"James Patrick aka Seamus Larkin
(3/16/1894 - 8/3/63)
married Martha Magahran (pronounced Mag-arn') (18?? - 1/15/42) Martha
had a premonition of her death while pregnant with 4th child and started
making plans for the children in anticipation of her death. Therese had
orthopedic problems requiring surgery, so she was of special concern. Martha's
sister Mary and husband John (who were childless
themselves) agreed to take Therese and continue medical
treatment. Martha and child died during childbirth. Marie
and John stayed with father. Martha's mother moved into
the home and raised Marie and John. Seamus
was employed as a customs and excise officer in Dublin in the Republic of
Ireland and was only home episodically on weekends." -Caitlin

According to "Cecelia's family (the
Cafferty's), Cecelia
and Charles met in Belfast in 1920. Cecelia had graduated
from St. Hugh's Academy and was working as a secretary. The Cafferty's
said that Charles was making his living as an artist. They
traveled together to Liverpool in 1921 where they departed for the US.
They are both listed in the
Ellis Island web site. The ship was the R.M.S.
Carmainia and it arrived in NY on Feb 28, 1921. Charles lists Cecelia's brother
Edward Cafferty on the Ellis manifest as
the person in the US he was going to stay with." -Tracy

m.
(1930?) Marion Clare also Claire (preferred) Fosburgh
(5/21/1902 - 03/141987).
**"Dad's birth certificate gives no middle name.
Joseph must
have been a baptismal or confirmation name. And to add to the
excitement, his birth was registered in the district of Govan in the
county of Lanark. The certificate is dated July 3, 1895." -Maureen
Larkin Wright
Claire was the daughter of Dr. Daniel
Fosburgh (1834-8/7/1904) and his wife Clara Fletcher. Dan Fosburgh was a
surgeon with the 1st Vt. Cavalry during the Civil War and later practiced medicine in Vermont.
Clara was much
younger than her husband and was often taken for his daughter. Daniel
Fosburgh appears in the "Official Military
and Naval Records of Rutland, Vermont in the War of The Rebellion,
1861-1866. Men credited to town; residents since the war or buried in
cemeteries within the limits of the original town."
