Possible obituary reference for James Henry Junior:

Green James Henry, Jr. - 6/8/1990      SJ (quite a gap if he died 7 June from the SSDI index date)
http://newbern.cpclib.org/research/obituary.html and then so search on the index.

Thanks Monica

I got the info needed for James's obit and will send for it   Hadn't gotten to that website last night  Have letter and 2 dollars in mail tomorrow.

Don't see a gap tho re his death and then obit  He died 7 June and the obit was in paper 8 June so that was 1 day later.

 I thought I was reading that also but didn't know for sure.... there is something else on the page about  dist Count Pittsburgh Penn Dec 22 then something else after that but when I went back to Ellis Island site and tried to get the page up it shows that there is no page ... they never heard of Letitia Pye in 1912  Once  I can get the page up again I will see what is written after Dec 22 and then go on the rootsweb list for Pittsburgh area and see what and if anyone can tell me what to do to find out what that was about

 ;D Sorry Sharon - the difference in styles for American and English dates always gets me! I am reading it as 6 August (6/8) rather than the American way.

I figured that one out  ;D

I was doing that also when I work on the UK lines and went to the US lines and forgot to do the dates as American way ... I even had it down in my trees like that and had to go and change them to like 8 Jan 1834 instead of 8 1 1834 or 1 8 1834 so everyone could understand the dates.

Thanks to the Lancashire board it looks like the pub was The STAR and it looks like they only kept it a short time as William Kay was a Watch movement maker in 1861 at a different address and she has married and moved on in 1884. So I can stop crawling round the pub and get back to the family in question

Has anyone remember that ETO was a descendant of the PYE family  ??? Surely there isn't a tie up there I'll take a detour along that family for a little while in Case
