Dear Listies

I have been sending the same mail to the Hannover group, cause we have been
talking there about that family too, so dont wonder .....


We have been talking about the search in the 1880 Census (and in all census
years). I never found George E. Hattorf (who's father was coming from Lower
Saxony) in the 1880 Census someone sayd he may be not in New York this year. So
i am searching like an IDIOT to find this family for 3 years

Well .....Yesterday i found something new at ancestry.com:

_List of registered voters in the city of New York, for the year 1880_
(http://www.ancestry.com/search/db.aspx?dbid=19518&enc=1)

And who is in the list: Fourtheenth assembly district, 8 election district,
362 enumeration.

3RD Avenue House Number 115 George E. Hattorf and in another apartement
Elisha van Brunt.

I know Hattorf is not to find so i was looking for all people living around
(my wifes idea) and finally i found Greater New York Manhatten.

And i found all people in the list ......................... NO George E.
Hattorf !!!!
Looks like another family is living in his apartement. And now i cant find
him in the index. Is he one of those forgotten people, so will i ever see him
and his wife and the name of his children ???? This is not fair really not
fair i am so sad now.

The only chance seems to be to find him in the 1885 New York Census, but
this one is of course not only so i will need a researcher in New York.

Anyway have a fine weekend

Sniff Armin
