Seeking to know if any John (Waters,Watrous,Waterous,Watrus,Waterhouse,Walters) is RI in the 1790 or 1782 census. thanx for any help. Jack Hanover,pa

from "Printers and Printing in Providence, 1762 - 1907" prepared by a committee of Providence Typographical Union #33 as a souvenir of the 50th anniversary of its institution printed in 1907 "The Journeymen" (part 128) pp. LVII - LVIII. "ALEXANDER OSBORN MILNE - Born Fall River, Mass., Sept. 10, 1845; learned printing on the Daily News of that city, becoming its foreman about 1865; he removed to Providence, working on the Evening Press, and was initiated into Providence Union April 10, 1869; from this city he went to San Francisco, Cal., where he was night foreman of the Bulletin. Later he returned to the East, settling in Taunton, where he purchased the Bristol County Republican (weekly) and conducted that paper for several years. Getting tired of the publishing business, the Republican was taken off his hands by its former owner, Mr. William Read, and Mr. Milne returned to the Pacific coast, where he resides on a ranch at Elk Grove, Cal. JOSEPH S. MILNE - Lieutenant in R. I. Battery B; received a fatal wound during the battle of Gettysburg, and his dead body has been received by his friends in Fall River. Lieut. Milne was a printer, who enlisted from the office of the Post into Battery E, and arose by merit until he received a commission as Second Lieutenant and was assigned to Battery B. A short time since, when Capt. Cushing of the regular army desired the assistance of another officer in his battery, Lieut. Milne was detailed for the honorable duty, and it was in fighting with this battery that the gallant young fellow received his death wound. Every officer of that battery was either killed or wounded. Lieut. Milne commanded the warmest esteem of his brother officers and was much beloved by his men. - Providence Journal, July 16, 1863. He was a brother of William O. Milne of Newport. JOHN H. MILNE - Born Newport, R. I., February, 1843; died in this city Oct. 22, 1903; learned printing in the office of the Fall River news. About 1863 he came to this city and entered the office of the Providence Journal as foreman of the night force. After holding that position for about two years he returned to Fall River and became foreman of the Monitor of that city. In 1866 he returned to the Journal composing room as foreman of the day force, which position he held about 30 years. During his service the linotype machines were introduced into the composing rooms." continued in part 129.

I found a 'BENJAMIN MACKINTIRE' admitted as a freeman of GLOCESTER in 'this colony' - Colony of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, at Newport, the 3d day of May, 1737. I have several Benjamin McIntire names in my records. 'My' Benjamin's wound up in Old Falmouth (now Portland), Maine, then No. Yarmouth, ME, then New Gloucester, ME. I have not made connections of my McIntires with the Micum or Philip McIntires - yettt! I am looking to find any more detail that I can on the Benjamin Mackintire of Glocester (Providence), RI in the early 1700s. Any pointers are very welcome. In roots, Cindy (McIntire) Johnson

Thank you Laurie, Marie & Sheila. Laurie, I will try the Yahoo Groups list. Marie, thanks for the reminder about the 1895 state census being lost. For once, a typo has proved lucky. I misread my handwriting and should have typed 1875 instead of 1895. Hopefully the 1875 is still around. Sheila, thanks for your offer to look up Ancestry's city directories. Marie's response reminded me why I spent so much time in the Pawtucket library's reading room some years back. Those volumes yielded a wealth of info. To take you up on your kind offer, though, could you see if Ancestry's info shows anything on a Buskey family in the Pawtucket, RI area in approximately 1890-1898? Thanks again, Joan S. (NY) (Off to join the Yahoo Groups list; so that's where everyone went!)

Does anyone know if there is a RI State Census available for 1895, and if so, is it online somewhere or only at the RI Archives in Providence? Many thanks, Joan S.
