Jessie Harrington (nee Munn)
« on: Friday 23 May 25 09:05 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I am trying to find the death of gg auntie Jessie Harrington nee Munn

Jessie was born in Scotland in 1897.
She moved to NY in the 1920’s to be with her brother William Munn.

She married Robert J Harrington in Michigan.

I’ve no idea what happened to Jessie did she have any children, did she stay in Michigan, when did she die? Any information would be greatly received.
Thank you.

You may be best amending your header to Jessie Harrington (nee Munn) as any death would be under Harrington - not Munn

That’s a great help, thank you so much.

I didn’t know she had any children.
She named her after her older sister, and her mother.

I wonder what happened to Robert Harrington?

All US censuses are free on Family Search.  Was her mothers maiden name McAulay?  If so - Jessie was b 1896 per Scotlands People

This may be a possibility for her death

I shall have a look on family search at the US censuses.

Yes Jessie’s mother was Margaret McAulay.

I’ve been to Woodbury, is that where the big shopping outlet is?

Thank you for finding this information for me.

I can’t find her on the 1940 or 1930 US censuses to check if she had other children

Sorry - I live in England so don’t know Woodbury
