Good suggestions Kathleen if I am ever in the Troy area. A bit more difficult to do from Minnesota unless I can find them online.

Johanna was from Sligo. I suggest you go to the Albany Ed Bldg 7th floor open stacks where the Troy books are and look for Inscriptions on Tombstones in the Old Troy Cemeteries by Mrs. Brown.These frequently have a census record and place names and wartime regt. and infantry #s. info. Ex. mother Bridget Quinn b. Ire or Natives of Co Monaghan. It says see Troy Burial book in another case. It also has an appendix. Look at it. Kathleen S
