He is Canadian.  Born around 1868.  Lived in Niagara Falls, NY.  Married Alice (Albert) Lamb.  Child Catherine Marie Crowley (1908).  Died 1910 age 42.  Wrote poetry under the pen name "Ward McAlister" may be spelled differently.

Thanks

Vicky:

       You've done a wonderful job on his profile, particularly in a very short time.  Are you looking for something in particular?

Thank you for a nice reply Roger. Yes I'm trying to find a link between the Fred crowleys that pop up in research and my great-grandmother Alice (Albert) Lamb. I find no record of their marriage or a census of those two together or a birth certificate of my grandmother Catherine Marie Crowley. I'm sorry I don't have any numbers for these people. I just went back and looked on the site and didn't see a number. Thank you again

Hi Vicky, If you are replying to Roger about the WT ID numbers, it is the last at the top of each profile, and there is a link by their name which is to copy it.  So Mary Alice is Albert-3458 and your grandmother Catherine Marie is Crowley-2729,

Using the RootsSearch on Catherine's page, I thought I had found her living with her parents and grandparents in the 1910 Census, but that should have been after Fredericks death and the father was listed as John Crowley, so guess I was not correct.

Thank you

Answer 1

You will always find more people willing to answer if you had put the links to the people you are asking about, Crowley-2831 would have saved 20 minutes of searching under the less popular names.

You have already cited the 1870 & 1880 census in St Albans, VT.  If you actually view the images, you have his parents and siblings.

Be careful, there is a socialite Ward McAlllister from the 1850-70s

I'm terribly sorry to have caused you 20 minutes of search time. Obviously I am novice at this. I don't even know if the Fred Crowley I have listed is indeed the one I'm looking for and that is why I asked for help

I'm sorry, I meant to only be pointing out a fact, not whining.  I see it may have come across as that.  it was me who kept researching.

Continued today, but not finding any more than you have.

Good hunting!

Answer 2

Vicky:

           I continue to be impressed by all of the work that you have put into this.  I saw what you had done over on ancestry and wasn't finding anything that you hadn't.

          I noticed that in some of the things that you cited she is listed as Catholic,

          Have you tried the Catholic baptismal records for Niagara County?
