Posted on: Lake Co. Co Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Co/Lake/10269 Surname: CROW, GREENFIELD, MICHIGAN ------------------------- George Greenfield came to Leadville before 1880, but I cannot find him in the census index. He married Evaline Crow in Michigan, Onondago County, and I have found them in 1860 in MI along with brother John and James. John stayed in MI, James and George GREENFIELD came to Leadville. Any clues to how to find in the census greatly appreciated. I found George in the city directory for Leadville in 1892 listed as George D. Greenfield.

Boy for some reason Sue, the name of Sid Olds is ringing in my head. Does that mean anything to you? Gail

Gail, My Great grandparents, James and Mary Olds bought the house at 509 E.9th street sometime in the early 1900's and probably lived there till my Great Grandmother passed away in 1943. She said it was a three-room house, and they added 3 more rooms and a parlor. In the narrative you have by Eldred Tresize, he mentions my Grandmother and also my Great Grandmother. My Grandmother, Hazel, was born on July 20, 1893 in Leadville. She attended the 9th Street school and after graduation from High School in 1912. Hazel and her friend, Eva McDonald went to Greeley Teachers College. It's my understanding that in those days after 2 years of college they could become teachers. My Grandmother went to Sterling to teach in 1914. Sue Reid

Also, read the bottom of my last message as it is a forward... Gail

Sue, can you give me a time that your family lived on E. 9th? I have added that info to Leadville 100 Years on the web page.

Am I doing something wrong? The Lake County Web page looks terrific. Thanks for all your hard work. It was exciting to find my Great Uncle, Frederick E. Olds listed under World War I veterans. I don't know if you need this information but he was in the 308th Infantry. My Great grandparents, James & Mary Olds were from Cornwall, England and he was a miner. They lived at 509 E. Ninth St. They had 3 children, Hazel, Frederick or Ted as he was called and Sidney Olds. Hazel, my grandmother said their best friends were the Sam Dorans. Also other friends were Ila Weber and Eva McDonald. My Grandmother wrote a short story about her life in Leadville as a young girl and I will get it together and send it to you, if that's something you'd be interested in. If anyone has any information on the OLDS family I would love to hear from you. Sue Reid Mesa, Arizona

Dawn, Yes therre was a typo. Margaret is a Farrell. Sorry. Michael ----- Original Message ----- From: Dawn Hux Sent: Saturday, March 17, 2001 8:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [COLAKE] Fw: Holland Thanks for the info. Maybe John Holland was the husband of Margaret Holland. Since he died in 1895, there is enough time for Margaret to remarry and say in the 1900 Census she has been married one year to Isaac Porter. One of the Holland children is also named John. Margaret also said she had 10 children and 8 were living so maybe the Holland no first name is a child. I wonder if the Margaret Harrell is really a Farrell? My Catherine Farrell had a sister named Margaret, maybe she was named after the Margaret that died in 1900 at age 75. Well I can see I have some new clues to work with. Thanks a million.

Dear Gail. If this site doesn't work please let me know as there are dozens. I think military sites would be best as I typed in C. A. C. in a general gov't site and found 74! Lynn

In Evergreen Cemetery I have the following: all Holland Infant, Catherine, George, Jemy, Jeremiah, Johanna, Margaret, Mary, Patrick, and William. All but one are either buried in the Catholic or the Catholic Free section of Evergreen. Gail

Dear Gail, Re:Military Acronyms I used search and found a site of Military acronyms and one in particular called megaterms, but I couldn't download it. Do you want to try and see if you can get it via computer? I'll go ahead and try some others. I can guess on a few, but I would want to be sure. C.A.C. is probably Civil Air Corp or some such. We're military on all sides and if you can't get this site we can find someone who knows. Lynn and Dan

Yes, that is what I want... I figured the F.A. was Field Artillery but I don't know what a lot of them are. Having never been in the service or really associated with anyone who has, I don't know some of the ranks and definitely not units or divisions or whatever..;-) Gail

As for the abbreviationa, do you mean the ones under "division" in the WW! section? If so there are numerous sites about the military and Dan says he can look these up. i.e. QMC? That is Quartermaster Corp. MP is Military Police. If these are what you want, let us know and we'l lwrite them down and go hunting. Good work on the page, we have web tv and it shows up nice here, too.

Posted on: Lake Co. Co Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/genbbs.cgi/USA/Co/Lake/10268 Surname: KELLY ------------------------- You mention KELLY in the surnames but not in the message so I was wondering if you would know of a Edward KELLY from Leadville, Lake County Colorado. He was married to a Bridget DOLON or DOLAN.They had a daughter (my great-grandmother)Annie in 1890. If there is a connection or you might have any information please let me know Thank you

Hi, I entered some more new surnames again tonight and I am seeing a few duplications of the same surnames...Doyle, Nolan, Loftus and others. I also noticed O'Leary, if this is the O'Leary family that had the dairy, they are on my Leadville High School Alumni mail list. I hope that we connected Dawn and Elizabeth tonight... Wishing you all luck in your search and I will get to the cemetery lookups...

Posted on: Lake Co. Co Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Co/Lake/10266 Surname: HALLY, KELLY, BULGER, CULLEN, CHAPMAN, CUMINISKY, COYLE ------------------------- These are the surnames of my mother's family,(HALLY - BULGER) and those of my husband's family (CULLEN - COYLE). They all lived in Leadville, Lake County beginning from 1879 to various departures. One decendent still lives there. My grandfather James M.HALLY practiced medicine while my grandmother operated a book store across the street from the Church of the Ammunciation on Poplar Street (c. 1880 - 1886) The rest were miners and probably a John Cullen worked for the newspaper, Information on any of the above is much appreciated.

Thanks Gail, I looked briefly will look it over more closely when I get a few minutes. It looks GREAT! Thanks for the time you devote to it!
