A. This is a long shot...but maybe his name was spelled wrong on the census. I found this one that could be a possibility if the name was spelled wrong, but you did not include who any of his siblings may be, so I cannot rule this possibility out. Here in 1880 there is a Lavaries G. Shields, age 9. Right age. When I looked at the original, Lavaries could have been some spelling of Louis or Lewis that ancestry transcribed wrong.

Some help needed on new clues to ancestry ; Does Family Crest allow you to access 1841 Scotland Census?
Q. On this link, the page I'm looking for help on is the third link (1880 United States Federal Census Record). It says he was born in ''about 1873'', which sounds right, because on the 1930 Census, it says my grandfather (Thomas Madigan's) father was 57 years old. It says his father's name was Patrick. Does it say who his mother was? I know it says John Madigan was born in the state of New York, but does it say where specifically? Don't worry about the 4th link. I already have the information from the second link on this link. If you'd like, you could check this page, to see if there's any leads. On the 1st link, this may show where he was born. The year of death is probably off though. The 1910 Census, taken in April 15 1910, recorded… [cont.]

A. Did you know that you can access a transcript of the 1880 census for free at www.familysearch.org? Have a look :) I'll see if I can find anything else useful. *** Edit I don't think that 1880 family with father Patrick is right. If the 1910 census is right John should be married by 1900 but I found John (whose father is Patrick) still living at home in 1900. John P Madigan Home in 1900: Brooklyn Ward 13, Kings, New York Age: 24 Birth Date: Jan 1876 Birthplace: New York Race: White Ethnicity: American Gender: Male Relationship to head-of-house: Son Father's Birthplace: Ireland Mother's Name: Mary Mother's Birthplace: Ireland Marital Status: Single Mary Madigan 50 Mary F Madigan 28 Terence F Madigan 24 John P Madigan 24 (Patrick had… [cont.]

What are the steps I must take...?
Q. What steps must I take to find out the following: 1. I want to find out where Stella Pasuit (also went by Hildebrandt I believe and was Hartman after marriage) was born. I've heard New City, Austria, but Galicia isn't in Austria anymore and hasn't been since the end of A-H. According to a census, (I believe the 1930 census) she came to the United States in 1910 and in 1930 was not naturalized. I've searched the Ellis Island site and find nothing on her. She was born in 1897. 2. August Hartman was born between 1886 and 1888 and came to the United States on La Normandie which went from the port of Le Havre, Normandie, France to New York, New York in around 1888-1889. He was from Alsace-Lorraine. At the time Alsace-Lorraine was a single… [cont.]

A. in reference to stella if she came over here in 1910 unless she came alone she would only have been 12 or 13 years old. there is a stanislaw pasuit listed on the ellis site from austria who was married and arrived here in 1910 as you see below, its possible that was her father. according to the manifest he was to meet a friend in buffalo at least that what it looks like -- First Name: Stanislaw Last Name: Pasuit Ethnicity: Austria, Polish Last Place of Residence: Brzezna, Austria Date of Arrival: Mar 11, 1910 Age at Arrival: 25y Gender: M Marital Status: M Ship of Travel: President Grant Port of Departure: Hamburg Manifest Line Number: 0014 --- august hartman would not have come alone either this is possibly his mother… [cont.]

Is this True ? ......No Tax...on Wages ?
Q. American Citizen's, living and working in the 50 states have no liability to pay federal income taxes and no liability to pay state income taxes, since the Constitution of the United States of America clearly does not allow for a DIRECT, unapportioned tax on Citizen's property or on the fruit of their labors. The recent case in Illinois, United States v. Robert Lawrence highlighted the fraudulent 1040, which does not contain a valid OMB number. The govt asked for the case to be dismissed, because Lawrence's atty intended to expose the fraud and the government was smart enough to realize that this would also expose the Constitutional tort existent because the income tax is a direct unapportioned tax.. The 16th Amendment does not change… [cont.]

Help On Finding Out When My Great-Great-Grandfather died?
Q. I have a lot of information on him. I've put some of it together, but haven't put all of it together yet. So, here's what I know. His name is John Clark. His son, my maternal great-grandfather, is James Clark. I know his son was born in November 1880. I'm not sure what year John Clark was born in, but I know it was in the United States. I'm figuring he was probably born in the neighborhood of 1850. However, I don't know if he was born in New York, but it may be since his son was born there and he died there. I also know he was of Irish descent and Catholic, but not sure if his parents were from Ireland. I'm guessing it's possible though, since most Irish Catholic immigrants came around the Potato Famine. I know there's some interesting… [cont.]

Do you think this is my paternal grandmother's mother?
Q. (Paternal Great-Grandmother?) (Paternal Great-Great Grand-father?) I'm trying to find out if this is my paternal grandmother's mother. Her name is Mary De Santis (Or it may be written as DeSantis). Her middle name was Rose. I'm unsure of when she was born, but I know she died on Nov 29, 1981, in Brooklyn, NY. I believe she was in her 70's at her time of death. I've asked my grandmother, but she doesn't remember where she was born. She knows she was born in the United States though. My great-grandmother's father's name was Augustino De Santis, who was born in Italy. My grandmother who was born on Sept 22, 1939 in Brooklyn, NY.
