• Notes

  Birth: In the 1870 and 1880 Census' he lists his birth place as Ireland. In the 1900, he lists his birth place as Maryland which is how it appears on his death certificate. However, in the 1860 Census, his parents listed his birth place as Maryland. I can only conclude that after 1880, he discovered that he was born in Maryland rather than in Ireland.
