Sorry made a mistake in the first posting.

Monica (Blaisdell) is the wife of James Connors, son b/1905 (not daughter)
May have a burial place at St Marys in Cortland NY for James Senior.

Hi Belle

Just did a quick exact search in 1930 and came up with James and Monica immediately.

1930 census, living at 401 Shomnard? Street, Syracuse, Onondaga, New York
 
Head of household, James J Connors, rents home $40, age 26, first married at age 23, born New York as were both parents, occupation Chauffeur Lumber Co.
 
Wife, Monica, age 20, first married 17, born New York, both parents born New York
 
Daughter, Ellen K, age 1 9/12, born New York

I will now have a delve through the census's for the whole family and see what comes up

Best wishes

Hi Belle

Now I am going to give you these details from the 1910 census, even though the name of the household doesn't match with what you have said as I am pretty certain that it is your family. It was very difficult to find because James has been indexed incorrectly with the household of Ida Ramish.

Living at 601 South West Street,  Syracuse Ward 11, Onondaga, New York

Head of household, Larry Connors, age 40, Marriage 1 for 10 years, born New York, parents born Ire English, occupation Laborer odd jobs
Wife, Nora, age 38, 1 child, 1 living, born New York, parents born Ire English.
Son, James, age 5, born New York


In the 1920 census, Nephew, James age 15 is living with Daniel Duggan, age 42, single, born New York as were both his parents, his occupation is Laborer Milling Company.

Also in the household is Daniel's sister Margaret, age 52, single also born New York, her occupation is Dressmaker working in own home.

They are living at 416 Shonnard Street, Syracuse Ward 12, Onondaga, New York (sorry! still cannot read the Street very well)

I cannot find his parents but will keep looking as well as hopefully finding them in 1900 married, fingers crossed

Belle,

Just had a peek myself. I love a hunt. I found a Nora Connors in the 1920 and 1930 census in Leroy, NY. She is a widow, in 1920 she is a housekeeper and in 1930 she is a boarder. She is with William Tobin (age55) and John Tobin (age 15). William was born in NY of Irish parents. And John is his son.

In the 1930 census, it is just William and Nora.

Hi Belle

I have found a Nora Connors in 1920 living in the household of William Tobin and his son John at Harris Road, Le Roy, Genesee, New York

This nora is shown as being a Housekeeper, age 48, widowed, born New York, both parents born Ireland, occupation is shown as Servant Private family.



If this is your Nora, she is still with William Tobin in 1930, a servant age 58, widowed and shown as married at age 24. Her parents are shown as born in the Irish Free state (the 1930 census differentiates between Northern Ireland and Eire)

Still looking in 1900 

[YvonneR]

OOOOPS  just noticed that you have found these Kath... Sorry 

[KathMc]

No problem. I couldn't resist jumping in. I am in a lull on my research (lull equals brickwalls  ) and love to keep looking.

Kath

[YvonneR]

I know the feeling very well Kath  I believe my brickwall has been solid for about two years now 

Back to Belle's query 

Have you found them in 1900 ?, I don't seem to be coming up with the Connor's or Duggan's.

will keep trying though
