So the Frank is probably her father - like I said I can't see original image. I have also seen census info where the census taker has put down the 1st person - 'head of household' and then when adding other members instead of writing down the last name, has just drawn a line to indicate that it is the same name. My g grandmother was living with her son-in-law on one of the census so her last name should have been different than his and it wasn't. Still looking for Anna's birth.

Anna's parents (going by marriage cert) are Frank Sheehan and Margaret Peart. I dont know where the name Peart came from. As Margaret was Clifford before she married Daniel Sheehan in 1884. Anna was living with parents Frank & Margaret in 1900 and in 1910 she was living with Margaret her mother (widow). The census are totally confusing. As in 1900 Margaret was born in Scotland. In 1910 she was born in Ireland. When Margaret remarried in 1915 to James Peckham she stated her name was Margaret SHEAN, Father James Clifford. So I know I have the right women. in US City Directories MA Attleboro 1890-91 it states that Frank Peart (removed from Town)???? Thankyou for any help you can offer Margaret. I am totally at a loss.

Hopefully it will make sense to someone. I have a Anna K Quinn living in Providence RI with her (stepmum) Margaret Peckham and Anna's Husband Joseph Quinn and 3 children. Now when looking for Anna marriage in 1912 she states her parents where Frank Sheehan & Margaret Peart. She also says she was born in 1887 Massachusetts, but I cant find a birth record for her. Now here comes the difficult bit. The Margaret she was living with in 1920 was born in Ireland. She first married Daniel SHEEHAN in 1884 in Boston MA. Then she married James Peckham in 1915 in Boston MA. James died in 1919 RI. going by the info I learned from Anna's marriage, I decided to look for her in census (as I couldnt find Anna or Margaret before 1920) I found a Margaret Peart living with Frank Peart and daughter Anna K Peart in Attleborough MA. I know these are of the same family. But could someone tell why the name change.??? I couldnt find a marriage for Frank Sheehan to Margaret/or Frank Peart to Margaret... Can anyone shed any light????

I am wondering if St Peter's in Dorchester is still open, with all the Roman Catholic Churches that have closed over the last several years. If so does anyone know what section of Dorchester its in. When the church first opened and ita address? and name of current Pastor.? My grandparents were married in that church on April 17 1902, . They were Patrick Bradley dob May 10 1864 in Co Donegal and Mary Ann O'Donnell dob July 28 1873 also in Co Donegal. Patrick and Mary both died in Salem Ma Patrick 1931, and Mary 1958 and are buried at St Mary's in Salem MA(as are most of my Irish family. Thank you Barb

Hi Barb and all, Fair question. The efficient way to get answers is often to google it. Try "St. Peter Parish" and see.
