I checked my previous postings to this List and was reminded that .. that was the last name of my husband's grandmother's step-father - back in London, England, ~1900. I just found that out a few months ago. I did a quick check at census information, and it's not a popular name. There were only about 45 people with the name in MA in 1900, and less in 1910 and 1920. A few of them born in England. Betty (near Lowell, MA) (I have not been able to find out whether Annie Mary Magdalene McLOUGHLIN / McLAUGHLIN had any relatives in MA when she migrated here from London. Or whether she had any relatives come over here after she did. From memory, she had 3 older sisters, and I don't know whether they all remained in England. Her father had died when she was a baby. She married in Waltham to James GAVIN.) ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2009 18:16:49 -0500 From: DEAN & KAREN TREARCHIS <dktrearchis@comcast.net> Subject: [GENMASSACHUSETTS] "Irish American Catholic Genealogy Lecture" at Pollard Library, Lowell, MA, Feb.21 To: MAMIDDLE@rootsweb.com, GENMASSACHUSETTS@rootsweb.com, newengland-societies-request@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <1BE4B9EB-8277-428E-A9C9-64FB2B1BC33B@comcast.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed I received a notice today that the Pollard Library, Lowell,MA is presenting Michael Brophy,"Irish American Catholic Genealogy Lecture" on Sat., Feb. 21, 2009, 10 AM.
