Hi Listers, I recently received a note from a relative that said my great-uncle, "Joseph Henry Egan, married Sophia Miller in 1905 at St. Peter's Church (Lutheran), Cleveland, Ohio." The 1910 U.S. Census showed Joseph was married for 3 years which would indicate a 1906 or 1907 marriage. Would anyone know if there was a St. Peter's Lutheran Church in Cleveland during the 1905-1910 timeframe? Switchboard.com shows a St Peter & St Paul Lutheran Church at 13030 Madison Ave, Cleveland, OH. Also shown is a St Peter's Lutheran Church located at 18000 Van Aken Blvd, Cleveland, OH. Could either of these be the same church as the St. Peter's refered to in the note I recieved? Many thanks, Joe Egan San Diego

On the census what street did they live on. the Church on Madison is a Westside of Cleveland and the one on Van Aken Blvd. is an Eastside of Cleveland church. If your not sure what street they lived on go back to the census and look in the margin on the left side of the document and find the address they live at. Then you'll know what church to try first. It seem to me if I lived on the the westside of the city I would get married on the westside. Hope I helped. Lee "Joseph R.

Both unlikely -they are far West side and far East side. Probably not in existence in 1906. Jim "Joseph R.
