I'm looking for Patrick and Jane Hall McConnell. Witnesses at the wedding in 1854 were Bernard and Eliza Connor. Patrick was a shoemaker in Philadelphia in the 3rd ward. He was also a volunteer firefighter.

They had a son Charles born Nov 25, 1855 who started out as a bookbinder and became a musician. I believe his sons also may have been musicians. Sponsors at his baptism (St Paul's, RC, Phila.) were Patrick McGettigan and Mary McConnell.

The second son was John Patrick born Dec 14 1862 who was a bookbinder. Sponsors at his baptism (St Paul's) were James Devlin and Roseann McConnell. He worked at the Govt. Printing Offic in DC by 1900 and also was a speculator in DC real estate on the side.

Any information about the parents' places of birth (in Ireland), their parents, when they immigrated, etc would be much appreciated.
