Elenor Elise Harris

Elenor married James Gillespie Cromer 18 Jun 1913, Boston, Suffolk Co., MA. James was born Abt 1890, Inez, NE. [Group Sheet]

Samuel married Abby L. Munday 26 May 1885, Boston, Suffolk Co., MA. Abby (daughter of William Munday and Eliza H. Arnold) was born 18 Oct 1850, Fall River, MA. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Her name is spelled Abbie in some records.

Notes:

In the 1830 census, William Munday is listed at Troy (Fall River), MA. The household consists of 2 free white males 15-19, 1 free white male 20-29, and 1 free white female 20-29. I suppose this includes William and his wife, but who are the others?

In the 1840 census, William Munday and wife appear to be at Fall River, MA. Also listed is George Munday.

In 1850 and 1860, William & Eliza are in Fall River, MA. Other individuals with them in 1850 are Mary Durfee, Thomas M. Durfee, and Levica Miller. In 1860 they have a daughter Abby L, age 9; Mary Durfee is still with them, but the age is off.

In the 1865 Massachusetts State Census, the family is still at Fall River: William Munday 58 RI, Eliza H. Munday 53 RI, Augustin Munday 19 South America, Abby Munday 14 MA, Mary Durfee 50, and Jane Farrell 30 Ireland.

In 1870 William, Eliza, and their daughter (Alice?) are in Boston. Mary Durfee is still with them -- age 54.

According to William's death record at Boston (it is also registered in Fall River), he was born in Wickford; no parents are named. He died at age 76 y 7 m. Based on location and census records, I have made an assumption that William is a son of Nathaniel Munday, who is in the 1820 census at NK with two sons.

I believe Mary Durfee is ister to Eliza.

William married Eliza H. Arnold 19 Oct 1829, Fall River, Bristol Co., MA. Eliza (daughter of John Arnold and Abbie Unknown) was born 20 Jan 1809, Providence, RI; died 20 Nov 1880, Boston, MA. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

According to the death record, Eliza H. (Arnold) Munday died at age 71 y 10 m. Cause of death was apoplexy 1 hr; location/residence 519 Columbus Ave.

Notes:

In the 1810 census, Nathaniel is listed as a head of household in North Kingstown, RI.

In the 1820 census, Nathaniel is listed again as a head of household in North Kingstown, RI. The household consists of three free white males -- one age 16-18, one age 16-25, and one age 45+ (who I assume is Nathaniel).

Also in the same census and same town is George Munday (age 25-44) with a wife and two children under age 10, one male and one female.

I found two references to a Nathaniel Munday of North Kingstown as follows. In an estate document for James Church, a letter of Administration was given to Nathaniel Munday, merchant, of NK, dated 7 March 1808; also Nathanial Munday of NK, yeoman, was mentioned in a deed of William Gardner of Exeter, dated 1 Aug 1812. These two documents may refer to the same individual.

He died in Wickford 2 January 1827, age 72 (Newport Mercury 6 January 1827 and lost gravestone). "Capt. Nathaniel MUNDAY died Jan 2, 1827 aged 72 years."

Nathaniel married Jane Bayly Aft Mar 1799. Jane (daughter of John Bayly) was born Abt 1773; died 3 Aug 1808, Wickford, North Kingstown, RI; was buried , Old Church Graveyard, Wickford, RI. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

In Memory of Mrs. Jane MUNDAY, wife of Nathaniel MUNDAY Esq'r & Daughter of John BAYLY Esq'r county of Tipperary, in the Kingdom of Ireland, she died at Wickford, August 3, 1808, in the 36 year of her age.
Blest shade ! if bending from thy starry sphere, The ways of mortals may deserve thy care, This mournful tribute of our love receive, A tear, a verse, is all thy friends can give. (Image of gravestone at RI Historical Cemetery Commission website)
