Ohio Families

Determining Rose's birth year has been difficult from the US records. Her ages on the 1910 and 1920 censuses point to a birth year of 1874. When emigrating, she said she was born about 1872. The information on her death record, provided by her husband, said she was born in about 1870. On all the records, she is consistently older than her husband, which makes me think that she also consistently shaved a few years off her age.

Between them they had $50, but were not holding tickets to their final destination. Had not been in the US before

-------------------
Note: There was a Mary Pearl in Albany who had been born in Ireland about 1830. She was the widow of John Pearl, and had sons Thomas (born in New York in July 1852) and John (born in Ohio about 1860). She was living at 8 Jefferson, Albany, in 1898 and 1899, but she died on March 27, 1899. I have not determined her maiden name or county of origin in Ireland.
