It is several years since I ceased doing QUALTROUGH research, however I still periodically google the name to see what I come up with.

I recently located a pdf file on SEQ Ashley, born Brooklyn New York in 1908

Here is the link to the pdf file, rather than me quoting chunks from it...

With no parentage info given in this bio, I am hoping some kind soul/s who have access to online US indexes/censuses can assist me in locating parentage/siblings and/or other info so I can finally connect Sam to his rightful place in the extensive Qualtrough family tree database.

I suspect he descends from the Irlam family of Ilion, Herkimer Co, NY with links to Ohio, but I may be wrong.... as there are a couple of Samuel Edward Irlam's descending from a Jane Qualtrough who married John Gardner Irlam at Manchester Cathedral Manchester, Lancs, England in 1850 before they moved to USA about 1851/52.

You will see that SEQ was still alive in 1970 when the article was published, so perhaps he appears in the SSDI after this...

Any and all help in locating his ancestry would be most appreciated.

Thank You in advance
Elizabeth
