    3. Most of my Irish relatives move around like crazy. One family had eight addresses in 20 years, all in Yorkville.

The construction of elevated trains along Second and Third Avenues enticed many to Yorkville, which extends from 59th to 96th Street, and from the East River to Fifth Avenue. German families and immigrants, along with a large group of Irish, were particularly attracted to Yorkville. Brownstones and tenements were built for the laborers who worked at the Ehret's and Ruppert's breweries, or who crossed the East River at 92nd Street for an easy ferry ride to the Steinway Piano Factory in Queens.               The influx of Catholics soon overflowed Yorkville's primary church, St. Lawrence O'Toole (now St. Ignatius Loyola), founded in 1851 on East 84th Street. New churches were established by the Archdiocese, including St. Monica's (1879) on East 79th, St. Jean Baptiste (1882) on Lexington Avenue at East 76th Street, Our Lady of Good Counsel (1886) on East 90th Street, St. Joseph's (1888) on East 87th Street, St. Elizabeth of Hungary (1891) on East 83rd Street, and St. Stephen of Hungary (1902) on East 82nd Street. Thomas H. Poole designed the Church of Our Lady of Good Counsel, which was completed in 1892.

    1. [NYNEWYOR] Certificate "not found"
    2. mizscarlettny via
    3. Someone asked about a certificate request that was returned "not found." Here's just one example of a transcription error in the IGG/GGG Index. When searching either the Bride or Groom [below], neither had a click-through spouse noted. or Charles. [Bride] McCloskey Anne Jun 13 1878 Cert # 374 Kings [Groom] Valentine Charles Jun 13 1878 Cert #1349 Kings These two were married to each other on 13 June 1878. Note the different certificate numbers? Someone made a transcribing error.. I viewed both certificates by County, Event, Year/Date, and certificate number, not by name. My hunch was right. Cert # 374 means that it was the 374th Marriage in Brooklyn that year. That number is way too low for a populated city in mid-June. What one one transcriber saw as #374 another saw as #1349. This is why you can't assume that any index is absolutely correct. You have to see the original documents.. Barb
