Teddy would you be able to find out anything about the Arch Pope Family that lived in Fall River, MA around 1913 to 1917? Arch Pope had several children there. Caryln Tolin Pope, and Russell Howard Pope. Is there any way to get copies of birth certificate or the info on them. I'm trying to locate any other Pope's that may have been in that area in 1890, 1900 or 1910 time frame. Arch Pope was a doctor and may have had a practice there. I'm trying to find out who his father was. He may have been Justus Pope as he was related to William Johnston Pope who was an United Brethen Minister and travel alot in MA. OH, Il, IA and MI. Any info on the Pope families would be deeply appreciate. At a brick wall, Sandy in VA.

I'm trying to find out if there are any records of the Fall River 'city home'. My father had an uncle, John NAVIN, who was a resident and died there. Looking to see if there are any records still around. Thanks

Hi List, I am wondering if anyone is going to the library soon and can look through some old directories for me. I am trying to find when my gr. grandfather last appears in the directory. I would normally use a census record to cull the years down to 10 but he died sometime between 1890 and 1900. I have looked at the 1889-90 Fall River directories on Ancestry.com and there are 4 Joseph BELISLE on King Phillip Street which could be mine. There is a 5th one but the occupation is given as a weaver. I know that is incorrect my person. The other 4 do not have occupations given. I also do not have a house number on King Street where he lived. I am wondering if anyone can check the other years, from 1891 to 1900 and see when Joseph is no longer there. My Joseph was a Baker. I think the Joseph, Jr. mentioned would probably be his son, so that would bring the number of names down to 3. I cannot drive do to disabilities and Ancestry is about my only source. I have not been able to get to the FHC down the road in almost a year. Thanks for any help you can give. I am trying to find Joseph's death for my mother. She is 82 years old and has been trying to find when and where her grandfather died for many years. Sue in Sunny (but chilly) Florida [email protected]

Bill & Lori Thanks for the info from October. Just getting back to my records after the holidays. I called St. Pat's and the woman in the office told me they have no records before 1890. She said the cemetery was probably St. John's and she had no records and didn't know where they might be. Another cemetery in Fall River is Notre Dame and they have their own records, as far as she knows.

Teddy, Send me what you know for sure on who you are looking for. Keep the facts seperate the possibliities. I'll be at the Salt Lake City Family History Library tomorrow and I'll see what I can find. My great great grandparents were in Fall River, Massachusetts in the late 1800's (still have relative in the local area. They attended Saint Anne's (the local Catholic Church at the time) and are buried in the Catholic cemetery (Notre Dame). Salt Lake also has a copy of the Fall River death records but I don't remember the time frame as it has been a few years since I've checked them for my ancestors.

Teddy, Have you tried www.mapquest.com ? Enter address and then zoom in. I found two Catholic cemeteries close to the address I was reseaching. Also you can choose an option to find businesses or churchs near your address. Hope this helps. Erin

Thanks to all that replied. Unfortunately I have no death date, that's part of what I'm trying to find out. I will however write to both of the cemeteries named and hope they can help with just a date range. Thanks again.... And if anyone recognizes the name Ronan or Lambert in Fall River 1885 onward, would love to share information.

You might try Notre Dame Cemetery It is the closest to Hamelet Street that I know about. It is located at 1540 Stafford Road Fall River Phone # 508-673-1561 I have found the people at the cemetery very helpfull. St Patrick's Cemetery is at the other end of the city. 2233 Robeson Street Fall River Ma. Phone # 508-679-2535 Then there is Oak Grove Cemetery not Catholic, but if you have no luck at the Catholic Cemeteries you might want to try there. Oak Grove Cemetery 765 Prospect St Fall River Ma. Phone # 508-324-2750 They also have a number for the North Burial Ground there 508-324-2751 all the information on the North Burial Ground is at Oak Grove Cemetery. Good luck! Marge

