alfred MOODY b 1860, he has children, Arthur b 1882, Winfred 1883, Chester 1885, Mildrid 1889 and Wilfred 1890. all born New York State. Alfred is a widower in 1900.

Hi Tami, I'd really appreciate it if you could look for a John Francis Donnelly that was born in Ireland in 1899 (I think) and died abt. 1926 in New York. I don't have access to ancestry.com and I didn't feel like joining to look for this person. He is the grandfather of a close friend of mine. If you find him, let me know please. Occupation was: Policeman I was told. Maybe this will help. I know he was married before he died but I don't know when. In any event, he should show up in the New York census I hope. Thank you so much (and my friend thanks you too!).

Hello Tami, Thanks for your offer. I would be happy to find how and when my ancestor went in America. He was born in Switzerland in 1849 and died in San Francisco in 1893. I have no idea why he came in America. Could you, please have a look in the immigration databases. Who knows with a liitle luck. His name Charles (or Karl) SAUTER.

Cathie I checked the San Francisco Municipal Reports of 1902-03, 1903-04 and 1904-05, and no Condon, was listed as working on San Francisco Fire Department Truck # 7. So do not know how his name showed up in the photo. ;-) George The Schafers <[email protected]> wrote: Well thank you, I'll lookup what station that it might be! On the city directory stuff sort of strange because Michael had a brother Cornelius who died in 1896 in a ship wreak as did the father Frederick 1894. I your Cornelius listed wasn't from the same family but who knows going way back. Keep in mind I have almost every year from the city directories on Michael. I did see a James W. Condon listed as a fireman 1901 which would fit. As for last name Cornelius (the others you listed that's definitely isn't ours) I was hoping for a James, Lawrence or George Condon listed in the 1904-7 time period. You see I've never heard anything about the other brothers besides Cornelius. I'm not sure if they die or take off. None our listed on any obit that I have but I do need to find a few. I do know my ggg came over about 1876-1880 and then in 1880 his wife came over with their five boys who where from 8-18 years of age. Frederick Condon - Sea man worked a lot with the Fire Dept.

If I can only get this crazy Condon puzzle straight!!! "Here's a strange story of research- one day on my lunch break I had gone into a local library as I often did.

For some reason I turned around and my hand went right to a book in the Northern California section, which I had never been searching in that area. SF was as high in the state as I had searched. Away I opened it and the page opened to people who died in the area. Right there it said "Cornelius Condon died in 1896 in a Ship wreck". I couldn't believe it, it was like someone turned me around to find the book. Later on after getting the articles from the wreck it lead to finding his father my gggf Frederick Condon who also died two years earlier in a ship wreck. So I've always had this feeling this family story wants to be told!!!" Have a great day! Cathie On Aug 22, 2006, at 12:04 AM, [email protected] wrote: > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.

Hello SF list, I am on the mailing list for the U.S. Mint and just received this notice. The U.S. Mint is now selling these coins to be sent out/issued in December, 2006 in limited quantities. The Old Mint in San Francisco, aka "Granite Lady" survived the 1906 earthquake and a set of commemorative coins are fine looking indeed. If you are interested, please click on the link below for more information. Needless to say, I have pre-ordered a few of the silver proofs of the Old Mint. I'd sure like one of the gold coins I must admit! ----------------------------------------------------- For the second commemorative coin program of 2006, the United States Mint is paying tribute to the San Francisco Old Mint, celebrating the instrumental role it played in the recovery and rebuilding of a great American city. Public Law 109-230, approved by President George W. Bush on June 15, 2006, calls for the production and release of two commemorative coins to honor the history and legacy of the building that became known as the "Granite Lady," in this, the 100th anniversary of the terrible tragedy which befell San Francisco in the spring of 1906. In 1852 President Millard Fillmore approved an Act of Congress establishing a branch of the United States Mint in San Francisco to convert miners’ gold from the California gold rush into coins. The San Francisco Old Mint building, the second building in San Francisco to house the United States Mint there, was designed by architect A.B. Mullett who also designed the United States Department of the Treasury building and the Eisenhower Executive Office Building. The solid construction of the "Granite Lady" enabled it to survive the 1906 earthquake and fire, making it the only financial institution able to operate immediately after the earthquake as the Treasury for disaster relief funds for the city of San Francisco.
