• Notes

  Marriage Record: James F Hewitt Census 1910: Frank, widow Birth record of Anna: J F Hewitt Birth record of male 1899: James F Hewitt Birth record of Mary: J F Hewitt Two young men belonging to Bay Side named GREENLAW and RICHARDSON, boarded the express train a few miles out of town with tickets for California. At the Grand Southern crossing six others got on board, also bound for the golden state. These were J.F. HEWITT and wife; Robert HEWITT and Alexander HEWITT, Robert MONAHAN and Miss ACHESON. Their destination was Eureka, California. 27 February 1890 BEACON The Weekly Blade Wednesday, January 21, 1903: LIST OF JURORS. The following are the names of citizens composing the jury list for 1903: Lake precinct F. C. HATT Jack WATKINS Chas. HILDEBRAND J. F. HEWITT Hi, I find Geo. W. Hewitt, born N.B. naturalized Humb. Co. 1898 Also J. F. Hewitt born Canada, intent to citizenship 1898 Humb. County. In passenger list I find Henry Hewitt Feb. 5,1870 on the Pelican. There are no Hewitts in my cemetery book. One more thing, I have a copy of the marriage information on Thomas Carson and Eliza Jane Parks, I got it from microfilm in St.Andrews. They were married by the same minister as Louisa Parks and Thomas Crozier Steen. No parents listed. You mentioned Hydesdale, do you mean Hydsville? Some of the Parks lived there. If Mariah did not have children there will be no descendents of hers looking for information, another dead end!
