Then John F O'Donnell (who I had thought maybe a cousin to James) dob Dec 1854. Peter(unkown date) and Patrick dob 1844. So My grandfather James and John F were brothers not cousin. I don't know how I missed that before. Found this on Eva Gremont web site. Anyone searching Dohertys(in the Co Donegal area) along with McDaid, McDevitt, Bradley, Callaghan, and others should check her site out. Recently I also learned that my other grandfather Patrick Bradley had not just two sisters and a brother but also another sister (Ellen) and brother(James) I didn't know about. I knew he had Mary, Margaret, and Bernard as his sibblings until search at Eva Gremont's site. Anyone that has connections in Co Donegal/Co Cork, to Doherty, O'Donnell I'd love to hear from you especially if they were in the Carndonagh, Glenmakee area. with details please. I still am trying to find if there is a connection between my great grandmother Susan White Doherty, and Neil Dohert(1838-1878) in Co rk. Neil's daughter Bridget(Feb 1861) wound up marrying John F O'Donnell(dec 1854) in 1881, Carndonagh(Sacred Heart Church). They immigrated to Boston(Stoneham in April 1881-later North End of Boston at the time a big Irish Community) Good Luck in your searching !! Barbara

This could be the Hy Berkowitz we are looking for. We do not know how he was related, so I am going to have to try to figure out a way to dig up some more facts. I was told by a relative that he was a cousin, and as I may have mentioned, I recall my mother a"h having spoken of a "Hymie". Perhaps he was a nephew of Barnett (Dov) and Eva (Gnessa Rivka) Berkowitz of Salem, MA? They had four daughters, Golde (Semel), Fanny (Musmon), Mollie (Amalie)(Grossman) and Annie, and they lived in Salem in the early part of the 1900's. Would you know that names of Hy's parents? Thanks very much for you help! All the best, Janice Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Social Security Death Index about Richard D. Berkowitz Name: Richard D. Berkowitz Last Residence: 19312 Berwyn, Chester, Pennsylvania Born: 3 Oct 1928 Died: 23 Aug 2009 State (Year) SSN issued: Massachusetts (Before 1951) Philadelphia Inquirer, The (PA) - October 6, 2009 Deceased Name: Richard D. Berkowitz , 80, doctor, teacher Richard David Berkowitz, 80, a teacher and physician at Temple University Hospital, died Aug. 23 of acute myeloid leukemia at his Berwyn home. An internist, Dr. Berkowitz was part of the hospital's Comprehensive Medical Clinic from 1960 to 1968, before he became director of its employee health service. As director, he was physician to most of the school's medical students, often called on to reassure them that they had not acquired the last disease they had studied. "He had to be a good diagnostician," said his wife, Letty Lee Dahme-Berkowitz. "So many of his former students will say, 'He got me through medical school.' " Dr. Berkowitz also taught internal medicine, she said. He retired as an associate professor of medicine emeritus in 1992. Born in Boston to a prominent musical family, he graduated from Harvard College (where he played clarinet in the school band) in 1950, and earned his M.D. at Tufts University Medical School in 1954. He then was a medical captain with the! Army's 82d Airborne Division and at the military hospital at Fort Dix, N.J., and did his residency at Philadelphia Veterans' Affairs Medical Center. In 1965, he married Constance Zucker, with whom he had a son, David, whom he raised after their divorce in 1972. Dr. Berkowitz's hobbies included music, coin-collecting, chess, and stargazing, and he taught celestial navigation while serving as education officer for the Main Line Power Squadron. He remarried in 1989, and, after he retired, he and his wife spent months at a time sailing the Adriatic or the Maine Coast, or living in London. "He taught me what life and love were about," Dahme-Berkowitz said. In 1997, he joined the Society of Friends, to which she belongs, "because he cared for the principle of nonviolent conflict resolution." Besides his son and wife, Dr. Berkowitz is survived by a stepson, Andrew Zucker; stepdaughters Elizabeth Krick, Margaret Mayer, and Kathryn Dahme; and four grandchildren. A memorial service ! is planned for the spring. Contributions in his memory may be made to the Delaware Valley Friends School, 19 E. Central Ave., Paoli, Pa., 19301.

Name is Harold Parker Gilmour, born 1903, Lynn, MA. Census records show he is not living with his father Phillip D Gilmour and mother Margaretta (Etta) Gilmour. An old family story tells that my dad was so bad that they sent him away to a home when he was little. He scrimped and saved and somehow at the age of 8 showed up on his parents' doorstep having traveled from across town. I've looked under Harold Gilmour, Parker Gilmour and "Gil" Gilmour (his nickname) and can't find him. Any help with this bit of research would be appreciated.
