I'm looking for a Thomas P. Jeffords that was born in NY. There is some conflicting information from the census records. I have his birth from his grave as July 1886, although two other censuses list 1888 and 1892.
I know he was in the army. He married Olive May Jeffords (maiden name) who had been married to a Frederick Schramm previously and had a daughter Cynthia with him. He passed away and she remarried. Thomas and Olive's children's names were: Jerry/ Jeremiah, John, Jimmy, Harold, Elinore, Emma and Olive.
I think I may have found Thomas's parents/ siblings on an 1880's census with the potential parents listed as Jeremiah (1842) and Ellen Driscoll (1847) (both born in Ireland). Their children are listed as: Cornelius, Margaret (married as Roberts), Mary, Ellen, William, and Elizabeth. Thomas was born later on.
I've been trying to track them down using:
http://churchrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/But it's hard to narrow down which Ellen or Jeremiah they are. (Not sure how true to stay to the supposed birth years listed). I found individuals that may be the correct people but I'm not sure how to confirm or disprove that they are or aren't.
Attached I have the documents with the possible family of Jeremiah and Ellen.
I'd appreciate any help!!!
Thanks!
