United States of America / Death Margaret Crossett, abt Dec 20, 1907, Brooklyn
« on: Thursday 07 July 22 00:39 BST (UK)  »
Apparently, there is an obit for Margaret Crossett on Dec 20, 1907 in Brooklyn so she must have died within a day or two of that date. Margaret was nee Carmichael and was married to Thomas Crossett on Mar 7, 1860 in Brooklyn. I know her father was Archie as per old family letters. What I don't know is when Thomas died, but it was before the 1892 census. Thomas was still alive in 1880 as per the census and in 1890 as per online tree. I think that is him as a baker in the 1885-1886 city directory. Looking also to find out the names of Thomas' parents if his death certificate can be found and if it mentions his parents.

Son Thomas is living with his sisters Margaret and Sarah in 1910. All single. Seems like maybe none of them married.

Thomas and Margaret's son Thomas born 1871 is still living in Brooklyn in 1940 with his sister Sarah both single.

« on: Monday 04 July 22 20:21 BST (UK)  »
Looking for further info on John Leacock who died Jan 28, 1894 in Ontario, age 74, and is buried Easton's Corners United / Union Burying Ground, Wolford, Leeds & Grenville, Ontario. Looking for parents (especially), and wife, children, anything.
I had been following a John Leacock, born Perth, Ontario, abt 1827, blacksmith, wife Miriam McColl/McClough and wonder if this is the same person. They had a son William Henry Leacock who married Eliza Keating in 1896,  Leeds & Grenville.
Thanks for any help

William R. Leacock was born Aug 26, 1920, in Manchester, New Hampshire, the son of William Watterson Leacock and Margaret Theresa Mahoney. I don't know if he ever married.

He had sister Frances Helen Parsons who died in Sunnyvale, California Jan 15, 2000, Dorothy Rand who died 2006, and another sister that I don't have the name of, who died after William's death in 2009.
Thanks for any help

Looking for the parents of Hamilton Leacock born abt 1817 in Ireland and died 1892 in Pennsylvania. So a death certificate would be great, but an obit would also be great, if it names siblings. I don't know where Hamilton died but his possible brother Hugh died in Edinboro, Washington Township, Erie Co., PA.
Thanks for any help.

Antrim / death Isabella Harvey, Sept 18, 1939, 39 Runnymeade Parade, Belfast
« on: Tuesday 28 June 22 22:01 BST (UK)  »
Looking for a writeup or obituary for Isabella Harvey, nee Johnston, widow of James Harvey. She died Sept 18, 1939. Have not been able to find the name of her mother. Perhaps if knew siblings, other than Lucy, might be able to link Isabella to other family members. Isabella's father was Robert, mother was NOT Margaret Bowman, as per many family trees. I have researched Lucy and still don't know their mother's name.
Thanks for any help

Annie Maze was born July 17, 1899 in Ireland to William Henry Maze and Lucy Johnston. She married Nelson Hardy in 1918 in Ireland. Her first two sons were born in Brandon, Manitoba. She reportedly died Aug 4, 1976 in Dearborn, Wayne Co., Michigan. Would like death certificate or obit to prove this is really her. Her son Clarence Hardy also died in Michigan Oct 20, 1977.
thanks for any help.

Robert Johnston married Margaret Bowman about 1842 (I don't have the marriage record) and their daughter Margaret was born Apr 23, 1843 in Aghagaskin and a son James abt 1848(unverified). Their youngest son was Robert Johnston born Feb 10, 1867 in Fallagloon.
I am looking for the death of Margaret Johnson/Johnston nee Bowman. There is a death Nov 5, 1873 who is a possibility in Magherafelt and the next entry is James Johnson, in 1874, in Magherafelt, age 23, both of whom had Robert Johnson present and they did have a son James. Another death for Margaret was  Jan 15, 1895 who is the widow of Robert Johnston but the death is in Drumerow so thinking not likely.
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thank you.

Thank you

« on: Saturday 18 June 22 22:00 BST (UK)  »
I found this today and trying to follow it. Looks like parents were Joseph McCleary and Mary Ann Lennox, with their daughter Caroline Adelaide whose married name is Brown. But I don't find any of them on the 1901 or 1911 censii.
