NOTE: I do not know if this is "my" James. Some things fit and others don't, age is correct, place of birth might be correct, and birthplace of mother is not as I expected. This family had a habit of reporting their birthplace as either Maine or Canada. Calais, Maine and Milltown, New Brunswick are pretty much conjoined at the US/Canada border and families could drifted back and forth over the border. I have recorded that the birthplace of James' mother as Milltown, not Scotland but.....her name was McDonald. Died: From the death certificate of James McGoldrick the cause of death, Hypertensive heart disease, paroxysmal tachycardia. Physician Terence C. Ryan (24.7a), Springfield, MA Buried: Find A Grave e-Memorial

[Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
DNA: MKM Died: Death certificate for Annie Ryan McGoldrick lists the cause of death as cholemia, due to arteriosclerosis. It gives her birthdate as January 6, 1859, which I believe to be incorrect, based upon census data. Buried: Find A Grave e-Memorial
