Cecile, My Charles Bailey born in DC and Catherine Cross born in VA were married in Alexandria, VA, in 1915 but lived in DC. In the event you haven't checked yet, the Library of VA has Marriages of Alexandria City 1870-1924 on microfilm reel 55 that's available through interlibrary loan. I believe an index is available.

Dear Sue, We have much information about Tenleytown families including many Collins. You may have all the information we do but perhaps we should compare notes? Maybe we'll find a connection. Some of the many Tenleytown and/or local families Collins married into were: Barnes Dean Donaldson Fawcett Harry Houser Hurdle Ingalls King Magruder Mangum Mastbrook Mattingly Phillips Queen Robey Shoemaker Deborah in the suburbs of Washington, DC, USA Message: 3 Date: Fri, 27 Apr 2007 08:35:38 -0700 (PDT) From: SUE DOTSON <buzzybee@prodigy.net> Subject: Re: [WashDC] Creamer/Kramer and Selby Families To: washingtondc@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <536807.91655.qm@web83610.mail.sp1.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ascii Ann, I'm sorry I can't help you with this one, but I'm curious about your (or your spouse's?)

I posted the message that maybe the Enoch Pratt Library could send a copy of the obit if they had it in file. It is free and they send it thru email....IF they have it and since she has the exact date it would be easy for them to find. The email address is per@epfl.net the librarians are a very nice bunch and are very helpful....

Toni, There seems to be a good bit of info on the Congressional Cemetery web pages, _http://www.congressionalcemetery.org/_ (http://www.congressionalcemetery.org/) On the far left just click on Genealogy, then Interments/Obituaries, then B. Select the "Bea" option at the top of the screen that appears, scroll down until you find Beasley. It appears all Beasleys listed are related as they are all in range 81, sites 61-65 and range 82, sites 61-65. If you click on the underlined Beasley names it will take you to two obituaries in PDF. One is for Joseph Beasley which indicates his funeral takes place from his son-in-law's, George Compton. You can always request lookups from the MLK Jr. Library based on the burial information provided for the other family members. It gives their dates of interment.

I'm looking for information or family members regarding the Creamer/Kramer Family who lived in the old southwest area of Washington, D. C. It is believed this family originally came from York or the York area of Pennsylvania, around the 1820's. I don't have any first names for this family as yet except for a daughter, Mary Creamer who married James Selby, in 1841. James was a lock and gunsmith and they also lived in the old southwest of D.

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Abby Louise BARNEY which was taken at the H. L. Bingham Studio in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1870's with Abby listed as 7 1/4 years old at the time the photograph was taken.

I'm not sure this will be any help, but the Library of Congress has links to some Washington, DC (as well as CA, FL, KY, NY, UT and VA) newspapers that can be searched.

I returned to the DC area in January and have had some research opportunities. (I've been concentrating more on finding a job, and had had to spend time on finding places to live.) I lived on Capitol Hill in '79-'80, but had not yet found out how to effectively do genealogical research -- and had almost no reliable information on any of more lines more than a few generations back. When I came back to the area in 1985, I was new to _real_ genealogical research, having attended a terrific how-to workshop in late '84 -- but had little info. Before I left in late 1987, I'd acquired some information and had been to the National Archives a few times to view census microfilm and to _try_ to get my lines further back. Within five years after I left DC, I had a sizeable amount of family info almost literally dumped in my lap and had bought my first computer and gone online from home. I had fourteen years in South Carolina to acquire more genealogical info and to do research. I can say now that Washington must be in my blood: a set of great-great-grandparents moved to DC in 1910 [I've tracked several years of their lives in city directories and The Historical Washington Post, having gotten some basic info off some family info I'd had for several years.]; some of this great-great-grandmother's ancestors had lived in the Washington area and Northern Virginia before the Civil War, and two of my dad's lines were in Northern Virginia/the northern Shenandoah area in the 1700s. Not only that -- it's very, very possible my parents are related to each other through their descent from the LOVE family in western Virginia in the 1700s. (I haven't gotten confirmation on this -- YET.) I admit to being disappointed that my mother's PAYNE line is not _the_ PAYNE line from old Northern Virginia history: her Paynes are descended from an ancestor who was born in New Jersey and settled in Winchester shortly before the Revolution. I am interested in Washington-area ethnic research as I wrote my History thesis on early Lebanese immigrants to South Carolina and would like to do something similar about the 19th century immigrants who left Ottoman Syria (Syria, Lebanon, parts of modern Jordan, Israel and Turkey) and settled in Northern Virginia and DC before 1950. Many of these immigrants were Catholic and Orthodox Christian. (I wasn't able to do any research in the Catholic diocesan archives in South Carolina because it's four hours each way from where I lived: here, I can just catch public transit to the Catholic diocesan archives in Arlington.
