"Have you found death records for Catherine and her siblings? That would be the best record to locate parents names- you might also try baptism records in Ireland if they exist-"

records

What records are available for Philadelphia from the 1884-1900 time period? I am trying to discover who my g-grandmothers (Catherine Ford or 'Kate", "Katie") parents were. Or at least where my g-grandmother and her siblings were living in that time period. The siblings immigrated from Ireland in 1884 to Philadelphia on the Lord Gough. The passengers are in alphabetical order and there are no adult Fords listed with them. The siblings are listed as Bridget 16, Kate 14, Patrick. 11, and Martin 8.…See More

broken gravestone

Maybe someone can help me out. My gg grandfather's gravestone is knocked over and cracked in half in the Lancaster Cemetery in Lancaster PA . I posted a photo request on "Find a grave" and the photographer who filled the request found it on the ground. It looks like it has been there for a while.
