CALLAHAN and Elizabeth MALONE Birth Record Springfield, Hampden Co., MA for James Douglas CALLAHAN born 15 Jan 1907, parents John Henry CALLAHAN and Elizabeth Theresa MALONE [father born Merrimac, mother PA] residence 63 Knox Street Birth record at Springfield, Hampden Co., MA for Mary Veronica CALLAHAN born 26 May 1908, parents John H. CALLAHAN and Elizabeth MALONE Birth record at Springfield, Hampden Co., MA for Elizabeth Bernadette CALLAHAN born 4 Sep 1909, parents John CALLAHAN and Elizabeth MALONE, residence 563 Liberty Street; occupation: chauffeur, father born Merrimac, mother born Philadelphia PA, recorded on the 13 Sept 1909. A suggestion, as it seems that John H. CALLAHAN and Elizabeth MALONE were married in a Catholic Church [record says priest was Emile A. St Onge] it might be worth you checking the baptisms for the children ~ these might provide further family connections as godparents were often family members...... As these children were born Springfield MA you would need to check what Catholic Churches were in that area and where the records are now.
