By way of introduction I'm researching the families of John Hurley & Mary Donohue, Mary's mother, Mary Spillane and Helen Josephine Hurley and her husband Philip Sheridan Knauer. John Hurley, b. 15 July 1830, Bantry, County Cork, Ireland; d. Aug 1915, Providence, RI, m. 30 Jul, 1856, St. Patrick's Church, Providence, RI Mary Donohue, b.16 Sept 1838, Glegariff, County Cork, Ireland, d.14 Dec 1916, Manning St., Providence, RI, John and Mary had 15 children, 13 of which survived. One of the thirteen surviving children was Helen Josephine Hurley, b.3 Sept, 1879, Gano St., Providence RI, d. 1971, Lloyd Ave., Providence RI, m. 8 Jan 1908, St. Joseph's, Providence, RI, Philip Sheridan Knauer, b.3 Aug 1870, Warwick, Chester County, PA, d. 7 May, 1952. Mary Donohue (Donahue) Spillane b. 1805, County Cork, Ireland, d. 1877, Providence, RI. I am looking for information for the following: John Hurley's stone reads U.S.N. 1853-4, 1864-5/Bucklin Post No. 20 G.A.R. And, #93 is stamped into the base of the stone. Does anyone know what the # stamped into the base of the stone may represent and, secondly, does anyone have information about the Bucklin Post No. 20 G.A.R. or a suggestion where I might find information about the post? Thanks, Pat Stano-Carpenter
