Author: Georgia1910 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.michigan.counties.wayne/19011.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Looks like she was married before to someone named Walkowski (?). The priest's name that married them is shown as Rev. F. G. Zella in the 1910 booklet about the Catholic Churches in Detroit and Windsor. In 1910 and earlier he was the pastor of St. Stanislaus which is now closed. Closed parish records are at the Archdiocese of Detroit. The Burton Historical Collection of the main Detroit Public library has Catholic Church records on microfilm but you have to research yourself or hire a researcher. I think the archives of the archdiocese does some research for a fee. On the marriage record at familysearch.org, the priest's name looks more like Gzella. Found this on family search Name: Mary Walkowski Gender: Female Burial Date: Burial Place: Death Date: 15 May 1913 Death Place: Hamtramck, Wayne, Michigan Age: 16 Birth Date: 1897 Birthplace: Michigan Occupation: Race: White Marital Status: Single Spouse's Name: Father's Name: Henry Walkowski Father's Birthplace: Michigan Mother's Name: Jennie Paradowski Mother's Birthplace: Michigan Indexing Project (Batch) Number: B02425-6 System Origin: Michigan-EASy GS Film number: 1377699 Reference ID: You can get the above death certificate at www.seekingmichigan.org There are Walkowskis on the Mt.

Author: Georgia1910 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.michigan.counties.wayne/19013.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Looking at the 1930 census, the age at first marriage shows that Mabel has only been married about 2 years but then the same thing is true of James Sr. James, Jr.'s information says that his father was born in Pennsylvania and his mother in the US. If Mabel were his mother, than it would show as Indiana, Mabel's birthplace. Jimmie's death certificate would not be a primary source for his parents' names unless his parents were still living and gave the information. His birth record would be the primary source. Margaret's information on the death index gives her birth place as Ohio which is were Jimmie was born according to the census. You could try to find James and Margaret in a Detroit City Directory. Contact the Burton Historical Collection (BHC) of the main Detroit Public Library to see if they would check maybe 1925. Generally the city directories started listing wives sometime in the 1920s I think. You can email the BHC at the following: http://www.detroit.lib.mi.us/featuredcollection/burton-historical-collection Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Author: TomNelson33 Surnames: Rhodes Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.michigan.counties.wayne/19013/mb.ashx Message Board Post: If anyone has any knowledge of the subject individual or his wife Mable or his son "Jimmy", please post a reply to this message. I have set up a Find A Grave page for the son and here is the link: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=111049175 According to the census records, the Rhodes family was living in the Detroit area during, at least, the 1930s and 1940s. I specifically want to learn who is the natural mother of the son Jimmy. Was it Mable or was it, perhaps, one "Margaret (O'Connor) Rhodes" who was married to a James Rhodes from the early 1920s until her death in 1926. I'm just not sure if her husband was the subject individual! Here is a link to HER page: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=110634257 If this message board yields no information then, I guess, I can request a copy of Margaret's or Jimmy's death certificates. Or maybe a copy of the marriage license. Anyway, thanks to anyone who can enlighten me about this family.

There's a place to enter comments, and you can provide the location details (plot, lot number, etc.) If there is no memorial, you can add one and fill in the location details, and then create the photo request.
