Subject: Help reading 1900 US Census page
Date: Tue, 21 Dec 2004 20:14:59 -0500


Dear Listers, I need some help reading a Census page. I finally found the CONDON/CONDREN family in the 1900 US. As I suspected, the name is illegible, which explains why it wasn't indexed, but it is definitely the correct family. If anyone could help read part of it, I would really appreciate it. If you can help, please go to 1900 US; NY State; NY County; Manhattan Borough; ED 43; page 5; Lines 19, 20 & 21. Line 19 is Mamie (Mary), looks like Aug. 1877, 22 yrs. Follow across to "occupation". There are numbers listed. I also noticed this same thing on some of the other entries on the page. Would anyone know what they signify? Line 20 is Anna, Aug.?; 1879, 20 yrs. Occupation looks like "gentlewoman"? Line 21 is Timothy. I know his birth date was March 1881 and he was a lithographer. They are all siblings. I never would have found them in 1900 if it weren't for the kind soul at Calvary Cemetery who sent me the address (135 Varick Street) on a purchase of plots by !
Timothy in 1905. I was doing this look-up for my sister-in-law, Muriel Condon Diviney, who knew very little about her dad's (Timothy) family. There is still a missing brother, Edward, but I've given up on finding him! Thanks to anyone who can help. Terry in Michigan
