Biography

Margaret and David had 7 children before immigrating to USA. Next 5 born in Bangor. Lucy and Bridget appear to stay in Canada? Bridget, 6 when family leaves, returns to Bangor to die with mum in 1904. Lucy, age 10 when family immigrates, did she stay with who, why? 1900 US census Margaret list 12/12 children living. Whats up? 2017 update: 1910 Bangor, Maine census, Margaret lists 11 of 13 children living. 2 year old Edward/son is now listed and updated here on wikitree. She was over 50 when gave birth?! Edward is born same year husband David died. Also please note that new record shows that Alphonso is actually Albert! Also update to reflect.

The middle initial is unclear in the US census. T or a G. I have an Alphonso O'Connnor living as child but he only appears once. I will list him but do not have birth record. US census gives state not town so the children are listed as I know them. I have tried not to read into, or assume, in my research.
