Note: Mike Cady had marriage date as Nov 28, 1882, we had Nov 22, 1882 ? Mike Cady has her birth year as 1856, we had 1857. Eulalia Cemetery Company records in Coudersport show only November 1856 and death date as November 23, 1910. 1900 census says Nov 1856 Mike Cady and cemetery record transcription had death date as November 23, 1910, we had Nov 21, 1910. WFT v10t3213 shows it as Feb 03, 1910. We have not seen the actual cemetery records. Her gravestone simply says "Ellen, wife of Daniel McConeghy, 1856-1910" -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- Note that family data had the place of her birth as Lindsay, Ontario, but 1920 census for daughters Mary and Eleanor, show both parents were born in Ireland. She had been dead for 10 years by 1920, so perhaps it was simply a family memory error, or could have been an enumeration error. 1900 census has correct birthplaces. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1900 Census, Coudersport Borough, Second Ward, Eulalia Township, Potter County, Pennsylvania, ED #105, page #9, dwelling #182, family #187, genealogy.com image #50 of 91, enumerated June 6, 1900. Dan McConneghy(sic), head, age 46, born May 1854 in Ireland, both parents born in Ireland, married 18 years, immigrated 1851, in US for 49 years, naturalized citizen, occ: Passenger Conductor - RR, orned his house free of mortgage Elenar(sic), wife, age 43, born Nov 1856 in Canada (Eng.), both parents born in Ireland, married 18 years, had 8 children, 7 living Robert, son, age 16, born Nov 1883 in PA, at school Mary, daughter, age 15, born Nov 1884 in PA, at school Tillie, daughter, age 14, born April 1886 in PA, at school Fannie, daughter, age 9, born June 1890 in PA, at school Dan, son, age 11, born July 1889* in PA, at school John, son, age 7, born June 1892 in PA, at school Elenar(sic), daughter, age 6, born Sept 1893 in PA, at school Note : This is a clue that Ellen Keating's name may actually have been Eleanor Keating rather than Ellen, both she and her daughter are recorded here in the misspelling "Elenar or Elenor" although she is not listed that way anywhere later that we have found. Dan Jr was listed out of order he should have come before Fannie. *Dan's birthyear is shown as 1889 and his age as 11, but he was born in July so he wouln't have been 11 for another month, but we have his birthyear from other sources as 1888 so 11 would have been correct. Matilde was called Tillie for short just as Frances was called Fannie, and both Daniels are recorded as Dan. This enumerator obviously did not insist on formality when it came to names :-) The child who was not living was Eleanor's twin, James who had died at 5 months -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- 1910 US Census, ED #111, Ward 2, Coudersport, Eulalia Township, Potter County, Pennsylvania, dwelling #, family # , sheet 10-A, image 19 of 34, enumerated April 25, 1910. address : 107 Erie (?) Street Daniel McConeghy, head, age 53, married for 27 years, born in Ireland-Irish, parents born in Ireland-Irish, occ: Conductor on Railroad, owned his home Ellen, wife, age 52, married for 27 years, had 8 children, 7 living, born in Kansas(sic), parents born in Ireland, occ: none Mary, daughter, age 25, born in PA, father born in Ireland, mother born in Kansas(sic), occ: none John, son, age 17, born in PA, father born in Ireland, mother born in Kansas(sic), occ: none Ellenor(sic), daughter, age 16, born in PA, father born in Ireland, mother born in Kansas(sic), occ: none Matilda, mother, age 86, widow, had 7 children, 6 living, born in Ireland-Irish, occ: none Note: Kansas !! birthplaces are bogus. This was just an enumeration error - The enumerator may have misheard or miswrote Canada as Kansas. He had originally written Ireland for the mother in son John's record, and then crossed that out and changed it to Kansas. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------------------------
