I have the obituary for Mary Ann FARAGHER (spelling). It is from the Fairbury Blade May 11, 1917. It says that she was born near Castletown May 6, 1849. The following children were listed in this order, six total. "John QUINE, of Monica; Herbert FARAGHER of Ballasalla; Mrs. Katie KESSLER, Mrs. Edith KNAUER, and Mrs. Alice ANDREAS of Strawn, and Mrs. Clara STOTLER of Streator. Three sisters and two brothers also survive. They are Mrs Katherine ANKERS of Strawn; Mrs. Margaret FARAGHER of Forrest; Mrs. Eliza PYLE of Clarion, Iowa; James GORDON of Manson, Iowa, and Richard GORDON of Galt, Iowa."
The obit does not mention her brother Robert who was born 1863 and died 1890. I have a picture of tombstones for William, Margaret and Robert taken at the Strawn Cmt., Illinois.
I also have the obit for James Joseph GORDON and his wife and will share if interested.
The obit for their brother Richard Henry GORDON mentions Richard as the youngest of eight children born to William and Margaret GORDON. This must not be correct because Richard was born 1861 and Robert 1863. Richard died 1932 and James 1923.
