Life

John Gorman appears in our family tree as John O'Gorman, reportedly born in 1858 and dead in 1942. The tree names Mary Condon as his wife and Bridget, Michael Charles, Joseph Patrick, and John as their children.

The underlying material preserves the terse notation "spouses: [\"Mary Condon\"]" but provides no original record for the marriage, the children, or either year. A Canadian census transcription for a John and Mary Gorman reads "Gorman John. Head. 30 | Gorman Mary. Wife. 32," but this archive does not establish that they were this couple. The place attached elsewhere in the tree, "Ross Twp.," has not been identified. No record currently connects this family with Andrew John Leahey's New Jersey ancestry.

How we know this: These details are recorded here without supporting documents; the possible census household has not been tied to the family. [1]

Historical context

These background articles explain the places, work, and events in this entry.

What we still don't know

  • Which place was meant by “Ross Twp.”?
  • Can an original marriage or child's record identify John Gorman and Mary Condon as a couple?
  • Are the reported 1858 and 1942 dates correct?
  • Identify what “Ross Twp.” means; search Ontario civil registrations and Renfrew County parish/cemetery records if it means Ross Township, Renfrew County. Obtain an original record tying John and Mary to at least one named child before merging the duplicate entries. No record found connects this couple to Andrew John Leahey's New Jersey ancestry.
