Hello, I just wanted to say that this query is also on the Maine List, and I just offered some information there. I did not find these ladies in 1870 or 1880. An FYI is that there were less than 700 CHASE people in Maine in 1870, and almost 2000 CHASE people in Maine in 1880.

Of course, the deaths are only listed in the SSDI if the deceased was receiving funds from the SSA at the time of death, and if the death was reported to the SSA. A more intensive search MIGHT uncover a death location, if you can find an obit or something like that. Remember that obits are sometimes published in the place of birth, as well as the place of death. I'd look there, or the place where the deceased lived a goodly part of his/her life.

And I'd like to ask if there is a way to find out which town or city they died in -- without driving to Boston, or without writing to the Soc. Sec. Admin. Office. Carleton HUTCHINSON, born Mar. 1870 MA, died in Aug. 1962. The SSDI does not offer any information on a town or city in MA where he either resided or died. Joseph KERR, born ~1863 Canada / P.Q., lived in MA, from 1880's lived in WA from 1901, probably died in MA during 1950's. The obituary for Robert, his brother in WA in 1950, stated that Joseph was then in MA. He would have been in his late 80's at the time. I was reminded this week that the information on deaths at the SSDI doesn't start until 1962. (I used the SSDI at www.familysearch.org ) (Both of my grandfathers died almost exactly one year from each other in Nov. 1960 and Nov. 1961, and neither come up in the SSDI.) I'm hoping answers to this question will help other researchers who are looking for death information from the 1950's and 1960's.

Hi again, I just went to the archives of a few Lists and discovered I haven't mentioned the descendants of one set of my ancestors in a long time. I don't have time today, but I'll try to type up a brief summary of their descendants this week. Or, if anyone has a question about them, I'll look in my mother's notes. Robert KERR and Elizabeth HENDERSON were born in Canada in 1827. They married there and had 5 children. They and 4 of their children came down to MA in the ~1875 to 1885 timeframe. I can't find out what happened to one daughter in Canada. Children were: William, Hannah Jane (missing), Mary Ann, Joseph, and Robert. William KERR married in MA in 1876 to Elizabeth HANNAH. They basically remained in the Malden and Everett area. Their children were: Louise, Joseph, George, Fred (d. A.18), Harriett, and Ruby. (Elizabeth had HANNAH siblings who also lived in MA.) I have only basic information on the spouses of the above children. As per my other posting this morning, I took a quick look at the names of the spouses, and I'm not finding the YOUNG surname mentioned. So, I suspect that Arthur YOUNG, alive in 1950 in MA, was a relative of the MacLEAN families in MA. Robert KERR in WA State died in 1950; his obituary mentioned a nephew, Arthur YOUNG. Robert was in his 80's, so his nephew might have been in his 40's to 60's. Robert's wife and sister-in-law (wife of brother) seem to have been 2 MacLEAN cousins, with ties to Nova Scotia. THINK SPRING ! Betty (near Lowell, MA) Remember to check the archives of all the Lists and Boards for your surnames and place-names. And, please remember to check the on-line auctions for for your surnames and place-names.

Hello, Just a quick query to ask whether anyone is researching the YOUNG families which lived in Greater Boston in the 1880 to 1950 timeframe. I'm looking for more information on an Arthur YOUNG, born in 1920's in MA. The reason I'm interested in him is that the 1950 obituary for Robert KERR in Washington State said that he was survived by a nephew, Arthur YOUNG in MA. Robert was in his 80's when he passed. And, I don't know about this man and how he is related to the KERR family. One of my suspicions is that he was a nephew of his late wife, Mrs. Margaret (MacLEAN) KERR (from a Nova Scotia family). The 1880 census shows 2 Arthur YOUNGS born ~1880. But, a 1910 and 1920 census shows an Arthur born ~1885. I believe the family I'm interested in learning about lived in the Malden and Everett area. And hopefully the Arthur born ~1923 and dying in 2008 was the nephew I'm looking for, and was part of one of those families in Greater Boston. The SSDI shows an Arthur YOUNG, b1923, d2008. Betty (near Lowell, MA) FYI: Robert KERR and Elizabeth HENDERSON were born in Canada in 1827, shortly after their parents arrived in the Prov. of Quebec. Their oldest son, William, came down to MA ~1874 and married here. One of their daughters, Mary Ann, came down ~1879, and married here to William McINNIS. Robert and Elizabeth came down in 1880's/1890's (?), and died here in 1904 and 1902. (William died in 1905.) I believe their 2 youngest, sons, Robert and Joseph KERR, came down with them. They married 2 MacLEAN cousins in MA, and in ~1901 moved to Washington State. The 2 wives died in the 1920's. Robert remained there and died in 1950. The obituary stated that Joseph had returned to MA and was living in Dorchester. (I will check my notes to see if William KERR and his children had any YOUNG in-laws.) (Robert and Joseph did not have children.) (I am missing one sister, and I don't know what happened to Hannah Jane KERR in the Prov. of Quebec.) This extended KERR family was always in the Malden, Everett, Somerville, Medford area.

I wonder if any of the kind subscribers on this list can put me in touch with Kelly Hardy. Some few years back Kelly responded to my questions for help in relation to the Brown family. Kelly indicated then that she "would love to hear from me" - but sadly, all my messages have been unanswered. The only e-mail address I have is kylnh1227@aol.com but messages to that address bounce back. I believe Kelly is an astute researcher and I need her help to advance my search. I will be eternally grateful if some kind person can assist with her new and current e-mail address. With thanks, James.

To fill in some blanks, Achorn Road is near the town of Dunbeath in Latheron parish in the very far north of Scotland. It's about 30 miles south of Wick, so they are some distance apart. By the 1880s though people moved back and forth from Latheron area to Wick much more frequently than in the prior decades, as the roads in the county had improved greatly, and the area was prospering during a huge boom in herring fishing. By the end of the 1890s the boom was turning into a bust (don't they all?) and most of the young people of this area were seeing nothing but a dim future on the farm, and even that seemed bleak. So Caithness ended up with a "lost generation". There was a huge migration out of Caithness into the cities of the UK but mostly into Canada, the US and to a lesser extent Australia. Family tree wise, Angus G's father was named James, whose father was named Angus, whose father was named James! Thanks to all of your shared efforts and kind contribution of time, I have a very good picture of Angus and his son Robert now, even a picture! I am writing to the Army records office to see if I can come up with some additional details of his service during WW II, and possibly his disposition post-war. Thanks again.
