Why is wife listed as widow in 1900, then has husband in 1910, then is a widow in 1920? Have we mixed up two families? Is it because Thomas O'Maley Ready was in the soldiers home? Soldiers Home record says he is "married, separated, divorced". Which one was it? Did they divorce then remarry? If they divorced, then that explains why the soldier's home sheet first lists the wife as next of kin then it lists the sister. Obit lists the sister, but not the wife/ex-wife. Why is his name on his death certificate his mother's family's name?

    1911-75 years = 1836 birth

    Another source says he was in the Union Navy, so maybe he is the man at the soldiers home.

    The man who died in 1911 is in the same section, tier, and lot in Calvary Cemetery as CLARA and MARY and ANNA Ready.
