Re: LOOKUP OFFER for US Census Records

[jas]

Hi Megan,  First of all I thank you for this offer.  I am trying to find one of my "brick  walls"  A Henry Burrell,, born in Ireland  around 1872.  I think he went to the U.S. about 1885 - to New York and sometime after that to New Jersey.  Returned to Ireland and served in WW1.  Returned to New Jersey in 1919.  The last address in have in 147 South Street, Newark, N.J. In 1919 he went to somewhere called Hackensack ?.  I don't know for how long.  I was wondering whether he would show up on census or anything over there.
Many many thanks for any assistance.  Jean

Hi

I am trying to find Alfred James Hall born abt 1876 in Baddesley Warwick England.

Have been told a story that when my ggrandfather came to Australia one of his brothers came with him and the other one went to America.

From what i can determine it Alfred would have arrived in America after 1891. Do not know where he would be. I know it isn't much information but if you could have a look and see if you can find anything it would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jaki

Hi Megan, Thank you for your very kind offer, Could you please look for my Gt grandfather:

William THEARLE he was born 1877 Kensington England. He arrived in America sept 1922.  He was living in Attlemont N.Y. in 1938 according to an obituary.
 I have details of his brother Joseph THEARLE and his family in the 1930 Census but not William, any others you could add i would be greatful for.

Anything you could possibly find on William would be very helpful.

Jackie

Hello Jean
I went to look further back to the 1900 US census for New Jersey and found:

State: New Jersey
County: Passaic
Township: Manchester
ED 88
Sheet 17B

BURRELL
Henry, Head, M, W, Born June 1872, Ireland, married for 6 years, came to USA in 1890, occupation: Card Cutter

Agnes, Wife, F, W, born Dec 1875, Scotland, married for 6 years, had 1 child, still living, to USA in 1880

Elizabeth, dau, F, W, born Oct 1896, New Jersey.

Interesting to note that in the same census, just a couple of pages away, was Henry BURRELL, age 73.  He is listed as father to Jennie GRAY, age 33 who was born in Ireland.  I can post more detail if he is of interest.

Regards,
Valerie

Hello,

I saw your very kind offer of help with searching the US Censuses.  If you could help it would be really great as I can't find out any more without census info.

My Great Uncle Gordon was born in 1904.  He left for the USA arriving through Ellis Island in 1921 aged 16.  His actual name was Arthur Gordon Trowbridge, known as Gordon, though I have seen him as "A Gordon Trowbridge" and "Arthur G Trowbridge".  I have found his Social Security Death details on the LDS site.  I also know that he was travelling to his Uncle's house in Ashtabula, Ohio.  His uncle was HW REAKES, (Herbert).

From Ancestry.com I can tell that there is only one reference to Arthur Gordon Trowbridge in the 1930 US census - A Gordon Trowbridge.  He is living in Portage county (state not visible (presume OHIO).  There is only one other Trowbridge in Portage county - Emma L Trowbridge.  I am therefore presuming that they are husband and wife. 


The information that I can/can't see is as follows US 1930 Census:
Name:    A Gordon Trowbridge
Age:    25
Estimated birth year:    abt 1905 
Birthplace:    England 
Relation to head-of-house:    Head 
Race:    White 
Home in 1930:    Rootstown, Portage, Ohio
Occupation:    .
Education:    .
Military service:    .
Rent/home value:    .
Age at first marriage:    .
Parents' birthplace:    .
Owned a radio:    .
Image source:    Year: 1930; Census Place: Rootstown, Portage, Ohio; Roll: 1862; Page:  ; Enumeration District: 29; Image: 405.0.

I am really keen to see who else is in the household as, as far as we know he had no natural children but did adopt a boy that he called Sunny.

I found his uncle HW Reakes also on a ship manifest arriving in 1892 listed as 'resident'.  He was born about 1875.  I believe he died 30 July 1930.  I also know that his brother Ralph Arnold Reakes (known as either Ralph or Arnold) left f North Wootton , Somerset, England for Ohio in 1896.  I believe he lived until 1956.  I think he was in Trumbull Ohio in 1910

Any help that you could give me regarding any of these three men and their households would be fantastic.

Thank you in advance if you can help.

Eddie

Hi Valerie,  Many thanks.  That it the Henry Burrell I am related to so any info you have would be gratefully appreciated.  The other Henry Burrell is interesting because Agnes Burrell's maiden name was Gray.  Don't know the connection there as yet or if any.  Cheers  Jean
