Lori, I have info on a boxer from Pittsburgh named Dominic McCaffrey (1863-1926). In 1885 he boxed John L. Sullivan aka 'Gentleman Jim'. He was from a large McCaffrey family located mostly in Pittsburgh's East End area from the 1850s onward. I have no Hugh McCaffrey, though.

There was a Hugh McCaffrey who was boxing in the Allegheny & Washington County areas in 1914. I think this may be my husband's "missing" grandfather.
