Hibernia is the Latin name for Ireland.

Hi Judith: Can you give specifics on the Akron Public Library? Location hrs and days it is open access to census records--limits availability, etc. Thank you Bob W.

Thanks to all who've responded, and especially Joe Egan for his very helpful list of Latin name equivalents. It was extremely helpful. Thanks again to all. Tim Kane

Oops..misspelled Hibernian on the last message...sorry. Re: the Latin names...the LDS have a valuable little pamphlet..I think it's under $1..."Genealogical Word List.......Latin" which gives variant forms, plurals, grammatical use, genders and Key Word section...also an dictionary of Latin words and their meanings.. so you can understand the documents. So if the ancestor your searching is "alemannus" you can look in the dictionary and see that he is German. It's compact and designed for genealogical use. Also there is a book: by Charles trice Martin: "The Record Interpreter: A Collection of Abbreviations Latin Words and Names Used in English Historical Manuscripts and Records" 2nd ed. London: Stevens, 1910 (the LDS Family History Center has this on film: 547,182 item 3 on the film. There should be a Family History Center listed in your phone book probably under Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) Best of luck to you!

Judith, Thanks for posting such a comprehensive listing of research suggestions. I'm from Lorain county and it was a nice break down for all of us not familiar with Cuyahoga County holdings. Jean C.

Hello Carole. I will take a look around. Coventry is in Summit Co, which Akron serves. There are some cemetery inscription books for the county, including Coventry. Any death records that might exist-- which could be iffy, would be at the county courthouse, which is down the street. If the weather turns nice I will hop donw there on my lunch hour and look for you. We have county hsitories too, which might have something. I will let yoiu know.

Thanks a lot for the information. It's very helpful to me. Janet

I just want to Thank everyone for the wonderful inputs and offers. Thanks to you all, I think I can concentrate on certain areas. From your inputs, I found that I could save time by requesting the documents I can request by mail. I knew I could do that on death/birth certs, but I wanted to find out about all these people on the CLENEX that I found....how to I get a hold of those obits.....your inputs lead me to where I can request them, for 3 copies I can do it by email, for more there's a cost and they can give me an estimate before I even request them. So I can take care of that by mail, but thank you to those who offered to get them for me. So now that I got the death/birth certs, and the CLENEX out of the way, there's the 1920 census...well I know that's time consuming but I can alway do that here at our local LDS Library. So I think I'll concentrate on finding about the death of my gr grandfather Charles Halligan who died between 1904 and 1910; he would have been about 36 in 1910 but was deceased by then. I'm also going to concentrate on checking out the cemetries, Calvary, Holy Cross, and Lakewood Park. I'm going to talk to all the relatives....see if I can get any leads and find Danny Corrigan who has already done a lot on the Corrigans. (Maybe Doyles too, since Bridget Corrigan's maiden name is Doyle). If I have time for anything else....I'll go for it. I probably will have more time in Columbus than Cleveland so I will check out the OHS for sure...maybe spend a day or two there. Well again thank you all. Colleen

Personally.....I check with a local Catholic Church. If I remember correctly all the priest learn latin as part of their profession. I know I've gone to mass on several occassions...usually on certain special occassions the mass is in latin. I'll ask my mom, she use to take latin too and I think she was the one who told me about latin and the church.

Judith, very good advice to Colleen and I need to do the same trip! Hopefully in the Spring. You mentioned you work in the Akron Library. I am wondering if you could check on something. Susanna Geigler Willard died between 1844 and before the 1850 census. Husband was Henry Willard and they lived in Coventry Twp. I cannot locate a date of death for her or where she is buried. Have looked at various books at the Stark County District Library and there was no mention of her. Do you have additional books in Akron that might show this information? Thanks, if you can look around for me. Carole in Georgia ----- Original Message ----- From: "J.

Several months ago someone (Eleanor?) posted a list of the members of the Hibernian Guards (Co. "B" 8th OVI) regiment in the Civil War. I seem to have lost the file with the names. Does anyone still have it in their files? If so, could you re-post it. I would be ever so grateful. Thanks. Janet in N.J.

Does anybody know a website that has translations of given names from Latin (NOT Spanish) to English equivalents. As I'm sure many of you have also discovered, nineteenth century Catholic church records (baptisms, marriages, etc.) in Ireland (and presumably elsewhere) were usually written in Latin, including the given names of the principals, their parents, witnesses, etc. I can get adequate translations of the body of the registers and docs with my HS Latin, but the given names need to be completely accurate. Some are intuitive, some not. Currently I'm stuck on "Joamis." Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Tim

Judith, Your information was great and should be very helpful not only for Colleen but for others planning a trip to Cleveland. One fact needs correction - Death Certificates from the OHS in Columbus, by mail, are now $ 1.00, not $ 3.00. Jim "J.

