    Gender Male 
    Notes 
    • According to the 1850 census for Chenango, Brooome County, NY, Michael's son James was 16 years old and was born in New York, so this O'Connell family had been in America for at least 16 years, coming over about 1834 or earlier.

      In the 1860 census, James and his parents and siblings are living in Colesville, Broome County, NY with a post office address of Harpursville, Broome County, NY. He is 25 years old, both parents are 54 years old, and his sister, Mary A. is 23. No other children are listed.

      Children, Michael and Margaret were working in other people's homes in 1850.


      In the 1850 census, Michael would have been born about 1810 and Mary Ann, about 1811. In the 1860 census, it gives both of their ages of 54 years which would make their birth dates at 1806. I don't know if either are accurate.

      In the 1870 census a Michael and Mary are living in Sanford, Broome county and their ages are listed at 75 and 65. This would make Michael being born in 1795 and Mary Ann at 1805. I am not sure if this is the correct family or not.
