: Martin O'Connor married a Margaret Muldowney or Mullowney. They never left Ireland. Martin was supposed to have been killed, but I have no idea if this is true or not. Their sons left for America first and then their daughters left and eventually made it up to Illinois via New Orleans and the MIssissippi River to their brothers. I have never found port of entry papers for anyone! I did find on the 1900 Federal Census, that Winnifred O'Connor Stack stated that she came to the U.S in 1852. : Martin and Margaret produced these children that I know of: : 1) Patrick O'Connor who wed Mary Kelly 12 Sept 1858 Peoria, Peoria Co, Illinois : Patrick and Mary's children were: : Martin : Thomas : Margaret : John Henry : 2) John O'Connor married one Margareth Hayes : Their children were: : Thomas : John : Margaret : Bridget : Martin : 3) Winnifred O'Connor married John Stack 25 Nov 1855 Peoria, Peoria Co, Illinois : Their children were: : Mary Stack : Margaret Stack : James Thomas Stack : Anna E.
