Eleanor, Thank you!!! Kathleen (isn't this list fabulous!) Original ?* -- My replies** *Kerners- 1900 Census has them at - Ward 29, Ft Hamilton Ave in NY **Kerner's are Frederick (wife Sophie), son Philipp married to Jennie James, Aboard the ship, SS Ohio, arrival in NY on 23 Nov 1875 from Port of Bremen, Germany- Daughter Charlotte married Ruffus Creen then James J. O'Donnell. I have Mary (Dineen) O'Donnell - Ward 20 in Brooklyn in 1910. Her husband was Michael. I can't find Kerner in Ward 29 except Rose who is a patient at LI State Hospital. What is Kerner's first name so I can look him up on another census source. Ward 29 is generally Flatbush, but Ft. Hamilton Avenue is not in Flatbush - it is closer to Bensonhurst or BayRidge, and not the same as Hamilton Ave. *I have Rufus Creen, father of Isabell M. Creen O'Donnell renting at 65 Green Street Brooklyn. Charlotte hadn't divorced him yet. 1910 Census Green Street is in Greenpoint, a part of Brooklyn I am not familiar with. What is the surname of the family on elm and what year did you find them there. If I look at the surround streets, I can make a better call as to where it is. **Creen although on one census it has Green but the name is Ruffus/Rufus (Joseph or J.) Creen. Is Flatbush part of Brooklyn? (Rufus son of John Creen and Annie Miner - both he says were born in NY. Found this in the 1904 Census, Manhatten.) *On his Soc Sec application he put Flatbush, Brooklyn, NY. His wife Isabell Creen lists 59th Street as one of their addresses What is the full name of the gentleman born in Flatbush, and what year? **Lester Aloyisius O'Donnell, August 30, 1908, he was my grandfather. His father was James J. O'Donnell, married at the time to Mary Harrigan O'D. Mary died at 216 Hoyt Street in 1914. Is Hoyt Street in Flatbush? Eleanor Does anyone know how I can possibly find out which ship my grandfather jumped on and where it went? At the age of 13 Lester's Father caught him chewing tabacco and locked him in the attic after making him eat the chew. Lester ran away and tried to join the army but was too young. He stowed away on a ship bound for South America. After traveling for several years he returned in 1922 or 1923. At the age of 17 in 1923 he married Isabell M. Creen. Thank you!
