Is it Bronx, Bronx County, NY? or NYC, Bronx County, NY? or Bronx, NY? or whatever? My cousins and I are wondering how to record our family's birth & death places correctly! Thanks!

According to the 1920 census, Michael, Catherine and George Enders are living at 777 East 180th Street. What parish served a particular address is nearly impossible to recreate as the parish boundaries were relatively fluid. In most cases, you start with the nearest parish and work out. The nearest RC church extant in your timeframe is: St Martin of Tours 664 Grote St. Bronx, NY 10457 Phone: (718) 295-0913 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Bob, Despite the same zip code, I would be surprised if the family attended either Our Lady of the Assumption (OLA) or St Theresa. OLA was my childhood parish and I was married there in 1974. St. Theresa was a few blocks from me. Both are in the Pelham Bay section. The address is closer to Westchester Square. The better choice would be either St. Francis Xavier or St. Raymond Church on Castle Hill Ave. They're not that far from 1435 Williamsbridge Rd. Nora Hopkins FitzGerald Hopkins - Castlebar, Co.

Author: ebenordms Surnames: duffy, enders Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.bronx/3487/mb.ashx Message Board Post: It never occurred to me to try and find my Michael Duffy this way, but I will give it a try. What Parish would have served the Duffy family who lived on 774 180th Street in the Bronx in 1920. As far as I can tell, Michael died in about 1927, and his wife Catherine Enders must have died between then and 1930. It appears that Catherine had a "change of life" baby sometime in 1927, also named Catherine. I found her in the Orphan Asylum in the 1930 census, at least I assume she is, although the orphanage would not give me any information as I am not a Direct decendant. The next record I have for Catherine is in New Jersey in 1942 living with her Uncle George, Catherine Sr.s brother. My last record for her is the SS death record. She died in Westchester in 1976 (as I recall). It might be a way to find out when Michael died and where he was put to rest. Any help?

The lectures are "Introduction to Irish and Scots-Irish Family History Research," "The Three Cs: Church Registers, Census Records and Civil Registration Records," "Gravestone Inscriptions," and "Not Always at the Bottom of the Pile." Time will be allotted for questions after each lecture. The seminar will take place on Sunday, September 28th, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., in the McNally Amphitheatre of Fordham Law School at Lincoln Center, located at 140 W. 62nd Street, between Amsterdam and Columbus avenues. Take the A, B, C, D, or 1 subway line to 59th Street-Columbus Circle. The price of admission is $15 for Roundtable members and $20 for others.
