Author: Roadsurfer Surnames: BROWN, MULLY / MULLEY Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.kings/15538/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Four apparent BROWN siblings are enumerated with Peter and Ann MULY (MULLY/MULLEY) in the 1850 U.S. Census in Williamsburg. I am particularly interested in the Brown children: Edward, 13, b NJ; Sarah, 11, b NY, Agnes, 8 b NY, and Rebecca, 5, b NY. It's possible, of course, that the Brown children are Ann's and that Ann was widowed and remarried. In the 1860 census, my GGgrandfather Edward Brown is enumerated in Brooklyn (Williamsburg P.O.), 14th Ward, 1st District, dwelling 300. Ann Mlly (Mully), with Agnes J. and Rebecca A. Brown, are enumerated in the same ward, same district, at dwelling 316. I'm hoping that the 1850 and the 1860 Edward Browns are the same person. Anyone out there researching these Browns or Mullys?--Sandy Brown Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

R. (Van Rensalaer) Hall. Considering VR's first name, one would think that genealogical research would be simple, yet this has been a true exercise in futility. Although buried at Cypress Hills National Cemetery (V.R. Hall BTSN US Navy Buried at: Section 6 Site 12210 Cypress Hills National Cemetery 625 Jamaica Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208 US Navy Boatswain, 1836) the cemetery records include only the above in addition to an interment date of April 11, 1926. Cypress Hills suggested I contact the Brooklyn Navy yard because they said that they received "reburials" from the Brooklyn Navy Yard Cemetery and this may be the case OR his remains may have arrived from overseas in 1926. There is a government issued gravestone. The archivist at the Brooklyn Navy Yard was unable to find "any" burial records in the Brooklyn Navy Yard archives and had me call the NARA Northeastern District office in Manhattan who also could not find the burial records. I am hoping that someone may have some insight since V.R. was obviously in the Navy yet there are no service records to be found and although I do have 1840 and 1850 census records and the burial information, neither NYC nor Brooklyn have a death certificate registered (that may indicate death at sea), there seems to be no official records. I do have the following documentation: · V.R. Hall was the Boatswain for vessel RELEASE (sent with the Arctic) ordered by the US Navy and US Congress who appropriated $150,000 for this country`s third expedition to the Arctic, a rescue operation to find famed Arctic navigator and explorer Dr. Elisha Kent Kane. The vessels left the Brooklyn Navy yard on April 30, 1855 at 3PM to much fanfare and excitement. The vessels eventually found Dr. Kane and in the process was the expedition to go farther north then any vessels in history (78 degrees north latitude) except that of Dr. Kane expedition which went 82 degree 30 minute north. The Arctic and Release brought the good doctor and his surviving party home to a heroes welcome October 10, 1855. Detailed article dated October 12, 1855 NY Times. · From the Brooklyn Eagle, April 17, 1845..."NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.-We understand that the United States ship Columbus and sloop of war Vincennes are to be fitted out immediately for sea, destined for the East Indies. The followin! g is a list of officers, so far ordered: Boatswain-VR HAll." I would appreciate any information anyone could provide.

Apparently many events were not filed with the county and some of those that were were not indexed correctly. You can try an online index at: http://www.italiangen.org/ This is a transcroption of the index at the Municipal Archives, so if you cannot find the certificate number you might be better off trying to figure out where the ceremony was performed. If you can get to the Archives there is record of Mariage licenses which is somewhat more comprehensive then the Index of Brides, but I don't know for sure what year they started it, nor do I know if the Latter Day Saints have a copy of it.

It only costs $4.00 for a certificate or only $2.00 per certificate if you have more than one to order. It says it takes 4-6 weeks for delivery (which isn't really very long), but when I ordered I received my certificates in less than two weeks. If you need help finding the correct page, information you need (like the correct film #) and the form to order, let me know and I'll try to help you. It isn't really easy to find on the website (someone had to help me). Luana Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
