Re: McQuaid Tombstones Lake Co IL

That's my guy.Where did you get your information about James' birth?My aunt, daughter of the Arthur child, has been to Ireland twice and hasn't confirmed any connection to James yet.

In 1993 I took a picture of James' tombstone in Ohio, the dates are 1847 - 1938, although I know there have been many mistakes made on tombstones.Do you have any information on siblings of James or maybe his parents?

I have all the lines from all the children of James and Honora.I also have the ship list from 1872 showing Honora's trip to Boston from Ireland. (She was somehow connected to John L. Sullivan, the heavyweight boxing champion of the world.) I will work on getting my scanner up and running so I can email you some pictures.The best one is the 3rd birthday of my grandfather, John J McQuade, in Toledo, Ohio.The picture shows all of his brothers and sisters eating watermellon, Sept 1900.

Great to hear someone knows about my James.
