CRAPON, Daniel in the 1900 census for Woonsocket. The page is very illegible from Daniel down. I can see his wife Rowena, and a son-in- law Fred, married to Rowena's daughter Alice G., but the last name of the children is impossible to read. Daniel was a tinsmith. I think Fred might have been also, but cannot be sure. Fred was Alice's second husband, her first was William J. Lowry, but cannot find a marriage registration for Alice G. Lowry and Fred anyone after 1893. Any suggestions?

I am searching for details of John F. CHRISTIE, last known address was 93 Elm Street Pawtucket. According to the city directory he moved to Providence in 1912 but we have no further information. His mother Catherine returned to Ireland in 1908 and died there in 1909. John came to Ireland in 1909 and returned in 1910 accompanied by his second cousin Brigid MURPHY and another US citizen Mrs LAVELLE. John's father Peter was killed at work in 1906 and is buried in Mount St. Marys. A cousin named John LITTLEFIELD was reared in the CHRISTIE Household. I would like to know if anyone could recall any information leading to the whereabouts of this elusive ancestor in his later years. Thanking you

I am seeking information on Rachel CRYER, Annie GEE and Samuel WOODHEAD. What is known: Annie (GEE) WOODHEAD and Rachel CRYER arrived in Providence from England, 1912, through Ellis Island. On the ships manifest, both had been living at 308 Manton Avenue for five years prior to this journey. Rachel appears to have a relative named WHITEHEAD, a woolen manufacturer on Lily Street. Rachel, 42, appears to have been Ann's, age 21, step mother. Ann is married to Samuel WOODHEAD, an accountant at a textile manufacturer. Sam was born Stalybridge, Eng, 1888 and Ann, in Romiley, 1890. Sam and Ann must have married in Rhode Island between 1905 and 1912, either in Pawtucket or Providence at an Episcopal Church. They were living in Pawtucket in 1914, when my mother Edith WOODHEAD was born. I am seeking any information about Sam and Ann's marriage, and Edith's baptism. Also any information on Rachel CRYER, where she died and is buried. I have been looking all over for this marriage in England, but now it appears I was looking in the wrong country!!!
