John Fitzgerald and Emily Tennyson Fitzgerald
John Fitzgerald was born between 1815 and 1818 in Ireland or Northern Ireland. Unsure when he died. Emily Tennyson, his wife, was born around 1821 Either in Ireland or England. They were married in New York, according to the state census enumeration of one son.
I was told that Emily is buried in 'the catholic cemetery or the catholic part of the cemetery'. But which one?????
Their oldest son, William Tennyson was born 4 Jul 1840 in New York City. He d.11 Jul 1921 in Williamsport PA. Buried in Union Cemetery, Bellefonte, PA
Then they had:
Mary b. abt 1844 in Pennsylvania d. bef 1933
Emma b. abt 1846 in Pennsylvania d. bef 1933
Thomas (my GGGG-pa) b. 21 May 1848 in Danville, Columbia Co, PA (now in Montour Co.) and d. 12 Oct 1932 in Clam Lake Twp, Wexford County, MI buried in Clam Lake Twp Cemetery.
Agnes b. Dec 1849 in PA d. bef 1933.
John b. abt 1851 d. bef 1933
M. b. abt 1855 d. bef 1933
James Francis b. 18 May 1858 in Bloomsburg Twp, Columbia Co, PA d. 26 Sept 1933 in Lewisburg, Union Co, PA buried in Chestnut Hills Cemetery.
Edward b. mar 1861 in PA and d. after 1933, likely in Iowa.
and one unknown child.
There is an Emma living with a James in the 1870 census, but I am unsure if this is my Emily and James. I was also told by another descendent from another son that Emily died shortly after Edward was born due to complications of child birth. They are found in Bloomsburg, PA in the 1850 and 1860 Census. I have Thomas' pension record and it states that he was married in Williamsport and the only mention of his parents is a response to a request for his birth record by the pension office and he states his parents are deceased.
There is a John listed as dying on 20 Nov 1860 in Lewisburg, PA, however 2 obituaries for this John only state that "John Fitzgerald died the 20 of ult (last month)". I have been attempting to get a death record transcription for this John Fitzgerald. John, Jr. may have moved to the NW part of the state for work. I was told by my GrUncle (my Gpa's brother) that 3 of Thomas' brother's died during the civil war.
Help me break down my brickwall, I've been searching for more information on John and Emily for 10 years now!

Ok, I have an answer to this...There is an obit in another paper that specifically states taht Edward was still living at the time of James' death. I don't have an electronic copy of that one, but I will can the ones I have in the next couple of days. There were around 3 or 4 of them. The one I posted was just sent to me recently and I have a hard copy of that one already.

Ok Here they are.
There are 2 more obits and a Funeral annoucement. Plus the one I posted earlier. I'm going to also look through my files and see if I have anything else I can scan and add. I'm sure I do, but it might not be until the weekend...I do have to go to class the next couple of days. - Attachments:

Just checking in. I'm addining my updated Family Group sheet for John and Emily. There isn't much new from the old one. I've written away for information as well as contacting the Columbia County Historical and Genealogical Society for some research assistance. I've confirmed with the cemetery in Milton, PA that Susan (Quigley) Fitzgerald (John and Emily's Daughter in law) is buried in St. Jospeh Cahtolic Cemetery.
I've also be re-reviewing this discussion for ideas that I have yet to follow up on. -

I guess I should have added the file. :)

Well, I have found additional information on my Fitzgerald family. I've been concentrating my research on my Fitzgerald family. I'm uploading my most recent research. I have found death dates for Edward and his wife and their burial....they ended up in LA. Also found some additional information on a couple of the children.
Anyway...If anyone has any insight, as always, help is profoundly appreciated.
