• Notes

  All the family was born in Newfoundland, Canada and moved to the USA in 1902. [according to a letter from Veronica (Whealen) Forrestall; 1964]. The 1910, 1920, and 1930 census records various different immigration years for the family members; not sure what immigrgatin years to believe. The 1910 US Census (Cambridge, MA) states John has been married 35 years. Thus 1875 is the marriage year. He married Elizabeth in Newfoundland, Canada where their children were born. Due to the the reported ages of John and wife Elizabeth on the 1910 and 1920 census they were both born about 1855.
