Ida C Hughes, d 28 Dec 1915, Manhattan
« on: Friday 16 July 21 13:31 BST (UK) »
Was there an obituary for Ida C Hughes who died 28 December 1915 in Manhattan, according to the New York City extracted death index at ancestry.com?

Is she Ida Cecelia (McNally) Wilson Hughes, wife of Patrick Joseph Hughes? They married 11 August 1903 in Manhattan. Her parents were Christopher McNally [McNealy?] and Elizabeth "Dorsen" [maybe Dorsey]. Ida was born in New York about 1868 and had a sister  Helen/Ellen living with her in 1900 and 1910. I haven't looked for Ida's birth family yet.

That's it for now, I may need help finding Patrick after 1915 but I will post that question here later if I have to.

If someone could help me find the 1920 and 1930 censuses for Ida's daughter, I would appreciate it.

Virginia Helen Hughes was born as Virginia Robinson Hughes on 22 July 1904 in Manhattan to Patrick Joseph Hughes and Ida Cecilia McNally. She went by Virginia Helen by at least 1924.

I can't find her in 1920. She was only 11 when her parents died in 1915, so she could be with just about anyone in 1920. She is not with her stepbrother Cecil D Wilson and his wife in South Carolina.

She might be with her aunt Helen/Ellen McNally. I haven't found her yet in 1920. She was born maybe in June 1870 and was living with Virginia and her parents in 1910 and 1915.

As for finding her in 1930: Virginia had a son Richard K Hunt born 4 May 1925. I can't find either of them. Neither are with Virginia's husband Harold R Hunt who is with his parents in Port Chester, Westchester County, NY.

I already have Virginia's marriages to Harold Hunt 5 April 1924 and to John McGoldrick 2 October 1932.

And I already also have the death, obituary and findagrave information for her, her husband John, and her son Richard Kenneth Hunt.

I don't think she is:
Virginia Hughes, 27, single, 3106 3rd Ave, Bronx
because if so, where is her son Richard Kenneth Hunt?
