Buchl, York |
I am looking for information on
Thomas York
who died in Cottonwood in 1948. He
was born in Bangor Maine June 13
1903. He was in Cottonwood working
on a road living with his
girlfriend; his two sons were in an
orphange in Auburn California. I
know he did not drive and I believe
he could not read. He claims to have
been from Russia and those who knew
him remember his thick accent.
I have a copy of his death
certificate and social security
application. On his marriage
certificate he claims his father,
Jack York, was born in NYC and his
mother, Alma Buchl,
was born in Hartford Conn. He refers
to his father also as Thomas and his
mother as Anna Butchl. ANY help on
this line would be of great help. I
am wondering if there was an obit in
the local paper? Thank You. |

Macanphy, McKelvey,
Mulanphy |
Looking for any information
concerning John Mullanphy (and
various other spellings such as:
Macanphy, Macanphly, Mulanphy,
Malanphy, Mcelvey).
John was born ca. 1805 in Ireland
and appeared on the 1850 California
Census as a 55-year old miner for
gold on Mathinas (?) Creek, El
Dorado County, California. At that
time he was living with another
miner, William R. Hicks, a 49-year
old native of Massachusetts who
possessed $4000 worth of real
estate. John appears living alone on
the 1860, 1870, and 1880 Censuses of
Shasta County, California. In 1860,
he is living in Horsetown and is
enumerated as John Macanpley,
a 55-year old miner and native of
Ireland. In 1870, he is John Mulanphly,
65-year old miner and native of
Ireland, living in Township 5,
Stillwater, Shasta County. In 1880,
he is John Malanphy, a 73-year old
miner still residing alone in
Township 5, Shasta County. He and
both his parents are listed as
having been born in Ireland and he
is enumerated as married despite the
fact that no wife or family was
located with him in that or the
previous three census years.
I realize chances are slim, but any
information concerning this
individual would be greatly
appreciated. |

think maybe around 1920 but before a
deed dated 29 Sep 1935). Walter
worked for the Millers. He was a
stock rancher. He helped to move all
the cattle to Redding CA in the fall
and the winter months and back in
the spring to Fort Klamath, OR. On
one deed is Troy M. Miller. I would
like to know which Miller family was
in Redding area during the1 920's -
maybe up to the 60's and/ or longer?
Carrie had a daughter that married a
Sullivan.
Her name was either Martha or Ethel.
Any help on finding this family's
records would be wonderful. |

Greene, Signett |
I am trying to research my family
and I believe my maternal
grandparents lived in the Redding
area for quite some time and are
buried there. My Grandmother's name
was Charletta (Letty) Lucille Signett
nee Greene.
I believe she was born 7/16/1896.
She died in Redding sometime
between1959 and 1961.
My Grandfather was Fred P. Signett
and his date of birth is 11/08/1894.
I don't know when he died exactly,
but I think it was a couple of years
after my grandmotherso 1961-1963.
What I am trying to find out is - if
there is any information that can be
gleaned from the records in Redding,
CA that will lead me to either of
their families (their place of
birth, parents names etc.) Before
her death, my mother told me that my
grandfather had worked for Shasta
County in the road department. That
would have been in the 1940' and
50's she thought. Any information
would be more than I have now. Since
this is the sum of what I know. |
