Alice Runcy O'Connor
I found an old obituary for Alice Runcy O'Connor in my Great grandmothers Bible.My Great Grandmother's name was Alice Runcy Harris Moroney (Maroney).I believe Alice Runcy O'Connor was my Great Grandmother Alice Runcy Harris Moroney's Aunt.The Obituary states the following:
O'CONNOR-- Alice O'Connor, Nee Runcy Beloved wife of the late Michael J. fond mother of Joseph, Rosalie and Vincent O'Connor, Mrs. Winifred Cannan, Mrs. Alice Wampole, Mrs. Mary Frayk, Mrs. Irene Dean and Mrs. Genevieve Struile, Sister of Mrs. Mary Sullivan.Funeral Monday, 9am from parlors, 67th street and Dorchester avenue, to St. Cyril's Church.Interment Mount Olivet.
The obit does not give a date or a city.I believe it is from a Chicago newspaper because that is where my Great Grandmother is from.I am hoping someone can help me connect these two Alices together as Aunt and Niece because I have no info on ALice Runcy Harris Moroney's father or father's family.If indeed Alice O'Connor was Alice Runcy Moroney's Aunt she might lead to info on Alice Moroney's father.
Alice Runcy Harris Moroney (My Great Grandmother) was born in 1885 in Chicago. To Sarah Jane Gray Runcy and an unknown Runcy.Alice had a brother Richard Runcy born 1881, a sister Ceceilia Runcy Albin born 1884 and a sister Rose Runcy Eckert born after 1886.
Does anyone have info on Alice Runcy O'Connor before she became an O'Connor.
Any help would be greatful.
Thanks
