While in Chicago for his training in the 1890's he stayed with his half sister Julia (Davis) Mahoney who was married to Cornelius Mahoney. I believe that his half cousins Grace Mahoney and Julia (Mahoney) Wilson and her daughter Julia Ann (Wilson) Lepesckin came to Con's funeral in 1935. This is based on a letter from Grace Mahoney to my father that has since been lost.
Note: Julia Ann (Wilson) Lepesckin was married to Dr Eugene Lepesckin. We have lost all contact with them.
