1900 Brule County Census

1910 census brule

1920 Brule County, SD

1941 Death Notice

(click to enlarge).  This series of Census records demonstrates that internet databases are incomplete.  The last record we have is 1920, although we know that both Elizabeth and Batt were living in the territory in 1930.  See Batt Ryan for one short description of his family.  Below group of census records is the 1885 records notice for Batt Ryan.

Brule County, SD 1900

Brule County, SD 1910

1920 Webster City, Ia

1930 Census So Dakota Boney

(click to enlarge).  Mary Ryan Boney's death is recorded in 1921, and it appears that she was living with a daughter in Webster City prior to her death.   See Note at bottom for listing of 1895 Census records.  See Boneys of Kimball

Dennis Ryan, as told by Census Records

1930 Houston Minnesota, Roy Ryan

1895 Allamakee

1910 Houston County

1920 Houston County, Minnesota - Leonard

1910 Allamakee - Mary

1920 Allamakee - Mary

1920 Houston County, Minnesota - Roy Ryan

(click to enlarge).  Dennis moved back to Waukon from Cushing, and later we see his death recorded in 1907.  At the time of his death, his wife and several children were living in Rolla, Missouri.  After his death, the family moved back to the Waukon area - some farming in Allamakee County and others living in nearby Houston County, Minnesota.  See Dennis Ryan for more information

Catharine Ryan O'Brien, as told by Census Records

1870 Allamakee Census - Kity Ryan

1880 Allamakee Census (Cath Ryan)

1900 Census Minneapolis

1910 Minneapolis Census

1920 Minneapolis Census

John D. Ryan, Grandson, living with Cath & Thos O'Brien

1930 Minneapolis Census

(click to enlarge).  Catharine Ryan is the only child of Ann and James Ryan that we haven't been able to track yet.  As we have seen with other family members, we believe that she married a boy "next door", so we have attached potential "suspects" found in the 1870 Allamakee Census.  Earlier information indicated that she may have lived in the Chicago area, but is possible that eventually made her way to California.

James Ryan, as told by Census Records

1880 Allamakee Iowa

(click to enlarge).  Oddly enough this is the only U.S. Census record we have of this family.  Based on obituaries and other information we have, this family lived in Kimball, South Dakota in the mid 1880s and possibly into the 1890s.    Since the 1890 Census Records are unavailable (may have been destroyed because a new census was taken in 1895), we are not positive when they left Kimball and made their way to Saskatchewan.  The Ryan family lived in this Canadian province until 1911 (see Saskatoon) .  There is also an interesting story of James Ryan running for sheriff of Allamakee County, see James Ryan.
