Hi June, There was a Charles L. Anderson who was with the Seventh Cavalry at the Time of the Battle of the Little Big Horn: http://www.littlebighorn.info/Cavalry/NameA.htm I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting. Chag Sameach Sukkot*, Walter Greenspan Great Falls, MT & Jericho, NY * KHAHG sah-MEHY-ahkh = A Joyous Holiday. The 7-day Jewish Biblical Festival of Sukkot (soo-KOHT, Lev. 23:33-43) began on the 15th day of the month of Tishrei, which this year began at sunset on Wednesday, September 22 on the civil calendar, and commemorates the forty-year period following the Exodus from Egypt during which the children of Israel were wandering in the desert, living in temporary shelters (the Christian version of this Jewish Biblical Festival is called Tabernacles). </HTML>

Hi ya, I was hoping someone could find the news clipping of my step-grandfather - that my family keeps talking about. One member's mother had it years ago and lost it. I think a picture of the parade, too. The way the story (history) goes, Charles Anderson was a great Indian Fighter & had a big funeral in Queens for him, a parade and all. With his horse pulling his coffin on a caisson. (Sergeant USA Retired) But he was born in 1865 at the end of the Indian War (dates 1869 - 1878) - yet Wounded Knee 1890, was west of the Mississippi & Charles would have been about 25 years old then & lived in NY. How can he be a great Indian fighter? Maybe the News clipping will tell more. Charles Anderson - b. April 2, 1865 - Carmel, NY - d. March 13, 1927 - Queens, NY - buried in St. Michael's Cemetery, Queens, NY - on the 16th. He married my g-grandmother, Ottilia (have wedding cert) 1920 Census said they lived 397 E. 57th. St. Manhattan Thanks for any information & help - June :-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Searching - Howard (Yonkers) - Whalen - (Queens) - Mucci - Maduske & Sloat (NYC) - Crean - Carey (Chicago, IL)

A great new state-specific genealogy search tool is being developed by the people who created RootsWeb! New York is ready for you to use now, as are a few other states - more are being added daily, or as time permits. Just enter your surnames, and have fun! http://laboratory.linkpendium.com/ It is still in beta, and will improve, but has already helped me find two bits of data I did not have for my ancestors in southern states! Remember that the search will improve over the next few weeks and months, so check back often! Carol C. Head cch@netdoor.com, cchcap@comcast.net

My apologies for initiating potential politican debate. Barb NYC Researcher

Since the Al-Quaida terrorist actions against the United States of America at the World Trade Center (NYC), the United States Pentagon (Washington, D.C.), and flight 93, that angel-passengers forced to land in a field in PA, I've become very interested in the selective actions and inactions of the US Immigration and Naturalization Service [changed to USCIS]. In this recent news story released by IrishCentral.com, an 80 year old Irish woman, returning to Boston (where she's resided for 60 years) from Ireland, was *detained* by American officials. SEE:> http://www.irishcentral.com/news/80-year-old-Irish-woman-detained-by-US-immigration-103515094.html This is not to say that there wasn't a reason to question her visa. What is at issue is the cultural selectivity, perhaps even discrimination, that is exemplified here once again and continuing against the Irish. Then again, this isn't a case that required border guards hovering in bushes with night goggles on, protecting our southern borders. Those guys must be playing Rip Van Winkle, to miss the hoards of illegal aliens coming into the southern USA borders daily. Hmmmm sounds like work. Last night's NYC news reported about "in-security" at Newark International Airport. Sure potential passengers remove shoes, belts, jewelry, pass through metal detector s and frisking machines, but have you heard about the trucks entering Newark Airport that escape much less security scrutiny? The NY Port of Authority hires FJC for security to the tune of billions of dollars for Newark and other places in greater NYC. The so called guards, walk the perimeter of trucks, perhaps use a mirror to check the underside, but barely open the rear hatch to check inside! SEE> http://wap.myfoxny.com/w/main/story/14175247/?sp=1 This was ongoing videotaping. When approached by reporters, FJC Senior Vice President Mark Coffino refused to even view the films, nor discuss it. These two separate incidents of today reflect our government's immigration and security issues that are happening now, and will impact genealogy. Barb NYC Researcher

Description: A Self-Reliant Little Woman. Annie KOPPEL, the Immigrant, and Her Young Charges. Date: April 6 1885 Newspaper published in: St. Louis, MO New York, April 6. A little blue eyed, flaxen-haired girl formed the head of a very juvenile procession that filed into Castle Garden from an emigrant barge yesterday morning. The little girl was Annie KOPPEL, 11 years old. She turned around every now and then and gazed solicitously at the rest of the procession, made up of Martha KOPPEL, aged 7, Hans KOPPEL, aged 5, and 2 year old Katie KOPPEL. A big bewhiskered German picked up Katie and set her on one of his mighty shoulders. Katie was delighted, but Annie looked up in alarm and cried to the big German, "Be careful! You will let the child fall." "Never fear, little mother," said the big German, stooping down and stroking Annie's hair with his disengaged hand. The broad, fatherly smile that shone through the big German's whiskers reassured Annie, and she returned to her place at the head of the line. Annie stepped in front of the recording clerk, and told him her name and the names of the rest of the procession. She showed tickets to St. Louis, and said she was going there to meet her mother. "How much money have you got?" asked the clerk. "None." replied Annie. "What are you and the babies going to live on before you get to St. Louis?" Annie said she thought St. Louis was only a little way from Castle Garden, and that she wouldn't need anything until she got there. Then she calmly asked: "How much would be required to feed the children and me?" until they reach St. Louis. Somebody said: "About $2." Annie corrugated her white brow, thought a moment and asked the clerk if he would lend her $2, saying she would give him a receipt for it, and send the money back when she got to her mother. The clerk gave her the money, she made out a receipt, to which she attached her signature in a clear, business-like hand. She put the money in her pocket, turned around and smiled on her smaller companions, and said: "Come on, children," and the procession moved on.

Jack, Thank you very much for your suggestions. I tried checking the 1859 Directory for the alternate spellings under which I've found the name - with no success. I was hoping there might be a map or something that would give a description of the boundaries of the election districts in each ward. I have found maps of the wards. I do recall that there were such descriptions for Philadelphia when I was checking there years ago. Thank you anyway - guess I'll continue my perusal of the pages. Jane

They are in the 11th Ward in both the 1840 and 1850 Censuses. The family lived at 323 8th St. rear according to the 1857 City Directory and also the 1865 Directory. Andrew died and his widow (Kunigunde, Caroline, Julia - she used various names) stayed on at that address until 1878 when she moved to 630 E. 9th until her death in 1893. There were no Election Districts in 1840 nor 1850 and in 1870 that address is in the 12th District. But there isn't any 12th District in 1860. I read more than 1,000 pages in the 1850 before finding them. I have read probably a third or more of the 1860 11th Ward and was hoping there might be some way I could identify the correct district by the address. I have printed out an 1865 map of the Lower E. Side from the www.bklyn-genealogy-info Map and have marked off the 11th Ward. But so far have not found any place that will give me the boundaries of the various districts. I will deeply appreciate any help or suggestions you care to offer.
