Surnames: Ford/Bradley/Radley/Conley/McNair Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/REX.2ACIB/3842 Message Board Post: I am looking for information on the family of Charles Ford from South Bristol, Ontario County of New York. In the 1880 South Bristol Federal Census on page 22 it lists Ford, Charles 23 Belle 20 Edith M 8/12 In the same household these people are living. McNair, Ella 24 Pearl 1 I do not know if Pearl is a male or female child. Belle went on to marry a Conley relative, Oliver Conley, in 1890. I think Belle's maiden name is either Bradley or Radley depending which marriage record for the children you look at as I have both names. As far as I know Charles and Belle had a child, Bert J. Ford, who was born on August 6, 1884. Bert J. Ford died on June 14, 1947. In his obituary he is listed as Bert J. Ford Conley. This is the same in the 1900 Federal Census for the Town of Jerusalem of Yates County he is listed living in the Charles Cook household as a servant as Bert Conley. This Cook household is listed one family above the Oliver and Belle Conley family. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

He has resided in Pittsburg, Wheeling and Cincinnati, and has been employed for a number of years in different iron mills as an engineer. Mr. Ford has been engaged at the Jefferson Iron Works for the past 20 years, in charge of the engins in the rolling mill.

William Ford was born on May 20, 1799 in VA. The first reference that we find to William Ford is with a deed recorded in 1827 in Clark County Kentucky. The following year William married Malinda Judy. They had the following children: Jennie, Dave, Frank, Will, Jim, Martin Van Buren, Tom and finally Dock (Alexander). William died January 21, 1845 in Clark Co., Kentucky, probably in a mill accident and was buried at Sugar Ridge Presbyterian Church. Any assistance with primary or secondary documentation of these lines greatly appreciated. Always happy to swap files. Walt

Do you know about my Ford genealogy book. Her grandparents are in the book.

Where in California was James Monroe Ford born? My husbands grandfather, Stephen Speedy Ford, was born in Richmond, Madison County, Kentucky (1824). He married my husband's grandmother in Yreka, Ca. in 1879. He was twenty five years older than Pluma Augusta Cornish when they married. We discovered Stephen Ford must have been married before as there is a plot listing a Mrs. Ford on the right side of Stephens gravesite( no marker or first name however). Pluma Ford's gravesite is on the left side of Stephen's grave. Stephen Ford was a Mexican War veteran and received a pension from the government and when he died, Pluma Ford received his pension. This has been a mystery to us since the beginning of our research on my husbands family. Prior to marrying my husbands grandmother, Stephen Ford had property in Lassen County, Ca. in Grasshopper Valley. It is near Susanville, Ca. He was very active in political affairs. He was a great horseman, breeding and raising some of the best racers in that part of the country. I would certainly like to make some connection and learn more about his first family. If you think there could be any connection, please contact me by e-mail. In researching Kentucky records, I have never been able to find any info on who his parents were. His middle name of Speedy is a family name. Hope to hear from you. The Ford family is white. [email protected] wrote: This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

The following information on obtaining public records could contain a wealth of information for your family roots. The lady who shared it with me had a grandfather who worked on the Panama Canal in the early 1900's. Her request for information took some time as it had to be redirected to other agencies but the final outcome was worth it. Here's what she told me she received.... My grandfather's file contained his original application to the Isthmian Canal Commission, in his own hand; letters of recommendation, a complete record of his employment up to the time of his application to the Commission, and a lot of other copies of documents relevant to his employment. He worked in Panama less than one year (returning upon the birth of my father), but still his file contained a great deal of correspondence. Hope this helps !!!
