Pat, here is the information on Jacob Flynn/Flinn: "On June 7, 1837, the First Baptist Society in Dorchester was constituted in Neponset Hall, Joshua Cushing and Deacon Jacob Flinn being the pillars of the new church during its early days. During the following year the first meeting-house of the society was erected on Chickatawbut Street, which was afterwards enlarged to meet the requirements of the increased number of worshippers." (p. 277) He is also listed on p. 278 as a Deacon of the church. Source: Good Old Dorchester A Narrative History of the Town 1630-1893, William Dana Orcutt, John Wilson & Son, University Press, 1893.

I don't know if ward numbers change or not over the years. The Boston Public Library might have that information, or the Mass Archives. If they don't have that information, they may be able to steer you in the right direction. I grew up in Brighton and I always heard Medford pronounced and pronounced it myself as Medfid.

Dear Pat, Thanks for your kind reply. I had not realized that Ward 12 was in Southie in the 1860's. Can I presume, then, that Ward Numbers change over the decades ? Is there some convenient way of finding this kind of intelligence, that you may be aware of ? As for all the fun with our ' quaint " accents, I met a man this past week who is from Medford. I asked him how he learned to pronounce the name of his city. He boldly replied, " Meffid .' You can't get it any fresher than that. Thanks, again, Joe

Jack, much thanks. I will follow up on your recommendations. Joe

Thanks for checking for me. I highly doubt that Jacob Flynn was related, but if it's not too much trouble, send it anyway. Maybe I can make a connection somewhere. Thanks again.

Hello, Pat! I just checked my books and found the only two references to a Deacon Jacob Flynn (Flinn) in Orcutt's book which is the history of Dorchester from 1630-1895. Let me know if you want me to send those. I purchased <The History of the Town of Dorchester...> on Amazon several years ago.

For what it's worth, Ward 12, in 1860, was in South Boston. My Flynn family lived on F Street in Southie in 1860 - in Ward 12. I enjoyed the history of your family and wish I could help. One of these days I'm going to renew my membership in the NEHGS, then maybe I can look somethings up for you. By the way, I really enjoyed all the rhetoric about the "Bawstin" accent. I put them all into my word program and printed them out. My son who lives in CA still teases me about my Boston accent.

Joe, You made no reference to the Massachusetts Census so I assume you have not used it. Although a decennial Massachusetts Census was taken through 1935, only those of 1855 and 1865 have survived. They are available (on microfilm) at the Massachusetts Archives, where you might also find passenger ship records, as well as the MA Vital Records from 1841 through 1915. There was a Rev. Jeremiah Donovan, a Jesuit, at Holy Cross in the 1940s/50s. He would have been born around 1900, I think. Don't recall where he died. The Jesuit Provincial Office in Boston might help you with some background. He taught several years and was made Dean of Students around 1951. Jack

