    1. [NJGLOUCE] Wits End with my KELLERS!
    2. Deborah Johnson
    3. Hi All - I'm at my wits end! I'm trying to find my KELLERS and it's becoming quite nutty! I have the subs now to all of ancestry and genealogy.com, but here's the kicker, even though, through a kind look up before I had these, I can't find Henry Keller in the 1880 census! I personally have found it through that person giving me the page and such, but, when I do a search of the census images, he doesn't show up for 1880! How weird. Anyway, here's my predicament, I'm trying to locate the names of all 10 of the children, I have 7, 8 were still living as of 1900. I'm also trying to figure out what happened to the other 5 that I can't find hide nor hair of after 1900, atleast not in NJ. If anyone has the discs for the census and can help me out here somehow, simple information will help, I can go do the page looking from there. Also, if any of the following seems familiar to anyone, please, let me know! Henry KELLER - b. 5/29/1844, Ger. d. 1/25/1932 in Bridgeton, NJ. Married Margaret A. SMITH - b. 5/1/1852, NJ d. 1911ish in Bridgeton. Children: Joseph b. 3/1868 - NJ Lydia b. 2/1870 - NJ Ruhamah b. 10/1874 - OH - d. 12/1931 in NJ - *my 2nd great grandmother. Andrew b. 1875 - OH Harry b. 6/1883 - NJ Ada b. 9/12/1886 - NJ - d. 2/1975 in NJ - m. Imluy GIFFORD Russell b. 5/1890 - NJ Here's what else I know: Ruhamah is covered, it's the siblings that aren't. As of 1900 (found them on that census), Joseph, Lydia, Ada, Harry and Russell were still living with their parents in Bridgeton. According to Ada's obit, she was surivied by a sister-in-law, Nora KELLER of Pittsburgh, PA, and two nephews, Lewis KELLER of Florida and Henry Keller of Pittsburgh. Questions: Who is the 8th child still living in 1900? Where were they in 1870? Who is Nora the wife of? Who are the Lewis and Henry the children of? Like I said, if anyone can help me narrow down the census search for these folks, I'd really appreciate it. And to those of you for whom I'm getting stuff at the courthouse here in Bridgeton, as you know, I had company two weeks ago, and last week we had a very sudden and unexpected death in the family, my uncle on my step father's side, and now, my grandfather MINGIN is in the hospital in Camden with 2 hernias and an abdominal aortic anurysm?. Due to his age and health, bad heart and emphysema?, they can do nothing for him, so, needless to say, it's been a rough couple of weeks and I hope you all understand. I'm hoping to go tomorrow, but, we have no idea at this point when they are going to send him home, I sit here all day waiting for the call.

    3. Hi Deb, Have you tried looking on the immigration lists fro Ireland? I don`t know about the name KELLERS, but it might be a spelling taken from the name KELLEHER? That is a name in my first Husbands line, and they immigrated from Ireland in the late 1800`s.
