She was born 22 FEB 1864, in Virginia, according to MI Census records and a Pension Application and more. She married Thomas Henry O'Connor 14 NOV 1881 in Bay City, Bay, MI. I do not have any proof of her parent's names, nor an exact birthplace or even county. The name Delia has come up in some anecdotal emails, but nothing solid. I am looking for something compelling to give me her parent's names and a birthplace. A birth certificate would be great... I have been in touch with some, but no 'proof' of parental names has been proven Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated.