Hello Colleen. Yes, this is a lot, for one visit, and you can accomplish some of them in different areas. It rather depends on your major priorities & what time period they serve. Since you will already BE in Columbus, you might want to avoid the 2 hr drive to Cleveland and spend some time at the OH Historical Society, which is off I71 and clearly marked on the highway. There you will find all OH death certificates from 1908-1944. They are currently indexed on the web through 1938, so you cold check the OHS website and see if you can locate the cert. numbers in advance. It will save you a lot of time and you can go straight to the correct microfilm roll & print out at $.25 each instead of $3 mail order. They also have some OH newspapers-- check the website for their holdings. I have had luck finding obits there in small town newspapers, so they may have the PD as well. The OHS library is open every day but Mon., I believe. Check the site in case hours have changed. http://www.ohiohistory.org If you want the obits, you can go to the Fairview Park Branch of the Cuy. County Library and print them out for free. They also have complete census films for their county and SOME other OH counties; but if you want to search Stark of Summit as well as Cuy.-- near neighbors as they are-- they choose not to carry them. At Fairview Park, you will also find the "Necrology File," where early newspaper obits are indexed-- from the late 1880's on; plus an index to early cemetery burials, so you can find family this way too. You can then head to the PD drawers to see the obits indexed-- indexing ends in 1975, which is where Clenix comes in handy. Copies used to be free there. The library staff will make copies & send them by mail for free also, within reason. They also have city directories on film & in book form, both for Cleveland & other major cities toward the end of the 19th century. I believe they have a complete run of Cleveland, or pretty close. That is very helpful in tracking location of family. Here is the address; Fairview Park Regional 21255 Lorain Road Fairview, OH 44126-2120 Cuyahoga County Voice: (440) 333-4700 They are open daily except Sun. In Akron, where I work, the Main Library has ALL OH census records and soundex. Cost of copies is a nickel. Newspaper on microfilm is the Akron Beacon Journal. We are open daily through the school year. If you go to a Cleveland cemetery, try to write ahead for location of relatives and a map. Offices are staffed, where they exist, Mon-Fri during the day and Sat. mornings. No one is there on Sun. Calvary will look up one or two folks while you wait, but they will send extensive info via mail. Some of the old Cleve Irish cemeteries like St. Joseph & ST. John, do not have an office, so you must get your info ahead. Allow at least a month. They may give you info over the phone, but you will need a map for the bigger cemeteries. There are Cleve city cemeteries, too, like Woodland, with no office. Here is the address for the Cath. Cemeteries in the Diocese: Catholic Cemetery Commission 10000 Miles Rd. P.O. Box 605310 Cleveland OH 44105 If you are in search of older family and are coming up during the work week, first stop should be the Cuy. County Archives. You will find original marriage licenses, naturalization records (for those nat. in Cleve. only); the Necrology Index; and all birth records through the early 20th century for the county as well as all death records that exist-- remember, early record keeping was spotty at best, through 1907. Yes, you can get copies while you wait. They are open from 8:45-4:45 M-F only, which is why I would prioritize them if that is what you want to research. They are also happy to help with mail inquiries. Cuyahoga County Archives 2905 Franklin Blvd. Cleveland OH 44113 http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohcuyaho/archives.htm Happy hunting!

Hi List I've decided to join my parents on a trip to Ohio. We're going to Columbus, but plan to visit Cleveland. I may only have a couple of hours to do any research so I need some recommendations.

Ed, my husband is a Collins. His grandmother was named Bridget O'Malley. She died in 1935, was born in Ireland. She attended St. patrick's church. In fact she was buried from that church. She had one daughter named Hatti and 5 sons- Joseph,William, Frank, Edward, James. If this sounds like there is a connection e-mail me at [email protected]

One of the kind listers sent one address for St. Thomas Aquainas Church, and another sent another address, as shown below. Any idea which is currently correct? Is the office different from the church info? St. Thomas Aquinas Church is at 1230 Ansel Rd. Cleveland St. Thomas Aguinas-St. Philip Neri 9101 Superior Ave. Cleveland, Ohio 44106 Tel-216-421-4668
