I am new to this list, and wondering if there is anyone who could give me some pointers? My great aunt,"Annie" Shuler (Golda Amita Shuler) lived in Hamilton County during the era of at least 1900 through 1910 and possibly until 1920. She was listed in the 1900 census as living at the Catholic school/dormitory, called "House of the Good Shepherd," in Cincinnati. She was listed as "Laundress." (She was 17 years old at the time) By 1910 she was living at the same place, but it was then called "Mount St. Mary's Convent of the Good Shepherd," and occupation is listed as none, just "inmate". I would like to know if she is buried in Hamilton County. I believe her death year was 1920. I would also like to know who to correspond with to find out the details about her stay at the Catholic school/dorm. I have been in touch with a very nice gentleman, who has a web site of all Catholic affiliations in Cincinnati, but he was unable to be of help, at this time. Her parents, Alexander Ham! ilton Shuler and Esther Jane Hacket Shuler are both buried in Letart Cemetery in Meigs County, but no record of "Annie." ANY idea's on who to contact? I do know from family members that "Annie" never married, so I assume she stayed at the dorm until her death. Thank you, Edna Shuler Stobart Miami, FL

Linda, I'm sure I speak for many grateful people when I tell you what a fabulous job you have done with the Hamilton County website. Thank you so much for your dedication and all your countless hours of hard work. Helen

I just thought I'd let everyone know that I just uploaded the "revised" cemetery page for Hamilton Co., OH GenWeb ALHN. I still have some things to add, but decided it was far enough along now that I could upload. Besides the updated Cemetery page also check the update page as there were some new things I was able to add to other sections as I was off doing searches for information for the Cemeteries. :-) You can find links to both pages here: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohhamilt/mnpg.html Linda Boorom

Send it, and I'll try, Lori.

Thanks Donna, I am sending you the image. I can not figure out how to copy the info to put into any of the translator sites. I don't seem to be able to just copy the text, only the whole image. I can put that in an e-mail but I can't get it to go into the translation box at the web sites.

To translate documentes you can try a free site called Babel Fish. http://babelfish.altavista.com/ You can translate from multiple languages using the "from and to" pull down bar below the text box. Often you have to "read between the lines" depending on the quality of your original document and the transcription. Also, most libraries have a list of common terms used in foreign language obituaries. I've found that to be very helpful.

Hello from Germany, the German equivalent for John is Johann. Jonathan has exact the same spelling but a different intonation! Therefore I don't believe Jno is derived from German.

Actually, what Ancestry.com has done is construct a kind of "substitute" for the 1890 census by using city directories, phone books, and other name-specific sources for the states counties and cities , and they keep adding to it. It's going to be invaluable to have all the "name lists" in one place on Ancestry, and they've done a wonderful job so far. Also, don't forget that the 1890 VETERAN'S Census was not destroyed, so if you have someone who fought in the Civil War, and who may have still been living (or whose widow might still have been living) in 1890, you might check there as well. It even gives, if applicable, any wounds suffered in the war, and the unit they fought in. So, even though the general 1890 census is gone, many organizations are doing their best to fill in the gaps. Don't forget to check county websites as well for birth, marriage, city directories, etc. for the period. These resources vary widely from county to county, but it's worth a shot! And t! hank, you, Milly, for offering to use your resources on Ancestry to do lookups!

The German name would be Johann, so that doesn't make any more sense than Jno. for John or Jonathan, does it? I have seen it for nationalities other than German.
