I found 2 Alice Egan b RI in
Rhode Island Births, 1636-1930
Name: Alice J Egan
Parent 1: Michael Egan
Parent 2: Catherine A E Egan
Birth Date: 07 Jul 1886
and
Name: Alice E Eagan
Parent 1: Patrick J Eagan
Parent 2: Mary E Eagan
Birth Date: 03 Jan 1903
In 1885 there is a Michael Egan at 235 Atwells Ave,
Prov, a laborer
and a Michael Egan, moulder boarding at 27 West River
Ave, Prov.
This is an ancestry database made up mostly of births
in Prov,
but it does contain other areas, and it is not
complete.
I can't find the first Alice in the 1900 census, but
in
1910, there is
an Alice Egan, age 23, living as a boarder with an
Agnes Trainor
at 34 Shore or Shove St in Providence. She is single,
b RI, father
born Ireland-English, mother b. RI. She is a packer
in
a rubber
factory.
I don't find this Alice in 1920.
***************************************
In 1910, the second Alice is 7, living with her
parents
and brother &
sister
John & Catherine, Patricks father Michael, and sister
Alice. They are
at 86 Stockton St. Providence. Patrick is an operator
in a screw
factory.
I don't find these people in 1920 either.
I don't find Leonard McPhail in RI at all, but the
city
directories I
can
access are not consecutive years. City directories for
Providence
do exist for many years, so if you have any idea when
Leonard
might have been here maybe you can find some
directories on
film that you could borrow. I don't know if the
Family
History Libary
has them.
