George's first-born son was named James as well, so it's plausible, yet I have no proof.

He was my great- grandfather and we call him the mystery man since we have no background about him. He was born in 1839 and died in 1911. He was a farmer.

He worked as a civil engineer building the canal systems around Lake Winnebego.<br />He married Catherine Sullivan of County Kerry. They had seven kids, one named Humphrey who had a son named Patrick, who stayed in the Green Bay area.Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17437122863451015567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6274766906256850262.post-3566484524659505282012-08-12T08:57:16.069-04:002012-08-12T08:57:16.069-04:00Dori,

Supposedly there were 7 brothers from Limerick.<br />James' brother Michael (if they were siblings) had a son he named Michael who was deaf, and enrolled him at the Wisconsin School for the Deaf in Delavan. Since my great-grandfather was this deaf person, he did not pass down much information. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