Dear Masuffol subscribers, I am fairly new to this website, and as such, do not fully understand how it works. That said, I would appreciate any help in trying to learn anything about a Catherine Kidney who lived in the section of Boston now the site of the South Station, on Cove Street and / or Cove Place, at least in the 1853, when she placed an advert in the Boston Pilot Newspaper's ' Missing Friends " columns, looking for her brother , William Kidney from Kinsale, Parish of Clountead, County Cork, Ireland. He was supposed to have immigrated sometime in 1849 ( into Boston ?) and then , presumedly, moved to New Hampshire. On Oct. 1853, Catherine Kidney,address No. 9 Cove St., Boston, purchased a plot in the North Cambridge Catholic Cemetery, and interred one Ellen Kidney, 49. I do not know if she was Catherine's sister, mother, aunt or cousin. On the same day, an adjacent lot was also purchased by Mr. John ( and wife, Catherine [ Devine ] ), then of Charlestown, Mass. In the 1850 Boston Census there is listed ( # 280 ) Patrick Kidney, age 35, b. IRE Wd 2, his wife, Catherine,( m.n. unk ) age 25, b. IRE, and a son, Dennis, age 1 , b. Mass. In the 1860 Census, ( Hs # 354 ), husband, Patrick , is not listed, although Catherine, ( presumedly a widow ) now 35, and son, Dennis, now age 11, are listed. They are then living in Wd 12. On August 19, 1860, Catherine Kidney ( m.n. unk ) married one Jeremiah Donovan, a laborer, age 34, second marriages for both, at St. Peter and Pauls RC Church in South Boston, not far from the Ward 2 area of Cove Street. Witnesses were John Gleeson, a clerk at Federal St. cor High St., Boston and of So. Boston, and Ann Murphy, a widow, of Federal St., Boston. What is of particular interest to me is a possible Kidney family connection to my great grandfather, John Donovan, of County Cork, Ire; and his wife, Catherine [ Devine] Several years ago when I was asking my mother about our family tree on her side, she said that she recalled the name KIDNEY being mentioned, but did not know the connection, if any. Just recently, by some great act of Providence, I quite by accident came across a listing in the City of Quincy Death registry for May 22,1863, the names of John and Catherine Donovan, ( East Quincy, later called Wollaston ) for a stillborn infant, who was buried ' at Cambridge, Mass.'., John and Catherine [ Devine ] were married at St. Peters Church, Concord Ave., West Cambridge, Mass., on May 9th, 1858. Among their wittnesses were a James Donovan and Johanna O'Connell. Father Mannassas P. Daugherty presided over the wedding. John Donovan was then listed as a blacksmith. They may have been living in West Cambridge, later renames as Arlington. He may have worked for the, then, newly established horse street railway, shoiing horses. In 1861, while living in Charlestown, they had their first child, a son, named Jerimiah W. , on Feb. 24, 1861. He was baptised at St. Mary's Church. Sponsors were Denis Devine and Margaret Donovan, possibly related to both John and Catherine. Sometime soon after the birth of their son, they removed to Quincy, where John was employed as the / a blacksmith for the newly established Quincy Horse Railway that ran from the Penn's Hill area to Neponset and later to Field's Corner, Dorchester. They lived in the , then, unpopulated section of Quincy, later to be named Wollaston. His house was adjacent to the car barns on " the Turnpike , " now called Hancock Street, opposite Fenno Street, now. After the demise of the Horse Street Railway in 1868, John removed to the sparsly populated section of north Quincy, then called Atlantic. He then purchased a small lot in the Neponset Village area and established himself a blacksmith- horse shoeing stand there, retiring in the 1890's, the stand then being operated by his son, Jeremiah, and also along with a new son in law, Patrick Murphy, from Macroom, Ireland, who married their daughter, Catherine. Catherine Donovan died in 1892, at age 62 years. John survived till age 85 years, dying in 1910. He was then " the oldest resident in Atlantic section of Quincy," and was descibed as " a pioneer blacksmith for the old horse street railway." I pursued this lead with the Archdiosces of Boston Archives at Brighton and was stunned and pleased to find the citation of the purchase of the cemetery lot at West Cambrige Cath. Cem., next to the Kidney family plot, by John ( and Catherine ) Donovan. For some unknown reason, if I correctly understand the historic document, the infant was interred in the Kidney family plot, not the Donovan plot. Nevertheless, here was my first confirmation that there was some kind of connection between the DONOVAN and the KIDNEY families. I cannot discount, nor can I affirm , that the Jeremiah Donovan who married Catherine Kidney ( m.n. unk ) in 1860, is or is not related to my great GF, John. There was no shortage of ' Donovans ' around back then, at least not in Boston, and more than a few were named John and Jeremiah. I have hit a dead end with Catherine (m.n. unk ) Kidney Donovan, as well as for Jeremiah Donovan, and Catherine's son, Dennis. I also do not have citations on the death of Patrick Kidney, sometime prior to 1860. Of course, I have no information about Jeremiah's late wife ( name unk ), either. This is my only thread, so far, as to the possible connection of these two families. I would be most grateful to anyone who might provide me with any further information about these people, eg, when and where they lived, died, appear in later census, etc. I hope this information is of more help than bother to anyone who will kindly follow up on this request. Thankyou in advance, Sincerely, Joe Chetwynd Pembroke, MA

Jeff, I don't have an exact location for the origin of Richard Collicott, but according to Orcutt's <Good Old Dorchester> he came aboard the Mary and John in 1630. I also have <The History of Dorchester, Massachusetts> and just checked the index for the names of both Hall and Collicott. There are several pages where they are mentioned.

Is anyone researching early settlers of Dorchester, MA? Specifically, I'm looking for anyone looking at the family of Richard HALL of Dorchester, MA and Richard COLLICOTT of Dorchester, MA. I'd like to know if there is any new data on where in England they might have come from, as well as any details of where Richard COLLICOTT's 200 acres near the Merrimack River might be on today's maps...

Immigrated 1883 - Naturalized In addition to census records, there is the record of a birth of Gustaf Wilhelm Van Colln in Boston 11 Aug 1896. Name was corrected 22 Jan 1913 - Gustaf is crossed off leaving the name as Wilhelm Van Colln. Residence was Johnston St. Father was Wilhelm and mother listed as Frigerlof. I didn't find a marriage record, although there is one in for Boston for a William Von Colin in 1893. I was unable to see that image or to find a corresponding record for his wife. Florence

The image is now available. Florence, the bride's name wasn't listed in the database, because she is listed on one of the missing index volumes. Each index page has around 80 names and each index volume has around 500 pages, meaning some 51,000 names are missing from the database that are actually on the images. The webmaster doesn't know when this might be fixed. For the small towns, like Saugus, making a list of the missing images is possible. I've thought about it a lot, but can't come up with a solution for Boston. Index pages missing from the NEHGS database include: 1886-1890 births surnames starting around Smith and going to Z. 1886-1890 Marriages surnames starting around Moulton going to around Savery 1891-1895 Marriages surnames starting around Frothingham going to around Kane 1891-1895 Deaths affecting about 138 index pages covering at least surnames Carter to Cheever 1866-1870 Deaths, the index page that contains Abigal Adams The last two are most likely going to be fixed first. As to the actual marriage records requested, the information is: 1893, vol 435 pg 35 Item 626, February 9th, Groom: William Von Colln, residence Boston, age 40, occ Electrician, born Germany, parents William G and Wilhelmine, Bride: Ingelof (with an umlaut over the O), Johanson, residence Boston, age 35, occ Cook, born Sweden, parents John and Mary, First marriage for both, ceremony conducted by C. F. Johansson of Boston. By the way, the groom's name was spelled Von Colln on the image and that isn't a typo on my part. Not that I don't do typos, I do, but not in this case.
