They had 2 children that we know of CHARLES FRANCIS(aka
FRANK,B. 10/1876 in NJ, my GF and WILLIAM H B. 5/1893 in NJ. CHARLES (fRANK) married AGNES KEENOY ABT. 1900, had 12 children, 6 of whom survived. John. Francis, Daniel, Edward, Anna, Louis. They lived in the Rockaway Beach area of NY, as far as we know the children were all born there. Any connections out there??

Not too sure about the names or places. My grandfather gave me a family tree but it only goes back to Arkansas and Missouri but I do know that we are from Scot-Irish descent.
Thanks you also for such nice replies.
Did I give you my website address?

I'm researching my family from Southeastern PA. John and Lewis CRISTY/CHRISTY lived in Oxford/Lower Oxford, Chester County PA in the mid to late 1820's. I have descendant information on Lewis (my 3g grandfather), however, I have no information on his parents. I would appreciate any help in locating his parents, possibly born @1780ish? somewhere in PA.
Thanks, Mark

Good grief, Tom!!! An outlaw would be welcome--I have so many "straight and narrow Christians in my family."
Are your relatives from Antrim, Ireland? Do you have any Sheller, Mullen or Johns relatives. Any other family names that might have settled in Philadelphia, Upper Darby or West Chester?
Thanks for your response,
Fran Pelham

Most probably there is a connection to Ireland - unfortunately I have no proof of that. We are also related to the James-Younger outlaw gang from Missouri.

I too have some information on Thomas and Jemima Hughes Christie/Christy
Descendants of Samuel Christie
Samuel Christie b: Abt. 1816
. +Elizabeth b: Abt. 1810 m: Abt. 1828
In 1850 Fed Census for Mason Co., VA a school teacher Frederick Peters
was living in Samuel's household. Note also that three members of
Samuel's household (age 19, 15, and 12) attended school that year.
NOTE - due to Samuel's age and the age of Elizabeth and Thomas, it is
probable that either the age of Samuel is wrong and he was perhaps 44
(Born 1806 instead of 1916) and not 34 (Thomas if a son of Sam's would
have been born when Sam was 12 and his mother 18). Also, although Sam
was head of the household, it was perhaps his MOTHER Eliza (or step
mother/2nd wife to Sam's dad), and Sam's siblings rather than his wife
and children ???? Another researcher (mary1114(a)fuse.net) also wondered
if Samuel and Thomas were brothers and not father and son. Of note,
Abraham Christie, Amanda and Emily Christie below as possible children of
Sam and Eliza(beth) Christie all have birth dates closely matching those
of Abraham Christy (b 1830-1850??) son of John and Catherine Christy and
that of Abraham's sister Eliza Christy b: March 17, 1811 who married
John Barker on August 24, 1831 Gallia Cty, OH. There first two children
were Amanda Barker b: July 28, 1836 and Emily Barker b: October 06, 1838
In the 1850 Mason Co., WV census maybe Eliza had moved back in with her
two daughters for some reason with her father and some of her brothers.
Possible overlap of these families??

Have located in 1900 Illinois Census - Cook County
Christy J H b 1854 (Michigan ?)
Sophia (maiden name unknown)
b 1857 (Wisconsin ?) d 1932 (Illinois)
Eight Children Born from 1878 to 1899...
Sophia, Joseph, Emma, Lena, Fannie, Arthur, Walter, Herbert
We found that the first three of these children married three siblings of the Eckerly family (probably prox 1910):
Sophia married Joseph Eckerly
Emma married Joseph's brother John Eckerly.
Joseph Christy married Mary Eckerly, sister of Joseph & John Eckerly.
The Eckerly family lived on Lawndale Ave in near NW side of Chicago. We suspect that the Christy family lived somewhere nearby, but are not sure.
We have found nothing more about the latter five children, nor of a Eugene Christy who was witness to the marriage of George Eckerly, son of Sophia and Joseph Eckerly prox 1931 in Chicago.
Anyone with any family link info please let me know.
