Person:Catherine O'Brien (15)

The 1900 census of the United States lists Catherine O'Brien Dowling and her husband as living on Sarah Street, Kaukauna, Outagamie County, Wisconsin. The records states that she immigrated in 1864. The census states she was 63 years old in June 1900 and was born in July 1836. Thomas Dowling and Catherine O'Brien were married 34 years for the census records so should have been married in 1866; I presume in Iowa. I think they were married in 1865 because of the baptism record from St. Martin's RCC, Cascade, Iowa. The record recorded "Thomas Dowlan and Catherine Dowlan" as Godparents to her nephew, Thomas Reddin in 17 May 1865. The first official records for Catherine is the 1870 census taken on 2 July 1870 in the 5th. City Ward of Oskosh, in the County of Winnebago, Wisconsin. There she was living with her husband, Thomas, son, James and daughter Mary A. Dowling. The Kaukauna, Wisconsin newspaper carried the following death notice for Catherine O'Brien Dowling. (Died November 24, 1916. MRS JAMES DOWLING DIES AT HOME IN SEYMOUR Mrs. James Dowling a former resident for years on the north side, departed this life last Friday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Chas. H. Paulie at Seymour, with whom she resided. Deceased was 82 years of age. Dropsy was the cause of her demise. The remains were brought to Kaukauna Saturday and interned in the family lot at Holy Cross Cemetery besides her husband who died about thirteen years ago. Mrs. Dowling is survived by one daughter. Mrs. Paul of Seymour, and one son, James Dowling, whose present whereabouts is unknown; also seven grandchildren (There was an error in the printing of Catherine O'Brien's death notice. They called her Mrs. James Dowling and they never used her own first name. Catherine had not lived in Kaukauna, WI for a number of years)

Minnie Doolin of Corofin was older than Delia Lahiff. She was related to the Dowlings of Wisconsin. Gerry Kennedy of Corofin a grandson of Minnie.
