Would there possibly be an obit in the Universal Bulletin for a Sophia Pischel that died May 24, 1956? Thanks.........Pat

Could have been church of the Assumption that was on W22nd. I thought mine were at St Malachis because they lived in the place called the "Angle". Try the diocese

I have a few issues of the Catholic Universe Bulletin from the mid 1950's, thought there may be listers who are interested in some of the obits from them. 28 Jan 1955 The Catholic Universe Buletin George J. McDonough Requiem Mass will be offered at 11:30 tomorrow in St. John Cathedral for George J McDonough, 58, a Ward 31 Republican leader who died Tuesday in Highland View Hospital. Burial will be in Calvary Mr. McDonough, a former stagehand and World War I veteran, lived at 1715 E. 19th St. He leaves sisters, Mrs. marguerite Kralvoich, Mrs. Mercedes France, Mrs. Irma Cooley and Helen, and a brother, James.

Jim, Thanks for your guess. I'll let you know someday how I fare with tracking them through the Diocese records. -- Janet ----- Original Message ----- From: James O'Donnell <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, August 16, 2000 7:56 PM Subject: Re: County Archives query... > Janet - > If they lived in the 7th Ward ( near East Side) and were Irish I would guess > their parish was St. Bridget's at Perry near Scovill Ave. Good hunting. > > Jim > > > > Janet wrote: > > > Jim, they were Irish and lived in the 7th Ward in the 1870 census.

Patti - Ward 2 was Downtown Cleveland - and they would have been in St. John Cathedral Parish , but being Irish I would guess they went to St. Malachy's - not a far walk!

Jim - Could you make another guess? My Irish relatives lived in WARD 2 around 1860. I'd love to know what parish they belonged to so I can try to dig up some records. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Janet - If they lived in the 7th Ward ( near East Side) and were Irish I would guess their parish was St. Bridget's at Perry near Scovill Ave. Good hunting. Jim Janet wrote: > Jim, they were Irish and lived in the 7th Ward in the 1870 census. I'd sure > appreciate a good guess! > -- Janet

Carolyn, Did happen to see any Edmenson,Edmonson on the Cleverland Directory? George or Harvey Edmenson lost somewhere in Cleaveland. I would to find out where they are. Any help would make a lots of different to about five researchers. Thanks Ruth

Janet........I went to the Fairview Library today and had to look for O'Neil; so while I was into the films, I made you copies of the Goldricks. I printed up: 1861\1862; 1863\1864; 1865\1866; 1866\1867; 1867\1868; 1868\1869; 1869\1870; 1870\1871; 1871\1872; 1872\1873; 1874\1875. If you will contact me via email at [email protected] with your address, I will be more than glad to send them to you.............Pat

Janet, Here I am again. Miles GOLDRICK in 1895 was a bridge builder and his address was Dana Street which was between St. Clair & Superior near downtown. Carolyn

Janet, Have you asked the Archives if there are any Goldrick naturalization records? Did you look at any marriage records while you were there? Carolyn

Janet, I have an 1895 Cleveland City Directory which lists these GOLDRICK's: Eugene & Mrs. Maria at 37 Delaware; Anna & Philip at 32 Whitehead (Anna is Goldrich); other names (I believe all on east side of Cleveland) are Annie, Frank P., Mattie (widow of Henry), Miles, Peter J., & Thomas. Carolyn

Dear Janet - This has nothing to do with the Cleveland part of the GOLDRICK research but I suspect Jim asked if your GOLDRICKS were Irish because there were many Palintinates ( Germans) that settled in Ireland , and therefore, many came to America from Ireland............... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Janet" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, August 15, 2000 9:58 PM Subject: Re: County Archives query... > Jim, they were Irish and lived in the 7th Ward in the 1870 census.

Good I'm glad I could help, even alittle.

Thanks so much! Every little bit helps when you are trying to sort all these folks out. P.J. was my grandfather and John was his brother ( I didn't know where he lived), but I'm going to have to fit those other 3 fellows into my puzzle somewhere. -- Janet > Janet, > I realize that you are looking for information from earlier directories, but > I have only the 1942 Cleveland Directory, and the following GOLDRICK names > are listed: > > Arthur D. 13637 Cedar > Howard E. 10206 Wilbur > John L. 3640 W. 133 > Louis E. 2146 E. 107 > P.J. 3132 W. 101 > >

Jim, they were Irish and lived in the 7th Ward in the 1870 census. I'd sure appreciate a good guess! -- Janet

Janet - if you know what Ward they lived in, from the 1870 census, I can probably make a good guess as to what parish they were in. Were they German?

Janet, I realize that you are looking for information from earlier directories, but I have only the 1942 Cleveland Directory, and the following GOLDRICK names are listed: Arthur D. 13637 Cedar Howard E. 10206 Wilbur John L. 3640 W. 133 Louis E. 2146 E. 107 P.J. 3132 W. 101

I live in New Jersey and got to spend 2 1/2 hours in Cleveland at the Archives last month while my husband, daughter and dog killed time waiting for me. I'm sure you all realize that's nowhere near enough time to spend at the Archives doing family research. I have been purchasing my own copies of the census, but I find that I need information from City Directories to narrow down their exact addresses. I want to know which parish my family might have belonged to so I can write to the Diocese for baptismal and marriage information. The period of time I'm interested in is 1854-1870. My family's name is GOLDRICK. In the 1870s there were about 4 GOLDRICK families in Cleveland. They were all from Ireland. I strongly suspect that they were related, but I haven't been able to establish that yet, so I was hoping that if some of them were sponsors or witnesses at baptisms or marriages in my family, it would indicate that they were related somehow. My own gr gr grandfather was Miles GOLDRICK and I'm trying to find out where he came from in Ireland ... I thought if one of these other fellows was a brother or cousin, I might have better luck tracing one of them. Anyway, is it too much to ask the Archives to look up 10 years of information in the city directories? Should I ask for the information in smaller increments? Thanks in advance for all your useful advice ... Janet in Hunterdon Co., NJ

Thanks, Judith. This information is very helpful. I'll give it a try. I'm trying to establish relationships between 4 GOLDRICK families in Cleveland in the 1870s and 80s. I'm sure they must be related, so I thought if some of the others showed up on my relatives' records as sponsors or witnesses, it might indicate that they at least knew each other.
