My 3rd grt grandfather was a George POPE b. abt 1817 in Ireland. His death certificate lists his father's birthplace as Ireland and his mother's birthplace as England which, if true, is an important clue. He came to the USA in 1833, probably through Canada. Occupation: Tailor He came to New York (perhaps Albany 1st) then settled in NYC. George and his wife Jane Emslie had six kids, all born in NYC: Jane A. Pope Overin, b. ca.1840 d. Nov. 19, 1880 Emily H. Pope Fleming, b. ca. 1843/4, d. ??? Louisa Pope, b. ca. 1846/7, d. ??? (after 1905) William E. Pope, b. 1850 d. July 1850 George Washington Pope, Feb. 7, 1855-May 2, 1926 Glorianna Pope, Mar. 2, 1860-Mar. 5, 1863 If you are familiar with George I'd appreciate hearing from you.
