Hi,
I am hoping that someone is familiar with the 1900 St Louis Census.  I am looking for an entry for 1451 Hodiamont Avenue but cannot find it.
I have checked the http://stevemorse.org site for the Enumeration District (409) and have gone though page by page.  Hodiamont is on there but I cannot find any addresses around 1451.
The link I have is to a Matt[hew] Keefe listed in the 1901 City Directory at "1451a Hodiamont Avenue. Occupation - Insp." I want to check the address on the closest dated census.

Does anyone have any information about DeHodiamont Avanue?

Regards

Kevin

Would it be possible if any one is able to lookup a birth in Newcastle under Lyme?

Margaret Bourke (1851 census, District 1a, Newcastle under Lyme, Church St.)
Listed as "Grand daughter" to Luke and Margaret Bourke. Age 8. Born Newcastle Staffs.

Luke, Margaret Snr, and Michael are all listed on the 1841 census also (spelled Bourke again) but no Patrick or Thomas.

In 1851 Luke and Margaret (Snr) also list Patrick, Michael and Thomas as sons. Ann Bourke is listed as daughter-in-law, being Anne McHowe I think....

Michael [Burke], and father Luke and mother Margaret are all listed later in census with Michael married to Anne (McHowe, m. 1850) so I know that this is the correct family and a variant on spelling of Burke.

It also means Ann and Michael were married several years after Margaret so I do not think she is their daughter.

I cannot find a birth entry for grand-daughter Margaret (1843) under any variant spelling of Burke.
Nor can I find a marriage of Ann to Patrick or Thomas (at least locally).  Similarly I have not found them definitively as a family group in later censuses.

I am making an assumption that Anne is Margaret's mother.

The closest I have is a possible marriage of Margaret Burke (b. 1843, father Patrick) to a George William Fletcher in 1877 in St. Mary Edge Hill Lancs. (no joy on 1861/71 census searches in this locale either). I will probably order the certificate but I don't think it will yield much helpful information.

Any help on birth of Margaret c.1843 or marriage of Anne to either Patrick or Thomas would be greatly appreciated. I have tried BOURKE, BURK, BERK, BIRK, BURKE even BOWRKE which was a transcript error) and many others!

Best regards

I am looking for any help or pointers in confirming the following:

Rebecca Fox (b. c. 1788) in Harringworth.  Possible parents John Fox and Anne[??] (marriage confirmation of John and Anne would be ideal!).

Francis Davis (b. c. 1775, possibly Pilton. d. 1848 Pilton).  Possible parents Francis Davis and Ann [??].

Daughter of Rebecca and Francis is Sarah Davis (of full age in 1855 on her own marriage cert).

Sarah Davis married Richard Taylor.

Richard's parents are James Taylor and Elizabeth (m. possibly around 1830). Elizabeth's surname may be "West". I have an inferrence that James Taylor's own parents were again James Taylor and Mary "??", while Elizabeth, if her name were West, Thomas West and again another Elizabeth.

I am in Durham and believe that some records may have moved from the parished to the county records.  Is this worth risking a visit on the information I have? Obviously it is a distance.

Hi.
I am looking for anyone who may have connection to the following families: (brief details)

GAY: Baltrasna, just outside of Mullingar. John Gay m. Anne Cormack, son William m. Mary Flood, son Thomas died WW1 1917. Other members in 1901: Joseph, Patrick, Delia (possibly m. James Carroll) , John, Lizzie, Mary K, Frederick, Peter

FLOOD: Gibbonstown, Rochfortbridge. John Flood m. Catherine Keefe. Mary m. William Gay, Lawrence emigrated New York, Joseph emigrated Chicago with brother Michael, Thomas and John remained Rochfortbridge.

KEEFE: Catherine m. John Flood (blacksmith), brother Matthew emigrated St. Louis.  Possibly another sister Mary.

ENNIS:  Richard Ennis emigrated with Joseph & Michael Flood, all listing Matthew Keefe as 'uncle' making them cousins. Richard next of kin listed as James. Richard stayed with Matthew Keefe in St. Louis. Possible parents Richard & Mary of either Delvin or Hightown.

Many thanks for any possible connections.  I have 1901, 1911 census records (some need confirmation of identity) and also emigration records/US census.

I would be grateful if anyone is able to provide any further information on especially the parents via marriage or birth records of Francis Davis (Pilton, b. c.1775 Morcott) and Rebecca Fox (Harringworth, Northants, c. 1788). I believe they married in 1818.

After 1818 I think they lived in Morcott (birth of daughter) but then later, Pilton 1841, Wing 1851 (Rebecca), and then again Pilton 1861.

Many thanks.
