Patrick McConnell & wife Jane
I'm looking for Patrick and Jane McConnell.Patrick was a shoemaker in Philadelphia in the 3rd ward.He was also a volunteer firefighter.
They had a son Charles born around Nov 1855 who started out as a bookbinder and became a musician.I believe his sons also may have been musicians.
The second son was John born around Dec 1860 who was a bookbinder.He worked at the Govt. Printing Offic in DC by 1900 and also was a speculator in DC realestate on the side.
Any information about the parents' places of birth (in Ireland), their parents, when they immigrated, etc would be much appreciated.
