Subject: Re: [NVSTOREY] Gold Hill, Storey, NV
Hello,
I am researching the Peter Holmes family. I find that Peter, and his
children Anastasia and Lawrence all died in 1873 and are buried at the
Catholic
Cemetery in Gold Hill.
I am assuming there was some sort of epidemic that year, does anyone have
information regarding what may have been going on at that time. Also, I
find
that there is another family buried in their plot 90 at Gold Hill, the JJ
and M O'Reilly children, Agnes, Anastasia, Eugene John Mary William. Does
anyone have information on this O'Reilly family? Four of the children
died
in 1874, another epidemic?
Peter's wife Margaret Mary Byrne Ireland, died 1899 is buried at Gold Hill
as well. Anyone have any information on the Byrne's.
Any help anyone can provide or links to other sources would be greatly
appreciated.
Thank you,
Pat
