Hello
Ann Penrose Dale was born in 1847 in Sand Hutton, Yorkshire, England. I was able to find her on the U.K censuses for 1851, 1861 and 1871. In 1872 she married Joseph Mountain in Leeds, Yorkshire and then she seemed to disappear from U.K records. Then last night just by chance I found her on a grave web-site and from there the 1880 U.S.A census.
From this I could deduct she arrived in America around 1874-76. The census gave the following details:- Joseph Mountain, age 31 a coffee & Tea merchant; Ann age 30;Lydia, age 7; Charles age 4 and Alice age 9months. Anna (D.1910) and Joseph (D.1903) are buried in Mount Hope Cemetery in Monroe, Rochester, New York
As well as asking if anybody has anymore information on Ann Penrose Mountain I would also like to ask about John Penrose Dale, born 1850 in Sand Hutton, Yorkshire and appeared on the U.K 1851, 1861, 1871 and 1881 census before he disappeared and Frederick Penrose Dale born 1853 in York, Yorkshire and only appeared on the 1861 U.K census before disappearing.. Did they join Anne?
Thank you

AGED WOMAN FOUND DEAD
_____________________
Lies Down in Bed and Insets
Tube Between Her Teeth
Mrs. Anna Mountain, 60 years old, was found dead in bed at her home, No. 394 1/2 Joseph avenue yesterday. Rubber gas tubing; was gripped between her teeth, indicating that the woman had deliberately taken her own life. The body was removed to the morgue, and Coroner T. A. Kllllp began an investigation. It is probable that he will give a certificate of suicide while suffering from melancholia.
The strong odor of gas was first noticed by Edward Then, a clerk, who traced it to the flat occupied by Mrs. Mountain. He forced the door and saw the woman lying on the bed. He opened the windows and shut off the gas that was flowing through the tube. A physician was summoned, who said the woman had been dead for several hours. Mrs. Mountain is said to have been the mother of ten children, none of whom lived with her.

Thank you for all that hard work and information. I have followed the links and opened an account with the web-site. I didn't know it existed and now I know it is there I will explore it. Saying that I would never have found the mis-transcribed census records. It was a horrible to read that she killed herself as that is what her father did in England (he hung himself) just before she disappeared from the U.K records and as I now know went to America.

Wow, I can't believe how much information you have found out about Ann and her family. It is much appreciated as this part of the family were scattered all over after their father's suicide. Ann's step brothers ended up with McPherson's homes in Canada, just across the boarder from where Ann lived. I googled it last night!! I wonder if they ever met again-I shouldn't think so. Thank you once again to both of you. I am going on holiday first thing in the morning so if you leave anything else (I don't think there can be any more!!)I won't be able to reply-no mobile phone for me!!. Louise
As I was typing this you managed to post two new replys-I can't believe your researching skills. No I didn't know about that John P Dale I lost him after the 1881 U.K census. Louise
