Re: Seeking access to New York 1910 census records
Alice Lane Apr 16, 2020 11:02 AM (in response to John O’Brien)Hi, I found 4 articles from 1896 to 1916 about the address at http://www.newspapers.com (you can get a free trial) to search them. Very interesting articles of the time period.
This one is from 1906, second article is from 1905, third is from 1904, fourth is from 1896

Re: Seeking access to New York 1910 census records
Alice Lane Apr 16, 2020 11:12 AM (in response to John O’Brien)You can also search on www.familysearch.com...The site is free to search but you will need to sign up.
It is a very good site with loads of information. Here is a page with New York census. None for 1910 but there is 1915 New York Census and you could try the 1910 United States Censue. You would probably need a name because I don't think you will find anything for a specific address.

Re: Seeking access to New York 1910 census records
John O’Brien Apr 18, 2020 9:50 AM (in response to John O’Brien)Hi Alice
Unfortunately we have no name of the family or person he was going to stay with but here’s what we know .
He was Martin McMahon, born 17th February 1893 in Craigbrien, County Clare, Ireland.
Martin was 19 and single, he can be found on the Titanic passenger summary.
we are lucky as we have a great deal of our family history going back a long time including his parents deaths in 1917 and 1923.
My family the O’ Farrell come from Tuamgraney, it’s in County Clare and we have another family member listed under Clare people who went down with the Leinster, this was Ireland’s worst maritime disaster, RMS Leinster was torpedoed October 10th 1918, she was a mail boat carrying 771 men, women and children.
Private John Coyne a resident of Tuamgraney , he was the husband of Bridget Coyne, who was O’ Farrell.
its great we have so much of our history with cousins still living in Ireland but Martin at just 19 going off to America for a new life, we’ve always wondered who was he going too.
hope I didn’t bore you.

Alice Lane Apr 18, 2020 4:12 PM (in response to John O’Brien)Hi John,
I don't get bored with genealogy. I love a mystery. Are you familiar with this website: https://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/community/threads/martin-mcmahon.43776/
There are a lot of people looking for info about your Martin McMahon...are you related to Ed McMahon who was Johnny Carson's sidekick.
Here is one post that I found on the aforemention webpage:
kim Shepherd
Memberjust today learned that Martin may have been coming to the USA to work for a 3xgreat uncle Oliver Collins McMahon... whose Father was Dennis McMahon whose father may have been a John McMahon of Belmont Co Ohio in 1820 Oliver Collins would have lived in Kansas USA -- we have been looking for Dennis McMahons family who his father was ect... could Martin REALLY have been a cousin??!! if so WOW!Here is one post that I found on the aforemention webpage:

John O’Brien Apr 20, 2020 9:03 AM (in response to John O’Brien)Hi Alice
Apparently my reply yesterday did not reach you so here we go , I took everything you told me and went to the Titanic link where I posted lots of details about Martin, please let me know what you think.
I saw my sister Irene and brother in law Gregor Anderson had already posted, I chat to Irene daily and she and my sister Colleen have tons of family history.
You have been a star with helping us out so once again many thanks.John

Alice Lane Apr 20, 2020 3:23 PM (in response to John O’Brien)John,
You are welcome
The Titanic incident was a devastating experience for all connected. Even today some, like your family, are still feeling the loss.
It is unfortunate that he changed ships, too bad you can't go back in time, like they do in the movies, and tell him not to do that.
Good Luck in your quest

http://www.donslist.net/PGHLookups/cgi-bin/HandOff-1_0.cgi?NYC1910+NYC1910+0001SP ..
Scroll down to New York, Manhattan Bronx
I chose the year 1910. Click on that
at top left
scroll down to page 0976 and you will see McMahon.
There is a second page with McMahon 0977
Hope this works.

Now I also have the 1910 census for the address so searching that today, Martin was heading there 1912 so maybe I won’t find any McMahon but be interesting to see.

1 person found this helpfulDear Mr. O’Brien,
Thank you for posting your request on History Hub!
We used Google Maps and determined that 415 West 53rd Street in the Borough of Manhattan, New York City, New York is on a block bound by West 53rd Street to the south, West 54th Street to the north, 10th Avenue, to the west and 9th Avenue to the east.
We entered this information into the Unified Census ED Finder using the guidance on New York Public Library’s Genealogy Tips: Searching the Census by Address and determined that during the 1910 Census, this city block constituted enumeration district 1337.
We searched the National Archives Catalog and located the Population Schedules for the 1910 Census in the Records of the Bureau of the Census (Record Group 29) that includes the listing for 415 West 53rd Street on sheets 4A through 4B for New York, New York City, Manhattan Ward 22, District 1337. This schedule has been microfilmed as National Archives Microfilm Publication T624, Reel 1046. Scans of this reel have been posted online by The Internet Archive, a private non-profit unaffiliated with the National Archives.See 13th census, 1910 [microform] : population : New York (State) for a link directly to the pages showing this address.
See NARA’s Census Records web page for more information about using census records. You also may wish to review the New York Public Library’s page Researching New York City Neighborhoods.
We hope this information is helpful. Best of luck with your family research!
