Sally, Thank you for helping! I found the 1900 Census for Michael and Bridget Callaghan.
Here it is:
1900 Census, Clinton, Monogalia County, West Virginia:
Callaghan, Michael, head, b.Mar. 1872, age 28, married 8 yrs., born in Pa, both parents
born in Ireland, occupation - day laborer
Bridget, wife, b. Feb.1875, age 25, married 8 yrs., bore 4 children, 3 still living, born
in Pa, both parents born in Ireland
Nellie, daughter, b. Apr. 1893, age 7
Vincent, son, b.Mar. 1895, age 5
William, son, b. Dec. 1898, age 1
All children in this census were born in Pa.
Unfortunately this creates a little more confusion. Michael states both his parents were
born in Ireland.
So, is this Bernard's son? Or does our Michael have a completely different set of
parents then what has been given us? The questions keep coming.
Thanks again.
Debra
