I am looking for information about a family that lived in Cook Co from about 1910 to 1940. The parents, Jerry & Catherine Reedy died in 1932 and 1937 respectively in Chicago. They had 7 children John Thomas 1903 to 1942, William James, 1904 to 1974, Bridget THERESA 1905 to 1938?, Robert Patrick 1907 to 1984,Jerome Vincent 1911 to 1935, Joseph Francis 1914 to 1960, and Rosemary Theresa 1918 to 1993. According to family history this family contracted TB when the children were young from a sick relative. At least 3 died from complication of the disease. The only one of the children that I can't find is Theresa. According to family history she died in 1938 from TB. She was single. I can't find her in Illinois. If someone had TB at that time would they go to a sanitarium??? Are there any in WI near Chicago???? I don't know where else to look Bonni in MN Any Society that would give up liberty for a little security, will deserve neither and lose both. Benjamin Franklin 1759
