Alfred L'Heureux, Trinity College Alum - 1913

kellyrock133 — 28 Sep 2008 5:04:59 GMT

I am seeking information on my great great grandfather Alfred Joseph L’HEURUEX and his wife Katherine MABON. I believe Alfred graduated from Trinity College in Hartford, CT in 1913 and received the Trinity College Alumni Medal for Excellence in 1959.

After completing college, he married Katherine Mabon.

L’Heureux and Mabon were married and had two sons, one of them being my grandfather, William McRaee L’Heureux. William was born January 12, 1927 in Hagensack, NJ. William was married to Madelyn Theresa Hamel in 1959 in Clinton County, NY. William died in Plattsburgh, NY on August 12, 1976.

Any information on Joseph L’Heureux and Katherine Mabon like their birth dates/ deaths and also on their parent's names and birthplaces would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Kelly Rock

Seeking Irish Hartford Residents: COUGHLIN, SMITH, POWERS (also FITZGERALD, LAWTON, SADLER)

EvansDavidS — 13 Jun 2006 9:29:55 GMT

I am researching the following families, all of whom resided in the city of Hartford from the mid-to-late 1800s through to the mid-20th century: COUGHLIN, SMITH, and POWERS. I am seeking ancestors, descendants, or collateral relations of Michael COUGHLIN and Catherine FITZGERALD; they had five children that I know of: William F., Annie J., John Joseph, Michael L., and James H.

I am also seeking ancestors, collateral relatives, or descendants of George J. SMITH and Ellen POWERS. They had seven children: Ellen A. (Ella), Mary L. (Essie), Agnes, Bertha H., Frederick F., Alice, and George L. (George L. SMITH lived in Wethersfield for a number of years, I believe).

I am also seeking the ancestors or collateral relatives of Ellen POWERS. Her parents were John J. POWERS and Margaret LAWTON, and she had three siblings that I know of so far: two brothers, James J. POWERS and Edward P. POWERS and a sister (first name unknown), who married Ernest SADLER and they lived in Niantic.

If you think we have a connection or want further information, get in touch with me. Thanks and good luck with your own research!

Search: John MCCONVILLE Manchester, CT

gracemcconville1 — 29 Sep 2008 7:11:15 GMT

I am looking for information on my great grandfather John Joseph Francis MCCONVILLE.

He was born in Portadown, Ireland (Armagh County)-I am unsure of the date. He married Catherine MCCONVILLE (maiden name: MCDONNELL), also from Portadown.

They had 4 children: Theresa, Mary, John, and James Patrick (my grandfather- born April 18, 1927, died in January 1976)

John and Catherine moved to Manchester, CT sometime before 1927 (as my grandfather-and I don’t know how many/if any of his siblings- was born in Manchester, CT).

John worked at Cheney Mills in Manchester, CT as well.

Thank you,
Grace McConville

Dolar Davis link? Davis and Alderman in Simsbury/Granby CT

alheatherington — 18 Sep 2008 6:33:28 GMT

I am looking for information about the ancestry of Gaylord Davis, born 1799 in Granby, CT. His parents were Samuel Davis and Lucretia (no maiden name) according to his death record.

There is a marriage record for Samuel Davis and Lucretia Alderman, 26 May 1785, in Granby, CT. Are these Gaylord Davis' parents?

Then, there is a Samuel Davis born 18 MAR 1766 Simsbury Twp, Hartford, Connecticut, to Jacob Davis and his wife Elizabeth Lewis. Is this the same Samuel who married Lucretia Alderman?

If he *is*, then the line for Gaylord Davis b. 1799, Granby, ties into the well-known Dolar Davis line.

Can anyone help me validate any of my suspected links?

What I'd really like to have is 1) better evidence that Gaylord's mother's maiden name was Alderman, and 2) evidence that the Samuel Davis who married Lucretia Alderman was indeed the son of Jacob Davis and Elizabeth Lewis.
The dates and locations fit, but "Samuel Davis" was not an uncommon name.

Thanks.

Pasco Family in Hartford County, CT

MikeSutton57 — 18 Jan 2002 2:47:08 GMT

I'm looking for any information on the Pasco Family who lived in the county in the early/mid 1800s. My ancestor Henry Pasco was born in CT about 1821. I have found him listed in Davis County, Ia in the 1850 Census listed as born in CT. I checked the 1850 Census for Pasco's and found several all in Hartford County. In the 1860 Census they are in Moultrie County, Illinois. I have never researched Hartford County, so any help you can give me would be appreciated. I've heard that his father may be a Lester Pasco but I have no proof of this. I did find a Pasco Family listed in the History of Ancient Windsor CT Vol. 2 by Stiles. I'm not sure of the connection though. Any help would be appreciated!

