Margaret Dale's Page

That's cool. Well, I haven't had much time for genealogy stuff. I am embroiled in personal matters for a while. I did have a moment here and will do so when I get a few minutes to add more to your collection of Dale documentation. This is a 1910 Census where Rosa is seen working as a housekeeper for a family. It's not too readable as a lot of those old census are. Will get back with more when time allows. Hope you are doing well.

Strange happening here. I was just organizing all my bookmarks and found this old link to some site I must have used ages ago looking up Cole/Coles people. I decided to check it out again and found more about your Dales. You might want to check it out further.

This hyperlink deal is not working here so you'll have to cut and paste.

Oh my dear Margaret. How awful about your fall and tooth. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you didn't injure anything else in the process. Thanks for the link. I'll check it from time to time but I doubt we will have any luck. I've posted in many places myself in the past with no results. Thanks for trying. Is there anything in emigration records for John?

I'll be posting more info for you sometime this weekend. I just haven't had a chance to do any computer work today. If time permits I'll make sure do do more lookups. This Dale family is rather interesting. It makes you wonder what life was like back then in that part of this country.

Anyway, I do hope you have recovered from your misfortune and do feel better. Dental work is no fun.

I forgot to add Noah Bennett's death record so here it is.

Next I worked on Lydia Ann Dale. She married a Noah William Bennett as you probably know. Here are copies of the census, death of Noah and Draft record. They had a lot of children too! Of course you will find Lydia living with her parents in census before 1910. I rotated, cropped, highlighted and resized these as they are quite large files the way they were. I'll work on some other later this week.

Have you contacted any of the people who have Wilford trees? I haven't forgotten my promise to you so I had a few minutes here and thought I'd upload more info I found for you. These are for Cyrus Dale. I had set up a tree on Ancestry for Wilford Dale as it's easier for me to look for things that way. I hope I'm not duplicating records you might already have so let me know if that's the case.

Margaret,

I just searched for William Kelsall in the Ryerson Index http://www.ryersonindex.org/ There is a death recorded earlier this year that fits in with his birth in 1918.

KELSALL William (Bill) Death notice 24APR2009 Death 90 late of Woonona Illawarra Mercury Published 25APR2009

If you go to the main Ryerson page you will find a "Contact Us" icon, click on that and send an email their Secretary to see if it is possible for one of their volunteers to send you a transcription of the death notice.

Regards, Jill

Thanks, Margaret but I cannot open the file as it only works with I.E. and I use Firefox as my browser. However, I have already looked in GenForum many times with no luck. Can you tell me briefly what you found in the marriage lookups? I figured John was born around 1710 +/- 10 years. The only other suggestion I would have is for you to check emmigration records out of England to see if there is any John Cole that left around 1736 bound for New England. Unfortunately, I cannot even tell you what part of England he might have been from. I did find some immigration records for several John Coles into America but not enough detail to prove any of them. I really gave you a very challenging exercise. I commend you for even trying. Between my grandfather and myself it's been some 70+ years of searching for this illusive person!

Here's another member of the Wilfred Dale family. He is William A. Dale. I am enclosing his draft card, death citation (CA so he must have moved there at one point) and also the 1920 Federal Census where he was living with a brother-in-law named Pat Gooley. I wonder if William was ever married. Turns out ths family is fairly easy to trace. Will send more when I find time.
