    2. Don McGovern
    3. Could anyone with access to the NYC Marriage CD or access to the NYC Marriage Index on microfilm please lookup a marriage for me. I am looking for the following: Bride: Anna or Mary Deinhardt Groom: John McGovern If you find anything close to the above please let me know. Does not have to be exact matches. Married approximately 1868 to 1875. Their first child was born about 1875 (according to the 1880 census), but you never know if a couple might have lost a child or two. I will be happy to trade services. I have a Ship Passenger Index for NYC Arrivals 1820 - 1850 that I can do a look up.

    3. I am fairly new at this so have very little info. I believe my great grandmother resided in Mew york as her last residence. My greatgrandmother was Sarah Pryor(as shown on my grandmother's ss application). At some point she married a Mr. Dugan and had a son Pat. Then she married William Dawson. They had 6 children, Rose, Helen, Veronica, Ethel, Margarite and William. My father said she was from Freehold, NJ. I just found a Sarah E. Prior, age 15, born in PA, in the 1880 census in Camden,NJ whichcould be her, living with her mother Ellen Prior, age 52, tailor. The ages and areas are close enough to be possible.

    3. It's such a beautiful day here in the northeast U.S. that I think I'll take a ride up to Calvary Cemetery and look up some relatives (only a researcher would understand!) Does anyone know if the gates are open, and do they allow people in even when the office itself is closed? Thanks for a quick reply, Agnes

    2. Dear Pam, As to your inquiry as to church marriages, they were not required before a certain year. I believe it was about 1914. The United States was a missionary field served by priests from Ireland and as a missionary country there was a shortage of priests. Cathy

    1. RE: [IRISH-NYC] HELP!!! Irish Catholic Customs?
    2. Maureen
    3. Years ago customs varied in Catholic Cemeteries .... My husband's grandparents are in the same cemetery, but not in the same part. He was Protestant, was not buried in the part consecrated by the Catholic bishop. Other Catholic Cemeteries would not bury anyone not Catholic, made no provision for that, so oftentimes both were buried in another cemetery in order to be together.

    3. Look for an annulment for the first marriage. Today these are decided by a group of priests in Brooklyn. Perhaps if you contact the Brooklyn diocese office they can direct you to the correct office. I applied for an annulment in 1973 and everything was handled by my local Monsignor so I do not have the address. Wish I could be of more help. -----Original Message----- From: Pam Jeter <pjeter@psyber.com> To: IRISH-NEW-YORK-CITY-L@rootsweb.com <IRISH-NEW-YORK-CITY-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Friday, May 03, 2002 8:52 PM Subject: [IRISH-NYC] HELP!!!

    3. 1. In the eyes of the church a civil wedding is not a bidding marriage. i.e. you can be married again in the church. 2. You would have a Catholic burial, but not necessary to have a record of that (death is not a sacrament so no record) I don't know if they keep records of last rights though if the person got them. I know in 1982 my dad was buried in a Catholic cemetery although he was not Catholic.

    1. [IRISH-NYC] Updates to List Website
    2. I've uploaded the July 1857 transcriptions of the "Irish-American" to the website. It's all fully searchable from the home page. New to the site is the Newspapers page. It has a listing of old NYC Irish newspapers. I've only listed the New York State Library and New York Public Library information for anyone interested in obtaining these films. Note: the films do *not* circulate from the NYPL! But you can find many of these newspapers at libraries throughout the US. Your best bet may be to check your state's library. Also, be sure to drop by the Surname Database. There's been a lot of submissions from people who are not subbed to the list. So you may find that connection you're looking for! http://www.irishinnyc.freeservers.com Take care, Tracy

