This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Obrine, O'brien Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2RB.2ACE/8444.1 Message Board Post: A transcription of the 1880 US census is online at www.familysearch.org. There is a Mary Obrine listed as 3 years old, in Canton, with father Michael age 50 and mother Bridget age 45. No other children are listed and given the parents ages, I would guess Mary is the youngest. There is a transcription of the 1870 census for the county at www.usgenweb.org (click 'NY' then follow links to St. Lawrence county). There are many variations of O'Brian, O'Brian and Obrine and some Bridgets and Michaels you may want to check. The usgenweb county site has many cemetery, newspaper, church and other records you may want to review. Hope this helps - Russ Sprague Kensington, Maryland
