Hi Marilyn,

Received the 1915 Rhode Island census papers today. Would have had them sooner, but we took off for a long weekend and just got our mail today!

Not a lot new in them, but it was interesting to find that Eleanor Longmuir, the daughter, was a librarian at the Historical Society! I wonder if she did look-ups for family trees?

Hi Carol,

Those census documents showed up right in the middle of the TS "crash" and I only gave them a quick glance, but I'm looking at them right now. I wonder if she worked for the Rhode Island Historical Society? Don't you think she'd be rolling over in her grave if she knew we can't find her parents grave plot? Speaking of, did you ever write that letter to the owner of Oakland Cemetery?

Regards
Marilyn

No, I never wrote the letter. The note is still sitting in my pile of things to do! Right now I'm buried in print outs for one of my second cousins on the Finnish side of the family! And, another relative in Finland popped up on Facebook after seeing my page there. He's been sending pictures of my great grandmother's family so I've been spending quite a bit of time with that too.

Thanks again for the census records!
