They had three sons Luigi 1911, died in the USA, Marino born in 1915, died in 1972 USA and Enrico born in 1918 and died in Preghena in 2000.
Paolo is one of 10 brothers, born from Enrico and TheodoraErnesta (born 1924 Cis, Trento, died in 1998). His siblings are the following: Adele 1947, Alberto, 1948, Emma 1952, Luigi 1953, Rinaldo 1955, Lina 1958, Maria Pia 1959, Anna 1961, Pio 1962 and Paolo 1963.

Dear Grace, I am Anthony`s grandaughter .I just started working on the history so here`s what I have. I have a picture of the 8 brothers when your grandfather came to visit in the 50`s. I was suprised to learn there were also 4 sisters whom I`m having a hard time finding out about.There`s a daughter left from Paul who is 91 so I got most of my info. from her.I`m kicking myself I didn`t ask my mother more when she was alive. So Antoine b. 1847 in Prussia and Agustina b.1851 in Prussia. They came over in 1875 or 1876. received a free grant of 200 acres in Hagerty Twsp. In 1875. Antoine travels to Eganville Ontario with brothers Paul and Albert as witnesses to register his location and has cleared 12 acres.His brother-in-law John Palubicki registers his 200 acres next door on mar. 10 1877. They had 12 children 4 girls 8 boys . In order of age they are BARNEY b. Prussia 1869 d. 1956-----m. Joanna Blank in Brudenell on June 20 1892. AGATHA b.Prussia 1872 m. Thomas Yandernoll in Wilno on Feb.10 1890.JOSEPH b. Hagerty Twsp 1874 m. Elizabetha Flis or Fleece on Feb 14 1897. JOHN b. 1875 m.Anna Rekowska on Jan.21 1901. MARYANNA b.1878 m.Felix Flis on July 16 1894.FRANCIS b.1879???. HELENE b.may 10 1881 m.Theophile Lazynski on july 5 1898. MAGDALENA b.July 25 1883 m.Rory mask onJuly 13 1903. THOMAS mb. dec. 7 1884 m.Frances Prince on Sept. 20 1909. VINCENT b.Mar. 25 1886m. Anna Palubicki in 1912 in Minnesota. ANTHONY b.Mar. 4 1888 m. 1ST wife Julia Peplinski on July 21 1911 in Killaloe ,Julia died in childbirth in 1933 leaving 9 living children. In 1935 he married Anna Rouble and had 3 children. PAUL A. b.JAN.19 1890 m. Anna Peplinski i sister of Julia in 1915. So I hope this gives you something to worr on and if any of the other decendents have any thing to offer it would be appreciated. My mother was one of Anthoney`s 9 children. Tony was the last of the 12 when he died in 1976. All the best Louise

I see this was posted quite awhile ago but I thought I'd write anyway. I know that in the early 1930's my great grandparents were looking to adopt. They lived in Gogebic County but had to go to Houghton County -- it was called Good Will Farms (that is where my grandfather was surrendered by his parents and adopted by my great grandparents)

Is it possible that you have the wrong date of death or was that an error on the part of whomever wrote Catherine's obit?

Sewer in the Cemetery Caved in on Joseph Winn Causing Death

The building of the new sewer in Riverside cemetery resulted in a terrible death Monday afternoon when caving ground fell on Joseph Winn who was excavating, causing a slow death by suffocation.

workman and before he could be taken out life was extinct.
As soon as the accident occurred assistance was sent for and the body exhumed as quickly as possible. No bones were broken and the unfortunate man had only one or two slight
scratches on his person, going to show that death resulted from suffocation.

Deceased was a well to do citizen of this city and was sixty-two years of age. He leaves two daughters in Ironwood, Mrs. Rowell and Mrs. Watters, and a daughter in the west. The funeral was held Friday.

Death of Patrick Byrne.

Patrick Byrne, father of Andy and Denny Byrne, died at the home of his son Shariff Byrne, at Bessemer last Monday
afternoon, at the advanced age of 73 years. The cause of his death was old age. The funeral occurred yesterday,the services being held at Bessemer, and the interment at Riverside cemetery in this city.

Mr. Byrne was a native of Ireland, but came to this country when a young man, first settling in Kentucky. He removed
to Ontonagon county in the early boom days of that region and was one of its earliest settlers. He came to Ironwood
when this range was first opened up and for a number of years conducted a boarding house here, until age and ill
health compelled him to give up the business. He was well known by nearly every resident of this city aud highly respected by all. Though he had lived beyond the three score and ten years usually allotted to man, his death is
none the less deplored by his many friends, and the sorrowing relatives have the sincere Sympathy of all.

These are my Great Grand parents. I am trying to find out anything I can about my ancestors. They lived in Wakefield and as far as I can tell died and are buried there. Any information would be helpful.
