John Sullivan from Wisconsin
I am looking for information on the family of John Sullivan born in 1843/1844 in Cedarsburg, WI - then Washington County.His father's name according to the census was also John and he was born in Ireland.His mother's name was Julia - last name unknown also born in Ireland.
According to the 1870 Census, John was married to a woman named Margaret and had a 2 yr old child named Mary.THis child shows up in the 1880 Census living with her grandmother Julia at the age of 12.
Family rumor has it that John and his wife moved to Chicago and a fire killed his wife.Supposedly there were 2 daughters that were put into an orphanage or a convent.John disappears until he shows up to marry my g-g grandmother in Osage, Benton County Arkansas.We are trying to fill in the gaps.
If anyone has any information, I would be greatly be interested to hear from you.Thanks,Nancy :o}
