I do have census information on some but every census has a different year of birth and time of immigration. I was hoping to get a concensus from the census! ha ha ha The Calvary Cemetary has date of burial/dealth and age but again they don't match exactly with the census. (Within a year or two) It really would have been great to have the 1890 census but all that's left is the directory for that year. My great grandmother died in 1900 and my great uncle in 1909. I found a newspaper mention for both under a mispelling McNalley but will have to write to get it. This is what I have so far, and I'm not exactly sure that it is correct. Irish immigrants to St. Louis, MO. My great grandfather, Lawrence Peter McNally (DOB 1863 thru 1865 to 1939, may have come over in 1884, naturalized in 1890), married a Mary Gildea/Gilday (DOB 1865 to 1900). Don't know if married in St. Louis or in Ireland. They had three children; Lawrence Peter (1892-1909), Peter Lawrence (my grandfather (1897-1981) and Margaret (1889-1967). Mary Gildae/Gilday family came over also and settled in St. Louis, names are; Margaret (1835-1891), Stephen (1867-1936) and Patrick (1862-1894). After Mary died Lawrence later married Anna Cavanaugh (1871-1938). Anna McNally is burried in same lot as Bridget Cavanaugh (1856-1909). My father's grandparents had all passed away before he was born. He remembers nothing and now all his siblings have passed. I will do as you suggested. Thanks again!

I was hoping there was a genealogy group in St. Louis that I could work with. I have written a few professional groups on-line asking for assistance and prices but have not received a response. I'm not in Missouri right now, otherwise I would go myself. I have posted specific messages just about everywhere and am waiting to see what comes in. I just wanted to post the surnames on the St. Louis main board incase someone is ever looking for them. Both sides of my family records were all or partially destroyed in fires of St. Louis and in McGee County so not much is available on the on-line services. Thanks!

See following website for information on what they have and to email your request. http://www.slpl.lib.mo.us/libsrc/geneinfo.htm I looked up Dwight Coultas and his family and according to the 1930 census there were only two Dwights, father and son. Father was born about 1885 in CT; son was born 1914 in Rhode Island and his mother was born in Nova Scotia as were her parents. Family was living in Ct. at the time of the census. Dwight the son died in 1972 but the SS death index did not give place of death. Georgia
