Here's 2 links (note, they are long links) to the FHL Catalog pertaining to the records of "Bodies in Transit" [1]https://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.as p?display=titledetails&titleno=551768&disp=Manhattan+bodies+in+transit%2C+18 59%2D18 &columns=*,0,0 [2]https://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp ?display=titlefilmnotes&columns=*%2C0%2C0&titleno=551768&disp=Manhattan+bodi es+in+transit%2C+1859-18++ -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [BKLYN] Nolan... Try "Bodies in Transit" From: <[3][email protected]> Date: Sun, April 22, 2012 4:35 pm To: [4][email protected] Considering that John Nolan may have died outside of NYC you might try the records of "Bodies in Transit," which were licenses to travel with the remains of the deceased thru New York City (Manhattan). So if your ancestor died outside of New York City, and was being buried in the city or just traveling thru, they would have needed this document. These records are great!---they give the name of the deceased, age, place and date of death, place of interment, cause of death, name of doctor, etc, and exist for the years 1859 to 1894. ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [5][email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message References 1. https://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=551768&disp=Manhattan+bodies+in+transit%2C+1859%2D18 2. https://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titlefilmnotes&columns=*%2C0%2C0&titleno=551768&disp=Manhattan+bodies+in+transit%2C+1859-18 3. mailto:[email protected] 4. mailto:[email protected] 5. mailto:[email protected]
