When I have not been able to find a passenger on it. I would like to go right to the passenger list for the Kensington which arrived in the USA on September 12,1990. While I cannot find my grandfather Janos Tegyi on any passenger list, he stated in his first papers that ship and that date. Thanks Elizabeth V.

I checked the IGG which has a wonderful data base of deaths in Queens county between 1898 and 1929. Conclusion: Died sometime between 1880 and 1898. Too bad 1890 census does not exist. Maybe if I save my pennies, I could have the Municipal archives find their death certificates for me <grin> Sometimes you just have to laugh...it is better for you than crying. If you aren't familiar with the IGG the website is http://www.italiangen.org/ Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/Garden/4548/

Mary, I never thought to use that resource as they lived in Queens but I just tried it and came up with nothing. Thanks again Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/Garden/4548/

Thank you to everyone who tried to find my great great grandparents...Jacob and Elisabeth Frey/Frei/Frey. They are eluding me <grin> and yet I have now been able with the help of many to trace them back to the early 1700's in Bavaria. One reason I am trying to track them down, is to try and find death certificates for both of them and also to find out where they are buried. Their son Jacob buried his first wife in Calvary but he, his second wife and a daughter and son and law and down the line another generation are all buried in Flushing Cemetery. If they are in Calvary, I do not stand a chance of finding them without a date. I have written a letter to Flushing Cem. To see if they can help me. Thanks again. Elizabeth V.

Thank you... I apologize for not giving more information....Eva could be Elizabeth....I guess.... Jacob Frey Jrs. Wife was definitely not EVA...his first wifes name was Francisca and she had died by then. His second wifes name was Louise. I am beginning to conclude that the elder Freys....Jacob and Elisabeth died before the 1900 census. Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/Garden/4548/

It is possible ....are there children living with them....and what are the ages of Jacob and Eva? Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/Garden/4548/

I doubt that is mine.... Jacob was born in 1818 and was 62 in 1880. Elisabeth was born in 1826 and was 54 in 1880. It is possible they called her Eva. Elizabeth Elizabeth V. Cardinal evc1369@comcast.net http://www.geocities.com/Wellesley/Garden/4548/

Elizabeth, have you looked for a death notice/obit in the Brooklyn Daily Eagle online? http://www.brooklynpubliclibrary.org/eagle/index.htm Elizabeth V Cardinal <evc1369@comcast.net> wrote: Thank you to everyone who tried to find my great great grandparents...Jacob and Elisabeth Frey/Frei/Frey.

There is a Jacob Frey with wife Eva and some children in Queens in 1900...could they be the ones you are looking for? Elizabeth

If you have access to the above sentences would you kindly do a look up for me, please. I am trying to find Jacob Frey/Fry/Frei and his wife Elizabeth on those particular records. They lived in Queens in 1880 but I can't read the street address on Amazon as I no longer have a membership. I have no clue when they died so am hoping they were alive then. Thank You Elizabeth V.

The National Rifle Association (NRA) was formed in 1871. The first year of the NRA existence passed by quietly. Real progress began in 1872 when, under President William Church and Secretary George Wingate, the New York Legislature was induced to appropriate $25,000 for the purchase of a range near New York City, the Association agreeing to raise $5,000 on its part. After a protracted search for a suitable piece of land at a reasonable price, the NRA was able to purchase a plot owned by the Central and North Side Railroad of Long Island. Seeing that the Association's plans were likely to stimulate rail travel, the railroad company had agreed to sell the seventy acre plot at low cost. This farmland had formerly been owned by the Creed family. The gentleman credited with naming the new range was Colonel Henry Shaw, a member of the range committee of the NRA. On arriving at Creed's Farm and observing the open, desolate field, with coarse scanty grass and brambles he declared it a veritable moor, Creed's Moor. Hence by a happy inspiration and coincidence "Creedmoor" became the name of the new range. It was essentially used as a training ground for the NY Natioanl Guard, however a few individuals formed the Amateur Rifle Club of New York purely for the purpose of recreational target shooting. In 1873 Ireland beat, for the first time, England and Scotland in a 'home countries international match' for the Elcho Shield. Flushed with success they challenged the riflemen of America to competition. The Amateur Rifle Club accepted the challenge and the match took place at Creedmoor in 1874 before an audience of 5,000 spectators. Shooting was at 800, 900 and 1000 yards. America won. There was a return match in Ireland in 1875 (again won by the US) and 30,000 spectators turned up!! Some reports say even more.... As part of the Centennial Celebrations of 1876 an international competition took place at Creedmoor. America beat Australia, Canada, Ireland and Scotland. In 1877 America beat a Great Britain team at Creedmoor. This was the last of the short series of international target rifle matches held at Creedmoor. An American team came to Ireland in 1880, where they again won, but an unofficial team then going on to Wimbledon, England, were badly beaten. In 1882, at Creedmoor, and 1883, at Wimbledon, were two military rifle matches. Both of these were won by Great Britain. Public interest eventually waned and the matches went into decline, until in 1890 Creedmoor was deeded back to the state of New York and the NRA became dormant. Activities were not revived again until 1900. Creedmoor range remained in use until the opening years of the 20th Century, with shooting ceasing c1910. In 1908 Creedmoor State Hospital acquired the site, and in 1912 opened the Farm Colony of Brooklyn State Hospital with thirty-two patients. Today it is the site of the Creedmoor Psychiatric Center. I am always interest in reports of shooting events at Creedmoor rifle range and anything at all associated with the Amateur Rifle Club of New York. I am also building a library of biographies of International Riflemen and always on the look out for data. David ... in the UK --------------------------------- ALL-NEW Yahoo!

Elizabeth I didn't find them in either 1900 or 1910. Is there any chance Elizabeth could be enumerated as Eva? In both 1900 and 1910 I found a Jacob and Eva Frey in Queens. Just no Jacob and Elizabeth.
