If you're addressing me, the name of the book is "The History of New Ipswich, NH, 1735-1914" "with genealogical records of the principal families" by Charles H. Chandler. It's available from Heritage Books.

Yes, there is a history of New Ipswich, but it doesn't record families unless at least two generations lived there before about 1900. I looked, no Stevens there.

Ok, Try Moses Foster, Sr. line. I was thinking your Sybel was a Brooks, maybe our Foster line. My Brooks/Melvins married into the Fosters. Darn, the name Stevens is ringing bells, wish I had my MA/NH records. What else, oh, Blood is a Concord name, also. Phoebe

Mimi, There is a history of New Ipswich. I have forwarded your message to my Melvin and Brooks cousins and hope one of them will respond to you. I just can't right now, but believe that our families were related - Benjamin Brooks and probably Melvin too. Concord, MA to Townsend, MA folks. Phoebe in CA

Hi List, Would anyone have access to the 1880 census for Nashua? I am trying to find any information on Amable Boisvert (Greenwood) and his wife Zoe Brosseau. I know they had a daughter who was married in Nashua at St. Louis' Catholic Church on West Hollis St. Zoe died in 1895 but I cannot find the death of Amable. I believe that Amable and Zoe lived somewhere near Broad St. as they attended St. Francis Catholic Church and Zoe and Amable's relatives are buried in St. Francis' Cemetery off Broad Street. I would ask for the 1890 census but I do not believe it exists. Also, would there be a directory for Nashua in 1890? Amable was a farmer while living in Quebec but I do not know what occupation he had when he moved to Nashua. Thanks for any help you can give me. I do not drive so I cannot get to a FHC very often. I am trying to find this information for my mother. I have checked all the usual sites from Familysearch, Ancestry, Gendex, Genforum, Everton, rootsweb, Quebec and NH websites with no luck. Sue in Florida macduff@infi.net

Hi Joanne, I think you and I spoke about a year or so ago. Supposedly, my mother did all that research while she lived up there in Nashua. I even had her look under the surname Greenwood, without any results. It would seem strange that is maternal side of the family is listed on the monument and his wife's name but not his. Since he died first, I would imagine his name would be on there. He is just a mystery and has disappeared. We have tried looking to see if he committed some sort of sin and is buried outside the walls but that has failed to show anything. I am going to take a wild guess that since his wife is buried in St. Francis Cemetery, that there is/was also a St. Francis Church. Was there ever such a church in Nashua? It has been 35 years since I lived there and my memory fails me. I only remember St. Joseph and St. Louis.

Hi, I am searching for the death of my gr. gr. grandfather, Amable Boisvert. Amable was born about 1822 in Canada to Jean Baptiste BOISVERT and (Marie) Louise Godin. Amable married Zoe Brosseau on 7 Feb. 1842 at St. Gregoire, Quebec. They had at least one daughter, Mathilda who was born in 1860 in West Farnum, Quebec. Mathilda married Henri Cote. Now my mystery. Zoe (Brosseau) BOISVERT died in Nashua, NH on 10 Aug. 1895 and is buried in the St. Francis cemetery along with the GODIN family. According to Zoe's death certificate, she was a widow when she died. There is no trace of Amable anywhere. I would think that if Zoe was buried along side his family in St. Francis Cemetery, he would be there also. I understand the Godin's have a large monument in this Cemetery but no Amable is listed. Would you have any idea where Amable died? I would like to get his death certificate and a picture of his headstone but I am up against the proverbial brick wall with him. If I could even find out if Zoe and Amable had more children, I could try and pin down the research time from 30+ years to maybe a handful. If you are interested, Zoe's parents were Pierre Brosseau and Madeleine Benoit. Thanks for any help you can give in solving this mystery. Sue in Florida macduff@infi.net

I do not claim expertise in this area, however I know there was more than one cemetery when I was looking for Irish Catholic folks in Manchester. A good resource is the American Canadian Genealogy Society in Manchester. They also have transcript books on some Manchester Parishes for sale.

Probably St Ann Church, Union St, Manchester NH

Greetings Jeanne, Catholic church records may be requested via a brief, specific letter to the parish church where the event occurred. Identifying the appropriate parish church may require a bit of detective work. A diocesan chancery or archives may be a helpful contact while you are trying to learn which churches may have been in existence at the time. Other helpful resources may include local histories, city directories of the era, and so forth. On Local Catholic Church and Family History and Genealogy Research Guide and Worldwide Directory at http://home.att.net/~Local_Catholic/ , you could select the geographic area of interest, in this case New Hampshire which is on the following webpage http://home.att.net/~Local_Catholic/CatholicUS-BostonMA-NH-VT-ME.htm . Then, click on "Manchester" to go to the information and links to the Catholic Diocese of Manchester....There you will find that the diocese has a diocesan history online. Reading through the online history, it appears the most likely parish in which you may be interested would be St. Anne's. St. Anne's Catholic Church was established in 1848. The address is: 383 Beech Street, Manchester, NH 03103-5397 I wish you the best with your research. Respectfully, --Ann Cahill Watson wrote: > Greetings! > > I am looking for marriage & baptismal records of Irish immigrants (Dennis > O'BRIEN and Julia Ann CAHILL), who lived in Manchester, 3rd Ward in 1860. > They were probably married about 1857-8, their child was born in 1859. > > Does anyone know the names of Catholic Churches where they were likely > parishoners?

Greetings! I am looking for marriage & baptismal records of Irish immigrants (Dennis O'BRIEN and Julia Ann CAHILL), who lived in Manchester, 3rd Ward in 1860. They were probably married about 1857-8, their child was born in 1859. Does anyone know the names of Catholic Churches where they were likely parishoners? If so, have the records been filmed by the LDS? Or does one contact the currect archdiocese? Thanks for any information. Jeanne Cahill

Posted on: Hillsborough County, New Hampshire Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NH/Hillsboro/955 Surname: JEWELL, HOBART, HALE, FARLEY, HADLOCK ------------------------- Thanks for your response. Indeed, the JEWELL family has been well documented. Thomas, our original immigrant ancestor, was progenitor of a very large family. My database currently includes over 8700 descendants of Thomas, however, I'm lacking many details. The families of James JEWELL & Sally HOBART, Eleazer HALE & Sally JEWELL, and Thomas FARLEY & Polly JEWELL all descend from Thomas through Benoni and Dorcas (HADLOCK) JEWELL. As all these families resided in Hollis, Hillsborough Co., NH in the late 1700's to early 1800's, I'm currently focusing my research on this area. If anyone is researching these families, or has any info regarding them, I will be happy to share information. I know that the FARLEY families were prominent in early Hillsborough Co., as I believe all these families were. Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank You. Art Burch
