Bridget Finnerty Egan

Heibult — 4 Aug 2008 3:56:23 GMT

Was Bridget Finnerty Egan removed from Berlin?
According to a record in the Public Library in Berlin, Wis., Bridget Finnerty Egan died and was buried there in Space 1, Lot 27, Block 24. In the county records office, there was a note dated 1874 from Mary A. Victory (her niece) that said the space "may be reused." (Another relative told me that later her husband decided to move to Iowa with his four children and had the body moved to "a little town near Ellsworth." ) - - words of Jim McGuire
She Died: 1877 in Township Warren, Waushara, Wisconsin.
I see a problem with the dates, since she died 3 years after the note was written?
Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Searles - Chamberlain Marriage Lookup

waterbug_1 — 25 Jul 2008 3:01:43 GMT

I am looking for information on the marriage between William George Searles and Elizabeth Chamberlain. We have information that WG arrived to Waushara as a widower with one young child (Margaret) in Dec of 1857. The 1860 census for Bloomfield, Waushara Co. shows him married to Elizabeth.

My presumption is that he married Elizabeth in or around Bloomfield, Waushara Co. between 1858 and 1860, but I cannot find any records at all for Elizabeth Chamberlain in Waushara Co., and apparently the County marriage records are not on the state marriage index.

I am hopeful that someone who has access to the Waushara Co. marriage records would be willing to check them for me and let me know if they are listed and what information is recorded about them. Thanks!

Cheers

George Billington - Waushara, Wisconsin

LHaskins7404 — 30 Dec 2006 4:19:46 GMT

George Billington's first wife apparently was Julia Ette Haskins. He married several times - either they divorced or Julia Ette died. Is anyone researching this family? According to census records, George was born in Ohio. Louisa Billington, George's sister??, married James J. Haskins and lived in Wisconsin. After she divorced James J. - he deserted the family in 1882 - she married Edward Haskins in Cloud County, Kansas. I would like to know if George and Louisa were brother/sister and who their parents might be. I would also like to know more about Julia Ette. Any information would be welcome!

I hope someone can help me with ANY info. about this very stubborn branch of my family tree.
