Use the links and follow the instructions. BTW, in Preview this is all one paragraph, which is not how I wrote it, so sorry if it comes out that way. Start here:http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/stevemorse/census/quizremote.php Go the bottom of the page and "click here" when you're ready to begin. Next page: "Do you know". Answer Yes, and continue. Next page: "Did they move?" Well, we're looking at an institution,so forget the family and just answer "Yes, they stayed put" for the patient. Answer "No, they stayed put" and continue. Next page: Are you willing to do a little extra work? Answer "Sure, I've got plenty of time", and continue. Next page: CLICK ON #3, IN AN INSTITUTION. VERY IMPORTANT! and continue. Click on the One Step ED Definition Tool, in the second line of text. You'll see a pop up for Unified 1940. Click OK. Next page: FIRST change the state to NY, the County to Queens, and leave it as all EDs. Put Creedmoor in the Keywords. You will see this: [IMG]http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f23/Upthespout/One times/CreedmoorcensusEDs.jpg[/IMG] Click on one of the ED numbers (i.e. , 41-778, and it will take you to the viewer. Select the viewer you want to use. (I like NARA because its very easy to go back and forth, but Ancestry has a typed list on the left of the transcribed name). It's whatever you like. And then you'll see this! [IMG]http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f23/Upthespout/One times/Cmore41-779pg17.jpg[/IMG] Happy hunting!

Author: bari_burke Surnames: CREEDMOOR STATE:Admissions & history Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.queens/4143.4/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Creedmoor opened for clients shortly before 1910. Everyone who searches INSTITUTIONS: orphanages, psychiatric hospitals,TB hospitals,prisons, etc. should be aware of a few things. Many of these began as small, local, evenly privately owned places (some run by doctors in their own homes),eventually NYS ursurped them. Caroline's story of two commitments to Creedmoor is a sad one, AND it was once easier to have a person committed based on say-so. Over time, laws changed and medical evaluations became necessary, or police reports of irregular behavior & arrests were used to commit a person to any instituton. As one psych hospital advised me about an ancestor in the 1930s: (1) a psychiatric diagnosis of the past may not mean what it means today, and (2) many of yesterday's patients would be treated with prescriptions today, and they would not be institutionalized, but living free. I have to check my books to fully respond to the writer, about books available. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Dear friends, In the metro NYC area, so far, 16,639 people have signed the pledge to " support public television and oppose efforts to cut federal funding for local public television stations!!!" This data is straight from PBS. They seek those in the NYC metro viewing area to "take a stand," as they state by signing on; they are not seeking donations. Does PBS programmig enhance your love of genealogy and history? Then, please view their link , and let American voices ring> http://support.thirteen.org/site/PageServer?pagename=pubtv_pledge& s_13web=13email Thanks, Barb
On Sunday, October 28 at 1:00 pm, Loretto (Lou) Szucs and Juliana (Szucs) Smith of Ancestry.com, the largest online genealogical research website and database repository in the world, will join the New York Irish History Roundtable to describe Ancestry’s online holdings. Their presentation will emphasize content concerning Irish and Irish-American genealogical research – with a focus on the New York City area. Of particular interest will be the recently-released U.S. Federal Census of 1940, which has caused a great excitement in the genealogical research community. There will be time for questions and answers in this presentation, and there will be demonstrations of online sources of information. Please note: this is a Sunday program that begins at 1:00 p.m. It will take place in the McCloskey Room, Parish House for St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral, 263 Mulberry Street. A coffee/tea reception will follow ($3 suggested donation). There is NO admission fee for this event, and everyone is welcome to join us! Jim Garrity
