His obituary in the Bordentown Register on Friday, April 22, 1904 reads as follows: "James Boylen died at his home, near Wrightstown, last Monday, from the effects of paralysis. He was a farmer, and lived in the locality in which he died for the past 35 years. He was the father of Miss Rosie Boylen, well known to the school children of this city, who were liberal patrons of her modest candy store on Crosswicks Street, near Bordentown. The funeral took place yesterday morning, the last services being held at St. Andrew's Catholic church, Jobstown. Deceased leaves three daughters." I believe James Boylen to be my g-g grandfather, but I can't be sure until I find more information on him. It would be helpful to know where he is buried. He had four daughters, one that pre-deceased him who I believe to be my great grandmother. She was Ellen Boylan (sp?) who died in 1892. She was married to Thomas Barry and had a son James Thomas Barry in December of 1890, and a daughter Mary S. Barry Hart in January 1892 in Jobstown. She died on February 17, 1892, in Jobstown, and she is buried in Sacred Heart Cemetery. James Boylen's other daughters were Mary A. Boylan, Elizabeth (Lizzie) Boylan McGonagle, Rose Boylen (Boylan). They all lived in Mansfield Township during the 1870 census. A mother for these children was not listed and that is one thing I definitely would like to know. Mary, Elizabeth, and Rose are all buried in St. Mary's in Bordentown. Please help me find any information, or steer me in the right direction to find the information that I need. I've been looking for a year now and no luck. I would appreciate any help or hints. Thank You, Ginny Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
