Michael P. Shea/O’Shea, Kerry, Ireland and Tilton, New Hampshire (Looney, O’Connor)

Beenoskee — 7 Aug 2008 5:56:17 GMT

Michael son of Patrick O’Shea and Mary Fitzgerald was born in Goulane, Castlegregory, Co. Kerry, Ireland in 1876. He married Ellen Looney in Tilton, NH in 1908. The couple appear in the 1910 census in Tilton. He was listed as aged 31 and she (listed as Nellie) was 29, both born in Ireland and emigrated in 1897 and 1897 respectively. In 1930 Michael P a widower and son Patrick aged 19 are found in Northfield, NH (near Tilton). I did not find Michael in the 1920 census but a Patrick aged 9 is listed as a nephew in the home of John F. O’Connor and his wife Margaret Northfield, NH. John O’Connor and family emigrated from Cork to Boston in 1914 on the SS Andania bound for his brother in law Edward Looney, Tilton, NH. The Tilton directory for 1942 lists Michael and Patrick O’Shea at 25 Vine St. where they were living in 1930.

Any information would be welcomed.

PIPER familys of Gilmanton, NH

Angie2253 — 20 May 2008 2:46:55 GMT

I am searching for the Piper families who lived in Gilmanton, New Hampshire.
I understand that two brothers, Nathaniel and Thomas Piper lived in Gilmanton, NH. I have a Sarah Piper born about 1784 who may have been born in Gilmanton, NH but, did live there. She married Henry Plummer and as far as I know they died in this town. I have been trying to find the name of her parents and find out if Nathaniel and Thomas were related to her.
Any information of Sarah Piper would be greatly appreciated.
Respectfully Yours,

WARD family New Hampton, NH 1700s & 1800s

diantha_h — 8 May 2008 12:43:14 GMT

I am looking for information on this WARD family. Jeremiah WARD was ordained pastor of the church there 1782, and died 1816. In the 1790 census he was listed: 2M 16+, 2M <16, 4 F.
I suspect his family included Jeremiah Jr (b ca 1769), John B (b ca 1775), Noah (b 1780-1784), & (I hope) Sally/Sarah. (dates from censuses).
Sally married John LEAVITT before 1792 and lived in Meredith, NH, where she was buried 1853, age 79. According to a son's death record, she was born in New Hampton, and she had a son Jeremiah W Leavitt, so I think it possible she was a daughter of Jeremiah WARD.
Any information, positive or negative, or suggestions appreciated!

David Blake And Phoebe Knowles--Meredith/Center Harbor

sngourd — 7 Nov 2007 2:30:25 GMT

I am looking for information on David Blake (b. abt 1800, d. 1852, probably in Center Harbor) and his wife Phoebe Knowles (b. abt 1804, Center Harbor, d. 1886, Laconia?). They lived in Center Harbor and/or Meredith. I am looking for any information that can help me find their ancestors. David is often confused with another contemporaneous David Blake from Wolfeboro, and many trees that I have seen are polluted with misinformation from this confusion, but both of them are clearly shown with different families in the 1850 census.

They had daughters Almira (abt 1830-1862), Almatia (1831-1892, married to John Smith), Almeda (1837-1896, my direct ancestor, married to Ernest William Gourd), and Arvilla (abt 1839-1860). The daughters are often confused because of their similar names. There are also many other females with some of these same names around the same time, I guess they were trendy names around this time. There was also a son David (1833-1901), married to Sarah Weeks.

David and Phoebe are buried in Meredith Village cemetery, along with many of their children. I have seen their gravestones and also gotten an informational printout from the cemetery sexton. I have found several deeds to and from them in Belknap County and I have copies of them, but they have not shed much light on their families. There was a conveyance to a Jesse A. Blake and I have not been able to determine his relationship. David Blake's estate was opened in 1852, and I have looked at the records, but I did not make copies. I did see in the estate that a guardianship was established for two of David's daughters in 1857 with Daniel Blake as the guardian (curious because mother Phoebe was still alive?) and I do not know Daniel Blake's relationship either.

Though I made one trip up to Belknap County a while back to get some info, I am in Texas and unable to get up there too often.

Mitchell's in GILFORD ????

K Mitchell — 6 Jun 2006 12:44:33 GMT

I have a will dated 1831, of Ruben MITCHELL, Wayne Co. NC. He has been my brick wall.
In this will he mentions property brought from Gilford. We have a county named Guilford, in NC. I followed that lead to no avail.
It looks as if he came to NC in the late 1700's, from Gilford?
There is mention in Rev War Papers, MA and NC.
Can someone give me a little backgroung on Gilford, and
maybe a tie in with MA.
Thanks

Lookup Request in Laconia

qntara — 12 Mar 2005 8:00:26 GMT

I have previously posted a request to connect with anyone who has info on this family (the original post is below)
http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/message/an/localities.nort...

I was wondering if anyone had access to any old directories that might have this family listed.......phone books, school lists, tax rolls, anything..........

I have so little info on this generation of the family, and would like to be able to find out if John had any siblings, find out who the mother was, and then continue from there......

Trying to locate anything to start with. Thanks for everyone's help and suggestions. (I have ordered a copy of John's birth certificate, but it has not arrived yet....)

What i do know:
John Phylius Gilbert, Sr. Born February 02, 1887, Laconia (New York, NY) Per Death Certificate

Found on the 1920 Census in Rye/Westchester NY his father living with him:
Francis Gilbert listed as widowed on 1920 census, born @ 1855 (age 65 at census) states born in France.

So, who was the wife of Francis (& mother of John)?
They lived in or close to Laconia NH in 1887 when John was born.
She died sometime after John's birth in 1887, but prior to the 1920 Census.

If anyone has any good sources to research in Laconia NH, please llet me know.....I've already searched LDS Library, Rootsweb and Ancestry.
Thanks for everyone's help!

Baker Family, Dry Goods & Mill Remnants, 1920-1960

cbannes — 6 Nov 2006 3:47:50 GMT

In the late 1800s, one Russell B Baker migrated backward, going from Knox County, OH, to Middlesex Co, Massachusetts. He married there and had a family of 6 children. He died, between 1920-1930, probably in Lowell, MA. Two of his sons, Harold Arthur Baker (26 Dec 1895, MA - Feb 1984, Laconia, NH) and Russell Leroy Baker (Sep 1892, MA - 13 Jan 1953, Laconia, NH) left MA before 1922 to start a mill remnants business in Laconia.

Russell married a Marie [UNKNOWN LN], b about 1898 in NH, sometime before 1922. Marie either died or they were divorced before 1933, when he is single, according to the city directory. No mention of children anywhere. I'm looking for (1) marriage date, (2) her maiden name, (3) children (if any) and (4) her death date and burial place OR (4) date of divorce.

Harold Arthur married an Elizabeth [UNKNOWN LN] between 1952-1955, probably in Laconia. They had no children. I'm looking for Elizabeth's maiden name, birth and death dates, and the date of their marriage.

Any assistance greatly appreciated!

Siblings born are possibly named Florence Nichols and Lena Nichols.

Do these names and dates ring any bells? State files don't begin till 1883 so that source has been ruled out.

Family Chart of Theophilus Swain

In a 1930 issue of an old DAR magazine I have found a copy of a Family Chart of Theophilus and Elizabeth Swain.The dates on it are in the 1700s. They lived in Germantown, New Hampshire. I am in Indiana and am not familiar with New Hampshire or the counties. This chart might be helpful to someone. Could someone e-mail me and let me know what county Germantown is ( or was) in? Since this chart is of no use to me, I would like to send it to someone who would like to have it.
