Dear list, One of my great-grandmothers was born in Syracuse. I have found her family in most of the 1860+ censes, but I'm not sure exactly when her father died. I have a few questions that maybe someone who knows Syracuse well can answer for me. Question 1. I believe I have found her father in the 1890 Civil War Schedule to the Census, at 911 Mulberry Street. With a little google research, I'm guessing that is now 911 South State Street. In the 1880 Census the family lived in Ward 5. Can someone verify for me if the address known as '911 Mulberry Street' in Syracuase in 1890 would have been in Ward 5 in 1880? Question 2. Our family history records say that his wife was buried in St. Agnes Cemetery in 1889. The family is found in Ward 5 in 1880 & 1870, and in Ward 7 in 1860. The father was (William Leonard LILLY) was an Irish (Roman Catholic) famine immigrant, and the mother (Elizabeth RANDALL) was born in Canada to a British soldier and a Quebequois woman. The marriage was in Syracuse in 1850, and the children were all raised Catholic and born between 1854 and 1873. Can someone out there who knows Syracuse well comment on likely parishes to contact looking for baptismal, marriage & death records, given the information above? I know so little about Syracuse and its history, and I'm not having good look spelunking on the web for Catholic information for Syracuse.