I have microfilms on Bristol Vital Records

Deborah Zipoli — 20 Jan 2006 8:52:55 GMT

I have two microfilms from the LDS Church/Family History Center on Bristol Vital Records if there is something anyone needs to have looked up. The dates on film are:
Marriages - 1820-1841
Births & Deaths - 1791-1947
Marriages 1841- 1854
Births, Deaths, Marriages - 1847-1871
Births - 1871-1892
Births - 1892-1897
Marriages & Deaths - 1871-1898
Births, Marriages, Deaths - 1898-1903

These are not the actual certificates microfilmed, but rather the vital registry books. They do have a lot of helpful information though.

I have looked quickly through both these films and found a lot of valuable information. I go to the Family History Center at least once a week and will be reviewing these films again more thoroughly, so if you need a look up of an event that happened during any of the dates above, please email me.
This is for free, I am just trying to be helpful with the materials I have as others have been helpful in my searches.

Jonathan P Twiss

jakemyers69 — 30 Jul 2008 10:55:17 GMT

Hello, I am seeking to locate JP Triss of Hartford, CT to seek out information regarding the ancestry of his William Tubbs, & James Lewis ancestors as listed in the amazing 1998 two tome Tillotsen Gen, published by Margaret T Ragsdale. He helped her with documenting the Lewis's. I am likely a descendant of James brother, George Lewis,(b cir 1730,moed 1791 to NY from Lyme, Ct), thru his dau Mary, who mar 1782 to William Burnham, of Hartford, who was a Ship's carpenter in the Lyme area, but died in 1783. She likely remarried a Samuel Larkins, my ancestor. They were East Lyme Baptists & Jonathan P Twiss, researched these church records. Samuel was an apprentice shipwright, to George, whom was a Master Shipwright, building ships on the Four Ri^er (old Tillotsen Land) for others & to sell. The Larkins came to Lyme in cir 1782-84 & likely relocated to New London or Mystic, CT after 1793-98, where Samuel died. I am looking for Shipyard or Church records with their names on them, such as a membership, profession or attendance record, as well as Cemetary records, such as the Old Tubb's Cem, where Old John Lewis was buried in 1758. JP Twiss was familiar with these families. Thanks for helping, Jake Myers

I have checked every record that I can think of and can not find Asa Robinson in that town. I was hoping that if I could find some connection it would help me know where to go from here. I was wondering if there were any family stories about tenants. Were the Robinson's tenants of the Munns? What was their connection?? Marcena and Asa were the same age. Both born about 1770/1771. Any thoughts would be welcome.

Looking for William B Johnson decendants

PaulWheeler79 — 8 Jun 2008 11:31:12 GMT

William B Johnson married Mary Bernhardt Klein somewhere around 1935. It was her second marriage, possibly his. They lived @ 254 Main Street in Hartford from 1935 until her death. She passed in 1960. I know he was there in 1961. I do not know when he passed but they were not buried together. He worked for Pratt and Whitney as an inspector in the Charter Oak Division at the time of her death. Her obituary states she had more grandchildren and great grandchildren than she had from her first marriage so I am trying to find any descendants to see if they have any info about her. I have combed the Hartford Courant obits and found nothing that seemed to be of him. Any one have any suggestion what I can do to discover who he was and possibly find any relatives?

CT 1635-1807 Misc. Records

Delia2005 — 3 Jun 2008 4:22:22 GMT

Hello,

I have found the following records at ancestry.com:

Ebenezer Woodwarth CT Hartford County Farmington 1711
Ebenezer Jr. Woodwarth CT Hartford County Farmington 1711
Ezekel Woodwarth CT Hartford County Farmington 1711
Ichabod Woodworth CT Hartford County Farmington 1711

I assume the 1711 census was a list of residents of Hartford County, but were they definitely living in Farmington? Also, were all males included in this 1711 census, regardless of age? Some of the above were supposed to be little boys in 1711.

Correct name of Town

foots49 — 28 May 2008 2:27:40 GMT

I have information that a wife of a family member was born in Newgate, Simsbury, Hartford Co. Is there an area in Simsbury called Newgate? The time frame of the birth is 1790. I know that Newgate Prison is in East Grandby and that East Grandby was settled by people from Simsbury. So back in the 1790s was the area where the prison sits now known as Newgate and was it apart of Simsbury?

Rachel Wheeler, Rachel Eaton, Rachel Paulk, born 1705, Concord, Middlesex County, MA

wheel599 — 14 May 2008 9:31:36 GMT

Rachel Paulk was my 6th great grandmother. Rachel Paulk was born on 06 Dec 1705 in Concord, Middlesex County, Massachusetts. Her parents were Samuel Paulk and Sarah Brabrook. Rachel Paulk married 1st William Eaton in 1726, Tolland, Tolland County, CT. William Eaton was born July 1700, Windsor, Hartford County, CT and died 1737, Tolland, Tolland County, CT. Widow Rachel Eaton married 2nd Nathan Wheeler on 23 Apr 1741, Tolland, Tolland County, CT. Nathan Wheeler died 17 Jan 1766, Amenia, Dutchess County, NY.

