Hello again, Murf! You have no idea how helpful were those leads! The only information I had for Freeman H Milward were his birth & baptism dates. Now, I might be able to trace his life in Australia! As for John Milward - he was born in Ireland in 1848 ...... But had emigrated to America in about 18...

How very exciting!
Thanks, Murf!

You have given me very interesting leads ...... Making this research so enticing!

I'll follow them up!

He had left Liverpool in Dec 1908 aboard the RSM...

My great grandmother was a 45 year old widow of means when she and my 15 year old grandfather lived in Dublin in 1901. Her husband had died in 1894 but I do not know when she moved from Ennistymon to Dublin. I'm wondering if there is a difference between the terms "boarder" & "lodger"? In this Censu...

Thank you so much!

Three of my relatives died in this Asylum ~ 2 in 1894 and another in 1890 but they were not mental patients. One had tuberculosis; another had suffered for two years with hepatic disease before dying in 1894. The third died of marasmus in 1890 ~ Marasmus is defined as "malnutrition of the brain" ~ c...
