Actually, it is pronounced, Gloss-tah and Woos-tah. That is the real old New England sound, with the " tah " kind-of whispered. None of we natives ever have a problem with the pronounciation. It's usually the ' come from away's ' who do. respectfuuly, Joe the Calker

As far as I'm concerned, if they want to hear "Gloster" and "Wooster", they will change the spellings, and I may not pronounce them that way then. "Gloster" and "Wooster". Honestly. Where were you born (may I ask)? And does your Gloukester sound like Gluekester or Glowkester?

This brings you to Worcester Co. which contains all the Counties of Mass. and all the towns of Mass. (_http://www.worcestermass.com/pronounce/middlesexcounty.shtml#groton_ (http://www.worcestermass.com/pronounce/middlesexcounty.shtml#groton) )

Nice! I've seen names for Mass towns I've never even heard of while going through the database. It is nice to finally figure out the correct way to say their names. Now, you natives need to work on those missing towns' pronunciations. Sue Richart Chewelah, Washington State Born in Boston, but my family left when I was two years old. .

Hi Jen. I gave them a call, they have no idea how I can get those records. Thank you for your reply. I'm sure i'll find them someday. Best wishes. Bob

Try the Massachusetts Corrections Department Records, or the Attorneys General Office in Boston. They might be able to help or direct you. Joe C.

Hi Bob, Deer Island is now a water treatment facility, I have been in there. It is a part of the town of Winthrop, MA. I wonder if maybe the town/city hall may be able to point you in the right direction, it won't hurt to ask. Good luck, Jenn

Bob, Have you looked at the Social Security death index.? if you want some help, send me his name and what ever info. you have on him, and i will try to help you find him. good luck! Peace, Tommy

Don't worry Bob, by now he's out! . Peace, Tommy

Hello. I just found a relative in a 1910 census. He was at the Deer Island prison. The census did not say why he was there, or how long he would be there, just that he was a prisoner. What I would like to know is if there is a place I good write or go to look at his record. Thank you. Best wishes. Bob Researching-- Tennihan, O'Connor, O'Mara, Goggin and Dizoglio

Priscilla, I have searched _www.familysearch.org_ (http://www.familysearch.org) and find her birth record in Clifden, Galway on May 5, 1864. However, her sisters came to the US and I know she was here at one point because she had her portrait taken and was godmother to her niece in 1889. After that I have lost her. I don't know who or if she married or if she stayed in the US or went back to Ireland. Carol

There are scads of them on http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/search/frameset_search.asp?PAGE=ancestorsear chresults.asp Have you looked to see if any of them were yours?

Is there a list of people buried in Kings Chapel Burial Ground?

Hi List, I am trying to find a death date for Charles Williamson of Boston, so that I might obtain his obituary. He was born in Nova Scotia in 1867 and moved to Boston c1891. He is listed in the 1905 city directory, but I do not have any further information. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you. Best Regards, Douglas Fevens

I came across a very extensive obituary of Mr. J.C. Harrigan in the Colville Examiner April 18, 1936. Although most of the full column and a half article describes her contribution to the Colville, Stevens County, Washington State area, there was a reference to her birth in Boston and a surviving uncle in Cambridge. See the extract below for the information. If anyone is researching this family and would like a copy of the full obituary or a lookup in records in the area, please send me an email. I'll be more than happy to add your request to my ongoing research. Sue Richart Chewelah, Washington State Titled: "Last Call Comes to Mrs. Harrigan" 'Mrs. J.C. Harrigan, wife of the editor of the Colville Examiner, died at her home Monday..." Mrs. Harrigan was born in Boston, Oct. 22, 1878. Her father was Wm. S. Moxon, a native of Nova Scotia, of English descent. Her mother was Mary Frazer Moxon, native of Prince Edward Island, of Scotch ancestry of the Clan Frazer. Her girlhood was spent in Jamestown, N.D. In 1900 she finished her nurse's training course in Minneapolis and came west, spending some time in San Francisco, Spokane, Lewiston, finally coming to Colville to remain in 1904. .... Only surviving relatives, besides her husband, are an uncle, T.D. Moxon of Cambridge, Mass., who has visited in Colville, and cousins on east and west coasts and in Canada. Her mother died when she was 8 years old, and her father died at her home in Colville in 1932. .... Interment was at Highland cemetery with the Rebekah lodge in charge. ... Business houses in Colville were closed during the services.