    2. Marilyn Phillips
    3. Hi Pam, I imagine you'll get a bunch of resposes to this. If your grandother was Catholic and was married by a JP in 1926, the Catholic Church would not recognize the marriage and often refused to baptised any children of the union in the church. Unless this husband died, she would have to get a civil divorce to end the civil legal aspect of the marriage before she could remarry as far as the state is concerned. Not so for the church, because they don't recognize a civil marriage. Now, she could have just lived with the second husband, but it would have nothing to do with religion. Back then, they may have had a funeral at the church, but they may also just have had a wake at the house and the burial directly from the house to the cemetery. If it was closer to the 1900s, then I'd say, they did it from the house. But in the 1920s and 1930s, it could have been either, depending on their financial circumstances. As for who could be buried in a Catholic Cemetery, only those Catholics who had not been excommunicated from the chur! ch. Non-Catholics could not be buried in consecrated ground. Someone who was excommunicated could also make a death bed confession if a priest came and be given last rites and would be able to be buried in consecreated ground, which is what a Catholic Cemetery is. Also, sometimes the cemetery would have a certain area which was not consecrated for certain burials. Back then that could be an excommunicated Catholic or an unbaptised child. All this will probably not help you very much because you won't know what happened back then.

As all should by now be aware, Senator Milne's Bill S-12, An Act to Amend the Statistics Act and National Archives of Canada Act (census records), was referred back to Committee to allow Dr. Ivan Fellegi (Chief Statistician of Canada) to appear before the Committee. His appearance was expected to be held on 17 April 2002, and the Bill was expected to be returned to the Senate not later than 30 April 2002. On 16 April I received notice from the Clerk of the Committee that the consideration of Bill S-12 was no longer scheduled for 17 April. No reason was given for the change in schedule. No indication was given as to when Dr. Fellegi would appear before the Committee and from other sources it was indicated that Senator Michael Kirby, Chair of the Committee would be seeking a short extension to the time by which the Bill must be returned to the Senate. Records of Hansard for the Senate debates of 25 April 2002 show that Senator Kirby made the following motion: "That notwithstanding the Order of the Senate adopted on March 25, 2002, the Standing Senate Committee on Social Affairs, Science and Technology, which was authorized to examine and report on Bill S-12, to amend the Statistics Act and the National Archives of Canada Act (census records), be empowered to present its final report no later than June 6, 2002." The motion was passed. The final day for sitting of the House of Commons, before the summer recess, is 21 June 2002. With a deadline of 6 June for return of Bill S-12 to the Senate, it would appear that we will not see a parliamentary resolution to the Access to Census issue before the fall at least. Even if S-12 was once again returned to the Senate without amendment, immediately passed third reading, and was referred to the House of Commons, there is insufficient time for it to go through all the steps necessary in the House before summer recess. What this all means is that we have not yet achieved our goal, and it will be necessary for us to continue to seek the support of our elected and appointed represenatives through our letters and petitions. The summer recess of Parliament will give many opportunities for us to arrange personal meetings with MPs in their constituency offices. I urge you to take full advantage of these opportunities. You do not have to do it alone -- take some friends along with you. As always, whether with letters, email, or personal meetings, I urge you to be polite and respectful. Request support - do not demand it. We are seeking support for our cause - do not be abusive or disrespectful because they have not yet given it. Happy Hunting. Gordon A.

    1. [IRISH-NYC] Dublin City 1851 Census
    2. Renee Bien
    3. Hello - I would like to know if anyone on this list has access to the cd rom of the 1851 Dublin City census. I was informed that I could possibly get a free lookup by going to http://www.ancestralfindings.com/cd275.htm but I am not smart enough to use that program. I followed directions (I thought) and finally got to a SITE box in which I typed in Dublin City 1851 Census. What I got back was Family Tree Maker Genealogy (is this the same as ancestralfindings?) and saw where there were 160 something hits. The very first ones pretained to Canada and it appeared that all the hits had to do with individual genealogy site for decendants. I did not find anywhere where one could get a free lookup even tho there were instructions on how to request one. Another thing that I found very iritating was I found myself in Ancestory.com without wanting to be there. Renee
