Well, then, here is my problem. Back when I started research, and didn't know what I was doing, I used the wrong census record to construct the family for a child of my g grandfather. I just received some really scanty buriel records for his family plot and found out that he died quite early. In fact, looking at a city directory, and the fact that he died one month and a 5 month old baby died the next month ( the addresses being nearly the same) made me think that he had recently married, had a child and then at least he and the baby died. After that he doesn't appear in the city directory. He died in 1895, so in 1880 he is still at home and in 1890 there is no census and obviousley he isnt the one I found on the 1910 census. I only have a buried date of Aug 6, 1895- how can I find out his death date, wife's name, if the baby is his, and of what they died?

His name was Phillip Scherrer, son of Peter Scherrer and Elizabeth Pohle Scherrer. There were 6 Peter Scherrerrs in NYC at the time. Peter was a blacksmith and after Phillips death, it looks like they developed a livery and funeral business in a different part of town, and all moved out of the area they were in- Scherrer Brothers- some of the older boys becoming a part of it and possibly a brother or two.. Phillip was born about 1858, and had the following siblings, whom you can only find on the 1880 census- Barbara, George, Mary, Evangeline, Anne, Edward, and a William who missed on that census. Phillip died at 935 9th Ave and was interred on August 6, 1885, and the baby, Ernst, died at 931 9th Ave, and was interred on July 12, 1885. ( looks like the baby died first, not later) and his ; the mother was interred Aug 18, 1878, address being 633 9th Ave. There are some variations in their 9th Ave address in the city directories. I don't know if this means they owned several buildings or it was just an error in the directory. I know all of the marriages except William. Now I don't know Phillips.

Peter died in 1895- the fourth one you mention is the correct one, but Phillip was born in 1858, according to the census and died in 1885, according to the internment age 28 years 2 month 10 days.
