Margaret, the sixth child of Bridget CONNOLLY and Thomas GRIFFIN, was born
in Widnes.
We believe she sailed from Liverpool to America on the Cunard ship
Caronia
at the age of 17 years and, according to the
Ellis Island records,
arrived on September 27th 1905.
The records for St Marie's Roman Catholic church in Widnes mention that Margaret
was married in Chicago in 1908 but we are unable to decipher her husband's
surname.
