Annie Moore Research

Census

This Annie Moore in the 1900 census was born Aug 1876, she lives in the right area, and the parents's names match. But the census says she was born in New York and the siblings do not match what is known, though they match those in Irish Birth Records. Annie is, however, living a couple blocks away with her husband and children.
