Beverly and Annie, I do not know whether you caught it when I sent the headstones, but FM Caldwell has the initials MD after his name. Helen

Annie, There is a list of most of the stones in Birmingham Cemetery on Norm Meinert's website. We read all of the older sections and plan on doing the rest "come Spring". I also have photos of some of the stones. Nancy Long On Wed, Dec 22, 2010 at 11:36 AM, annie <1anniesquest4me@bellsouth.net>wrote: > I am so hoping some people are there, too.

Oh my goodness. Merry Christmas to me!!! You have just solved a huge mystery for me-- and all with the name Elizabeth Treusch!!!!!!! Let me explain--- Elizabeth Troech is listed as a cousin in the 1935 memorial book for the death of Austin McClain Brendel--- and her name was listed under the name of Dr Frank Caldwell and above the names of Frank's married children. I had wondered who she was and why she was listed as cousin-- so-- Beverly ( and all who are following this little story) there is no doubt in my mind now that Maria Margaretha NEU (b. Feb 1871) is indeed the wife of Francis McClain Caldwell and is the one who is buried in the plot as Margaret CALDWELL (1871-1957) - she was called Maggie by my family-- and her sister should be the Elizabeth TREUSCH listed in the NEU family plot-- ta da!! I knew Elizabeth was a cousin- but I didn't know if it was a McClain or a Caldwell connection--- now I see it clearly!! Elizabeth went to the funeral of Frank's first cousin, Austin--- They so all knew each other!!!! BTW- Austin is buried at Southside with his mother, his grandmother, and my grandparents and my great grandparents Super present for me-- and, absolutely, I have a house number for you in the spring!

Your welcome! I had to go back to the original message to find it. Deb -----Original Message----- Deb: Thank you very much. I spent 3 hours yesterday trying to find that. Turns out it was mine. Larry

Annie and Beverly, Have you considered the Birmingham Cemetery on Brownsville Rd as a burial site for the missing ancestors. I have not done that cemetery as it is huge. But it was a favorite burial site for Lutheran Church people. Also it is actually only about 3 blocks of Brentwood Ave. HELEn

HI Annie, Nancy Long made a list from the cemetery records. My list is from the headstones. Fitzpatrick and Kahn probably come from her list as not everyone in the cemetery had a stone. There is an Elizabeth Treusch 1862-1942 buried with the Gottleib Neu group Perhaps a daughter. Both the Caldwells and the Neu are near each other in the Circle but not next to each other. Try checking both my list and Nancy's on Norm's website. Hers I would tend to think would be more accurate. You can see the position of the graves by comparing placement. Margaret, FM and Norman are 62, 63, 64 on the Circle's rim. Gottlieb and famil are 96,97,98,99,100. The other Caldwell are in section F/G which is the next section over. To check I would have to physical go into the cemetery. Right now in the middle of winter would be tough. I could take pictures again not right now Wait until it is better weather and contact me a gain. I live in Brentwood. I drive Brentwood Ave about once a week. If you have a house number I could get a picture for you. Again in the Spring. HELEN Yes, thanks so much.

Larry, it was listed on Jan 1 1889 paper. Looks like it was a year end review. http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84024546/1889-01-01/ed-1/seq-12/ Deb -----Original Message----- Hi group: Someone posted a death notice for the Pittsburgh Dispatch for May 25, 1888, for a Jane Forrester. When I check the Library of Congress page their list for that paper starts in 1889. Can anyone tell me of another way to check that paper? Larry

Would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from foggy northeast Louisiana. Lona Laughlin Boudreaux Monroe, Louisiana

Merry Christmas to everyone. Thanks to all of your fellow researchers there is now an index of names appearing in Pittsburgh Area Newspapers, who were involved with military service. So far, the index covers much of 1918. and more updates are anticipated.
