Catherine Halpin - Algona, Iowa 1910-1916
I am searching for my grandfather's sister.
Thomas J. Halpin, my grandfather, departed Liverpool and arrived at Ellis Island aboard the Celtic, September 4, 1910. He was accompanied by his sister Catherine, and his uncle William, a naturalized US citizen.
Both Thomas and Catherine were born in County Westmeath, my grandfather in 1889 and his sister approximately 6 years later. They were brought to the US by their uncle, William Joseph Halpin, born 1850, Fore, County Westmeath Ireland. W.J. Halpin served the Algona St. Cecelia Church as parish priest from 1898 until his death in 1916.
Catherine was purported to leave Algona upon William’s death and move to Chicago.
I would appreciate any information anyone might have.
