Joseph Qua and Harriet Flack (Washington County, New York)
Posted by: Jim Flack (ID *****4695) Date: January 30, 2009 at 23:47:38
  of 9

I am a FLACK researcher looking for any information on parents of either Harriet FLACK(born abt 1825 Washington Co. New York) - or parents of Joseph QUA (born abt 1826 Washington Co. New York).

The info I have so far is as follows:-
218 THE GENEALOGY OF THE ROBERTSON.
Harvey L. Qua, son of Joseph and Harriett (Flack) Qua, was born October 16, 1864.
Harvey L. Qua and Anna Coulter were married November 9, 1885.
Harvey L. and Anna (Coulter) Qua had {the following children}:-
(a) Henry J. Qua, born January 14, 1888.
(b) Lina Qua, born October 27, 1890.
(e) Fannie Qua, born October 15, 1897. (no idea if 'e' is a typo instead of 'c')

Then Census info that shows:-
CENSUS: 1850 US Federal Census - New York, Washington, Hebron, Page 22. *[29 Aug 1850]*
Dwelling 1014, Family 1084.
Joseph Qua age 24 born New York. Farmer. Real Est=$2500,

James Flack age 12 born New York.

Susan McE...wn (surname hard to read) age 13 born New York.

IN the same Initial 1850 Census - just a few pages away I find an ANDREW QUA which I am hoping is Joseph Qua's father - especially as he has an ELIZABETH FLACK staying with him (possibly Harriet Flack Qua's sister.

CENSUS: 1850 US Federal Census - New York, Washington, Hebron, Page 22. *[29 Aug 1850]*
Dwelling 1012, Family 1082.

John Qua age 22 born New York. Farmer.
Elizabeth Flack age 23 born New York. (Related to Harriet Flack ?? )
Mary Brown age 14 born New York.
Elizabeth Brown age 9 born New York.
** If Eleanor Qua above is a daughter (age 38) then Andrew was 15 when she was born - unlikely **

CENSUS: 1860 US Federal Census - New York, Washington, Hebron, Page 9. *[15 Jun 1860]*
Dwelling 68, Family 72.
Andrew Qua age 65 born New York. Farmer. Real Est=$350, Pers Est=$2000

Andrew Qua age 75 born New York. Farmer. Real Est=$2000, Pers Est=$500. Foreign Parents.
Rebecca Qua age 65 born New York.. Foreign Parents.
Hamilton Robertson age 11 born New York.

The 'QUA' Surname message board here seems a little under-used, but I am hoping that someone out there may see this and be able to help me some way.