My question is Rachel’s death date. I can not locate a reliable death date for her in Connecticut or Dutchess County, NY. There does not seem to be a grave site for her in the “Burying Ground at Coleman's Station”, North East, Dutchess County, NY where her husband Nathan was buried at his death in 1766. I would appreciate any help or clues that you may have. Best regards, Richard Wheeler

was one of Hooker's party. We were in Hartford last

do have a small book, "The Original Proprietors" which
gives info on him, but there is no address for the Society.
Benjamin left Hartford ca. 1649, removed to Springfield,

Hartford Sullivans Where are you?

wdromanski — 7 May 2008 2:55:13 GMT

Hello,

I have been collecting information on Hartford Sullivans for quite some time. My database has about 1800 Sullivans in it, the better part of them with Hartford connections:

http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=SHOW&...

My own Sullivans are the James Joseph Sullivans:

http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&d...

James Joseph Sullivan was likely from Killorglin, Kerry, Ireland. He came to Hartford about 1884 and settled in the Avon Street/North Street/Windsor Street neighborhoods.

He supposedly had 5 brothers. Were any in Hartford?

He may be connected to the Daniel Sullivan and Mary Kelliher family:

http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&d...

and the James Sullivan and Margaret (Mary?) Diggin family:

http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&d...

both apparently from Killorglin too.

I really would like to hear from anyone with Sullivans in Hartford. The information in my database is all that I have and is well documented. Hopefully someone might have more to share.

Seeking more information on my great grandmother ELIZABETH McCLURE (b. 19 August 1913- d. 13 November 2003). Looking for her parents and first spouse of whom I have no information. Elizabeth lived much of her life in Simsbury, CT but I'm not sure where she was born.

Elizabeth and her first husband had a son named Donald Joy (not sure of other children). Her first husband is my grandfather of whom I am seeking information.(I only know that his last name was Joy.)

Elizabeth married Harold (Mac) McCLURE (b. 27 October 1918- d. 2 September 1999) after her first husband.

Elizabeth McCLURE donated her body to science upon her death and due to limited contact with this side of the family I am unsure of any other information, although I do know that she died in Ivoryton, CT.

Any information on Elizabeth McClure's first husband Joy or her parents or other children would be greatly appreciated.

Southington Churches, Cemeteries and Directories 1880's

EdOConnor66 — 9 Feb 2008 6:12:59 GMT

I've been trying to track a family line of mine for quite awhile...I've received a lot of good information from helpful and knowledgable folks along the way and now I'm trying a little harder to ask the right questions....

In Volume 8 of Births Marriages and Deaths( 1887-1893) page 4, there is an entry for the marriage of Melius Sante age 27 and Ellen Lennor(? Lannon) Costello age 26. It was a second marriage for her and first for him. The marriage was performed by Rev. Edward Bray of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Does such a Church still exist today in Southington ? If not, did it evolve into some other denomination ? I'm wondering where their records might be located ?

Secondly, some of their children died at a young age ? Was there a cemetery associated with that Church and if so, where is it now ?

Finally, how far back to the Town Directories go for the town of Southington ? I'm looking for information from the mid to late 1880's....would directories have existed that far back ?

A Rowlandson - Beckley Mystery

RichardMCochran — 1 Jan 2008 8:50:48 GMT

An entry in the Public Records of the Colony of Connecticut, 1636-1776, p. 211 contains an entry that may hold a clue to the identity of Hannah, the wife of Zebedee Beckley (1734-1776), of Wethersfield, Conn. Hannah's maiden name is not contained in Sheppard's Beckley Genealogy (1948).

The entry under consideration pertains to a petition lodged against "Abraham Harriss, of Weathersfield" by "Joseph Roulandson" a minor under 21 who presented a petition through his guardian, Zebedee Beckley, also of Wethersfield. Joseph was joined in this action by his sister, Hannah, also a minor, who petitioned through her guardian, Caleb Galpin of Great Barrington, Berkshire Co., Mass.

A little research into the Rowlandsons reveals that Joseph and Hannah were the orphaned children of Phineas Rowlandson (30 Aug 1731-28 Jan 1759) and his wife Ruth Williams.

Phineas Rowlandson had one brother, Wilson (30 Sep 1733-1 Jul 1775), and two sisters, Thankful (b. 13 Aug 1727) widow of Captain William Ford (and mother of eight children) and Hannah, b. 7 Aug 1729.

The only record I can find of Hannah Rowlandson was her marriage to David "Pick" (Peck?) in Farmington, CT on June 1, 1749. I have not been able to determine whether Hannah and David Peck had children.

While the Beckley Genealogy (Zebedee Beckley is covered in pp. 41-49) does not reveal the maiden name of Zebedee's wife, Hannah, a lengthly list of real estate transactions is included and beginning with the first one (1758), four of the deeds mention Phineas Rowlandson.

Question: is it plausible to suppose that Zebedee and Hannah Beckley became the guardians of Joseph Rowlandson because Hannah Beckley was, in reality, the sister of Joseph's father, Phineas, and Hannah married Zebedee Beckley as her second husband?

Can anyone help solve this mystery?

She was for sure born in CT and this area is where all family was located.
