I am amazed at the devastation wrought on communities - no less traumatic than a hurricane or tornado. <br /><br />I played around with the 1910 census. One record stood out because of the daughters' names. You might want to look at it. Indexed on Ancestry as Rosie Chavarria, born 1908, MA. Parents Joseph and Antoaen, born in Russia. A long shot, but the best fit I found.Susan Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02009218875010743399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-675676126371494857.post-84100773392454266142011-01-16T19:25:46.245-05:002011-01-16T19:25:46.245-05:00Barbara - Thank you for your comment.

I'd love to hear about your ancestor. I hope you write about him or her someday.Cynthia Shenettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07089125778529696076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-675676126371494857.post-86926171514089541452011-01-16T18:44:44.126-05:002011-01-16T18:44:44.126-05:00Cindy, I knew I would enjoy this, and I did.

Thank you for bringing this piece of history to light.Barbara Poolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440544740334032378noreply@blogger.com
