Henry Donnelly, born 26 January 1856. He was baptized at St. Mary's Church, Newark, New Jersey on 20 November 1856. It is unclear why he was baptized at St. Mary's and not at St. Peter's, Belleville. The time span between birth and baptism seems a little too long for the mid-nineteenth century. Had his parents had a falling out with the pastor in Belleville? He is identified as “son of Hugh Donnelly of Bloomfield, NJ and Helena McLaughlin.” Is he the Henry Donnelly, born 1856 in NJ, who appears in the Great Register for San Francisco in 1886?
