Hi everyone! I just wanted to let you know that we have a new volunteer who has agreed to do obit research in Albuquerque. Her name is Norilee Peterson and her email is npete32475@spinn.net She will be charging a small fee ($10 per obit, I think) to cover her costs for gasoline, parking, copying etc. She has also agreed to start posting current obits from the Albuquerque newspapers onto the Bernalillo County GenConnect boards. Don't forget that obits for other NM counties are often posted in the Albuq papers, so her lookup service may come in handy for the Wild Bunch. Thanks, Norilee! Vikki Gray, Bernalillo CC

Could someone please tell me the address to write for information regarding the record of someone who did a short "stint" in a penetentiary in NM in the 1920s? I think it was a state penetentiary. I'd like to find the dates of incarceration, the charge, etc. The person in question died in 1982 so I hope that there is no confidentiality problem.

In 1960, as a child, I visited an elderly great aunt, Jean Annette MacGibbon, who had never married, and her nephew, Morris MacGibbon. I believe Morris' father was Harold MacGibbon and was involved in politics in Albuquerque. Jean and Parley Jensen and their three daughters were also living there at the time. I believe Jean was Morris' sister. My grandfather, Malcolm MacGibbon, was Harold's younger brother and he died in 1923.

The following was posted by Rhonda Cook <tuffy@northlink.com> on Sat, 18 Dec 1999 on the Bernalillo County GenConnect Query Forum: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Surname: Hughes I am searching for any information on a Miles Hughes or son William Patten Hughes. The family migrated in Albuquerque around 1888. William Patten Hughes attended a Catholic Convent School in Albuquerque sometime in 1888 or 1889. He was eleven or twelve years old. Does anyone have information on which church would have had a convent school and if any records would be available. William ran away around age twelve and though his father eventually found him in the early 1900's there was little communication betwwen the two men. All the family knows about Williams father was his name, Miles, that the family came from kentucky around 1888, that Miles possibly had a brother in the same area, the family were Irish Catholic. If any one has information on these men or of a Catholic Church Convent school your help would be appreciated. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any replies should be sent to the Bernalillo County GenConnect Query Forum [<http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NM/Bernalillo>] unless it is personal or involves live people addresses etc. when it should be sent to Rhonda Cook <tuffy@northlink.com>. --
