<rfinn119@idt.net> requested a search for FINN in Utica from census data 1830-1900. There was nothing in the 1830 census for that surname. 1840: 4th ward FINN, William p. 245 1 free white male under 5 years old; 1 fwm 20 to under 30 years old; 2 free white females under 5; 1 fwf 5 to under 10; 1 fwf 20-30 ~~~~~~~~~~ 1850: 5th ward; Dwelling recorded #173; family recorded #259; all white FINN, Robert age 34 male laborer real estate value: $800 place of birth: Ireland Peggy 30 female pob: NY Mary A. 4 female NY Patrick 2 male NY Michael 1/3 male NY ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I have nothing listed for 1860, but will check it again this coming week. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1870-1900 This is not a time period with indexes, and so I turned to the city directories, thinking I would do a line by line of the census ward in which each FINN was found. It proved so time-consuming, that I can only give what I found for 1870. I will be happy to supply you with the directory listings for the other years, upon request. 1870 City Directory: all FINN Emily A., milliner, boards Third St. near Jay Francis, meat and vegetable market, 60 south, house at same address James B., boards South St. near Leeds Kitty, stocking inspector, house 66 Third St. Robert, laborer, same as last Samuel, brewer, house 31 Third St. Thomas, laborer, boards 31 Saratoga St. William, clerk, 60 South St. ~~~~~~~~~ 1870 Census: Fifth ward; all listed white FINN, Samuel 38 Male brewer pob: England both parents foreign born Harriet 36 Female keeping house pob: England " " " " Emaley 15 F school NY ditto John 15 M all same as last George 6 M NY " Hatty 2 F " " FINN, Robert 55 M laborer $1200 Ireland parents foreign born voter Margarett 50 F kpg. house Ireland ditto Patrick 22 M laborer NY ditto voter Catharine 16 F (illegible) " ditto Robert 15 M at home same as last I hope this is of some help to you.
