sorry I dont a lot about pennsylvania birth registrations, i cant find her birth online though sorry

Hi Lorraine,

Any chance in finding a Thomas Hutchings b 1867 Devon, that emigrated to Montreal Canada 1882,.
through out his life he came & went back & forth UK & Canada. I have most his passengers lists.

He was once living in Manitoba. Canada with his family.. also lived in Quebec with his family. This is them in the 1911 Quebec Canada Census
His wife was Ellen s1884.
Rusk b 1896.
Frank b1898
Muriel b 1899
Monica b 1910.

Although he did come home to England many times , he never died in the UK.
So he must have died in Canada.
Ellen he either left or she died because he married later in 1831 in USA just over the border in Illinois and that Marriage ended . and he went back to Canada.
Hope I haven't overloaded you .So sorry if I have ,but its just a DEATH that I am after. Please Lorraine. be grateful for anything !!

Hi Lorraine,

Can I just ask, if an address is written as 30 W. 3d. h 216 Wooster and another as 39 First av. h 119 Seventh, how do I work out what it all means? I was given these details from another GR member from USA directory and wondered if it was possible to find the buildings on google maps as it is very good with street view of New York. I just dont understand all the figures etc! I could if it just said First Avenue but all that stuff after muddles me up!

Thanks again, Marie.

Hi Lorraine,
thanks for offer of help.
I am looking for marriage of Hugh Johnston to Oleafa Edith Heldt.
Hugh Johnston born Belfast, Ireland 1893,
Oleafa Edith Heldt born Indiana 1890, died 1959 in Huddersfield, England.
He was mechanic/engineer and emigrated to Chicago after death of his first wife Minnie Dougan.
Would like to know where and when he died as well as marriage details if at all possible.
Not having any luck with these 2 so anything at all appreciated. Thank you.

Kind regards,

Cath

Hi Lorraine,

Many, many thanks for all your hard work finding the Goldsmiths for me. It was my last idea of finding them. Because of nothing in the UK I assumed they went to USA because of how the tobacco trade was developing at the time. Hopefully with all this wonderful information you have given me I can find out where they hailed from in Holland.

Thank you so much! :)
Best wishes, Marie.

Thaks very much Lorraine for your help that's the fella. My aunt said that he was married and she died in childbirth so its stranges. would you try something for me would you look for a marriage under the name Garland Massey.
If you look at my threadsa nice person sent me a thread which was a little strange but interesting.
On the info that you sent me it says some about marriage with dependants, i did ask what this meant and i was told that he had been married and the was a child or children so its a bit strange isnt it?


Thanks very much again Mike

Thanks for looking, Lorraine - really appreciate it. I was once told that not all births had to be recorded in Scranton at that time. Would this be right?

In 1901 family was living in:
Ecclesiastical Parish - Ferndale, Christchurch
Civil Parish - Ystradyfodwg

Maria was said to be born circa 1900 - British Subject born in US

In 1911 Census family was still living in Ferndale. Maria was married then and not mentioned with the family. Robert's spouse is Elizabeth. I believe she is his second wife. They had been married 16 years. Maria usually went by the name "May".

Thanks again
Ted

Hi Lorraine

Would you be able to find Maria May Jones b. Scranton, Pennsylvania on May 5, 1887? Her father was Robert Jones b. Dec.7, 1864 Rumney (Rhymney) Monmouthshire, Wales. He was a miner. Mother unknown. Maria and Robert returned to UK and I think they appear in the 1901 UK census.

Thank you
Ted

Hi Lorraine,
thanks for the offer. I have a family on the 1861 Liverpool, England census that seem to disapear. They work in the tobacco trade and probably arrived in the uk together and i suspect left together too. I think they went to the usa. Could you look for me?
Hostoch Goldsmith-Head-c1809-Holland
Morris Goldsmith-Son-c1832-Holland
Rachel Goldsmith-D in L-c1832-Holland
Sarah Goldsmith-G Daug-c1857-Liverpool,England
Henry Goldsmith-G Son-c1859-Liverpool,England
Nehemiah Hartog Goldsmith-Son-c1835-Holland
Jonas Goldsmith-Son-c1838-Holland
Isaac Goldsmith-Son-c1844-Holland
Maria Goldsmith-Daug-c1848-Holland
It is Nehemiah's son that comes back to the UK and settles here. I have him on a census stating born at sea but later has Liverpool as place of birth.Hope you can shed some light!
Thanks, Marie.

Hi Lorraine,

Never mind, and thank you so much for taking the time to search for me, it's very much appreciated.

Good luck to you in your own research,

Regards, Lou
