Sad news about Gannon. I don't post often, but I've enjoyed reading his posts through the years. :[[

Family Search has the 1940 Census. Seeking Michigan has updated the online death records, you can now view certificates up to 1939, and records from 1940-1952 are indexed. Finally, if you haven't...

So very sorry, heartfelt condolences to her loved ones. RIP Sumas!

I'm so sorry about Django, thoughts and prayers and to his friends and family.

I guess anything is possible, but I can't imagine where she could have been, she's not on her Uncle's census record either and she was only 11 years old. I think in my case it might be more of a...

I have a similar situation! My Grandmother would have been 11 years old. Her mother and grandparents are all listed, but my Grandma is missing. The funny thing is that it lists my GG Grandmother on...

Thanks for the heads up Courtney. An even bigger thanks for indexing the census!

Unfortunately, you have to scroll through the different images until you find the street you're looking for.

If you know the address you can use this tool, you'll have to search through multiple pages, but I was browsing the Detroit census records this morning. Click on the link for the ED and it will open...

Very sad for the families. The quote from a related article makes me think there is definitely more to the story than random violence. I'm not blaming the victims, but if I was investigating I would...

Thanks DtCtyGrl! Turns out I have a Great Great Uncle there. :)

PS - That is the first index I've seen where they list a cause of death.

Hi you guys,

Mt. Elliott Cemetery Association now has a searchable index for burials. It's not the most complete list I've seen, but I managed to find a lot of information on my Ancestors.

It seemed like everytime I tried to research anything about Detroit or the metro area, this site always had the best information. After about a year of lurking, I finally signed up for a user name...

Too cute! Congrats!!

Thanks for sharing your story Qweek.

Your post always crack me up. :)

Stram had border patrol in his pockets too, remember? lol.

Himelhoch's is now closed, but it was started by brothers who immigrated from Sassmacken, Russia, now part of modern day Latvia.

Love Grobbel's corned beef! Thankfully Sam's Club carries it so I can get it down here in FL.

Interesting question. In my "opinion" [[and we all know what they say about those, lol) There is a big difference between going to work for a speakeasy - or even a brothel, and robbing a nun at gun...

American Coney Island and Lafayette Coney Island were started by brothers from Greece. Wigley's and Grobbel's were also started by immigrants.

Would 5.43 million be better? Because thats what the stock would have been worth at the low of $1.43 per share. Oops...my mistake, forgot about his $1.00 salary.

Further, $23 MILLION was withheld...

Yep, most likely a huge cliff hanger with no idea what happens. Sad too, because the show really has a lot of potential. Lets hope Michael Imperioli still has some pull with HBO from his Soprano...

I'd really like to see this show get picked up for next season but I don't think its going to happen.

Lot of talk here about the Tampa/Orlando rail, so let me just say this. By the time I get in my car, drive to the train station, pay for parking, pay my train ticket, wait for the train, get to...
