Does he have the same occupation (people change)? Where does the family live? Taken together, all the information should point to possible identity.

My baby sister, Patricia Anne Walla born January 1959 was stillborn with the cord wrapped around her neck. Would she have had a birth or death certificate? I do not remember my parents having a funeral or a burial. What did people do in those days with a dead infant? Did the hospital dispose of the body if the parent's wished it so? Did the Coroner have to do his part and write a death certificate? If so, has it been long enough since her birth/death that I could write to Trenton, NJ and request a certificate?

Alice Connor married Thomas Meredith 5 June 1843. She also was born in County Louth, Ireland the daughter of James & Elizabeth (Rafferty) Connor. "She was still young when her mother died, and she came to America when a young lady, and first settled in Paterson, New Jersey, but subsequently removed to Cayuga County, New York where she met her future husband." Elizabeth Connor married William Hartley in 1857. She "was born in County Louth, Ireland, August 15, 1836" Her parents "James and Elizabeth (Rafferty) Connor, were natives of Ireland, and there spent their entire lives, dying when their daughter Elizabeth was but an infant. She came to America with her brother Patrick and first settled in Patterson, New Jersey, whence she came to MIchigan in Decmber 1855. Her brother Patrick and two sisters were the only members of the family besides herself who tried their fortunes in the New World." These are all taken from "Portrait and Biographical Album of Hillsdale County, Michigan" published in 1888. Patrick is mentioned in each of the sketches of his brothers-in-law as well as that of Solomen Yeagley (his wife's brother) but only briefly. That's all I've had to work with in trying to trace back my Connor and Rafferty lines. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

What info I have is from a History of Hillsdale County, Michigan which included biographical sketches of couty residents & in particular one of my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather, John Marvin. In it he says his wife was Bridget Connor "a native of County Louth, Ireland. She was left an orphan at an early age, and came to America with an uncle, settling in Patterson, New Jersey, whence she afterward removed to Cayuga County, New York, and from there she came west to Kendallville, Indiana." My Gr-Gr-Gr-Grandparents were married in 1854 in Indiana & moved to Hillsdale County, Michigan in 1856. Notes that I have from a "relative of a relative" says that she came to the US in 1840. Eventually all 4 Connor children moved to Hillsdale County, Michigan. I have their parents as James Connor & Elizabeth Rafferty but don't have any other information on them. That's why your posting caught my eye. The fact that there were both Rafferty's! & Connor's in Patterson, NJ seems to fit in with my family. Bridget was born in 1824, I'm not real sure about her siblings. I think I have some notes on them somewhere but can't put my fingers on them right now. I have always been frustrated in trying to trace Bridget & her siblingsd & parents back because of the lack of much to go on as well as the very common name of Connor.
