The 1900 census, Brooklyn, Ward 29, Ft Hamilton Ave in NY has the following entry: Eli A. Kellem, 29 yrs old, born Sept 1870 in NJ, Father born in NJ, mother born in SC, occupation-pipe fitter Alice F., wife, 28 yrs old, born Dec 1871 in NY, father born in Ireland, mother born in Ireland, married for 8 yrs, had 8 children with 3 living Alice F., daughter, age 6, born Oct 1893 in NY Albert J., son, age 3, born Nov 1896 in NY Ethel M., daughter, age 1, born Oct 1898 Mary E. O'Donnell, mother-in-law, age 58, born April 1842 in Ireland, father born in Ireland, mother born in Ireland, widow, had 7 children with 2 living; to the United States in 1863, in this county for 37 years. The story was that she lost 4 children on the journey over, Alice lived and James J. was born on President St. in Brooklyn. Information given on James and Mary Harrigan O'Donnell- Today's mail brought death certificates for James J. O'Donnell and his first wife, Mary Harrigan. So sad! Mary O'Donnell died on Jan 28, 1914 (five days after Leroy was born) at 4:00 p.m. at 216 Hoyt Street, a tenement in Brooklyn, Death Certificate number 2674. An autopsy was performed and the cause of death was asphyxia due to gas poisoning. Details of medical examiner's report not included. No personal information was provided or known to the county medical examiner. She was buried in a pauper's grave at the County Farm on Feb 5, 1914 by the Dept. of Public Charities. James J. O'Donnell died on Dec 8, 1931 in a taxicab en route to the hospital. Again, an autopsy had to be performed because he died unattended. Cause of death was chronic myocarditis. His occupation was listed as pipe closer. The big news is his parents were listed as Michael O'Donnell and Mary Dundeen from information provided by Mrs. Lottie O'Donnell. He lived at 265 89th Street in Brooklyn at the time of his death. He was buried on Dec 12, 1931 at St John's Cemetery. * I was always told that his father was James and am unsure what to think- Still searching. Thank you!