I checked Rounds's "Vital Records of Swansea, Massachusetts, to 1850" and these are the only records for Hezekiah Anthony: Births: "Hezekiah Anthony the son of Benjamin Anthony and Martha his wi[fe] was born april the 21:1747" "Anthony, Hezekiah Son of Hezekiah Anthony and of Susannah his wife born March 20t 1803" "Anthony, Benjamin Son of Hezekiah Anthony and of Susannah his wife born October 13th 1805" "Anthony, Simon Son of Hezekiah Anthony and of Susannah his wife born November 4t 1807" Marriages: "Hezekiah Anthony and Anne Brown both of Swanzey was marred [sic] December ye 27:1767 By Mr Russell Mason Elder of a Church of Christ In Swanzey" No birth for Hezekiah Anthony is listed in Arnold's "Vital Record of Rehoboth, Bristol Co., Massachusetts, 1642-1896" In Arnold's "Vital Record of Rhode Island, 1636-1850" there are no Tripps in the Newport birth records. Note: there was a Susannah Tripp of Swansea who married James Gardner of Rehoboth 16 Mar 1794 (m. by Elder Russell Mason in Swansea.) Other Anthonys are mentioned in the Swansea VRs. If interested, let me know.

Hi, The Catholic cemetery in Fall River is St. Patrick's, located at 2233 Robeson Street, Fall River, MA 02720. Tel. number is 508-679-2535 and the ladies that work there are most helpful. Their records are on index cards so they need a name and death date. Then when they pull the index card, they add that info into a computer base that they are building. They told me that they have no records before 1891. Records are good from 1891 through May 1915. After 1915 their records are excellent. I have been able to give them the name of an ancestor with a death date; then when they pulled the file, I got names of several more who were buried in the same plat, along with ownership of the plat and other information. Hope this will be of help to you. Joan McCarthy

I hope someone can help. Michael F. Ronan and Rose Ronan lived in Fall River in 1930 and prior as found in the 1930 census. They were both Irish and I assume Catholic. In 1930 they were living on Hamlet street and remained there as long as my husband can remember. Neither is listed in the SSDI death index although I believe they both died after 1954. Can anyone tell me the nearest Catholic Cemetery to Hamlet Street or the Cemetery most often used by members of St. Anne's church. (I think that is where they would have gone to church, but I may be wrong) If there is a Catholic church more accessible to Hamlet street maybe someone will also let me know which. I am trying to find death information as well as parents names.

I'm looking for any info on the Justus Pope family. Justus Pope was married to Elnora Lehr Pope and they had 2 children and possibly a few more. Forest Pope born around 1879 in IA or IL. Ethyel Pope Beckley died Omaha, NE in 1950's buried Forest Lawn Cemetery. Arch Pope may have been another sibling born 1882 in IA, possibly Davenport, IA. Justus Pope was the son of William Johston Pope and Jane Frances Harrington Pope. Justus was born 12 Jan 1856 in MI. Possibly Silver Creek Cass Co, area. William Johnston Pope was a United Brethern minister, not sure if Justus was also. Elnora Pope became a widow 9 Oct 1918, but I don't know were Justus Pope died or where he is buried. Elnora Pope was in the 1920 Denver census living with Dr. Arch Pope. I don't know when she died or where she is buried. Can you tell me if there are any family histories or bios on these families? Can you tell me if there is any way to find out if Justus died in MI? William Johnston Pope died 8 Dec 1890. Can you tell me if he died in IL or MI and if there would be any obits? I know that he is buried in Searle Ridge Cemetery, DePue, Bureau, IL along with several other Pope family members, but I've not been able to locate Elnora there or Justus Pope. Is ther a listing of people buried at Searle Ridge Cemetery anywhere? Looking for info on any Pope, Lehr members. Thank you for your time and efforts. Happy New Year. Sandy Hutchinson

However, New Bedford did have a column heading "Total" for the rightmost column, and at the bottom of the page for New Bedford, the enumerator mentions that his district consisted of New Bedford and Dartmouth. This would not be obvious without looking beyond Dartmouth for the column heading information. Not every town in Bristol county included a column with totals per residence - some kept the original form - with the column for slaves and just left it blank. The 1820 census according to Ancestry's form - and other descriptions, has 8 columns for slaves. That is followed by 8 columns for free colored persons. In some states the slave columns were used - but in all the images I checked for MA and NH, the 8 columns for slaves were not included, and the 8 columns for free colored persons replaced them. I'm glad Charlie asked the question, or I would not have realized that the Ancestry forms don't always accurately depict the columns that were on the actual images. It's a good lesson learned!
