August 25, 2014: Updating Great-Grandmother to include the correct date of her son (my Great-Uncle), Joseph Miles Sinnott, birth: 20 Sept 1887. Birthplace: Manhattan. Lists Edward Sinnott and Mary Lafferty Sinnott as parents.
Additionally have found on familysearch.org the birth listing for Martin Joseph Sinnott of 25 January 1889, also in Manhattan.
July 12, 2014: I'm updating my great-grandmother Sinnott's entry as I want to include the 1905 NYS Census record that shows her, widowed, living with her oldest son, Nicholas, then 29, at 545 West 37th Street in Manhattan. She was marked as 50 years old, from Ireland, and a US Citizen (WHERE IS THE RECORD?!) for 32 years, so since she was 18 years of age. My grandmother, Julia Sinnott, still lived there, too, at 18 years old and is listed as a bookbinder. The youngest surviving brother, Martin, is listed as 15 (so DOB 1890) and a 'Pattern Maker'. Nicholas, listed as Head of Household, was - like his Father - a 'Box Maker'. I've included the clip from the Census
below.
Continuing to search on 7/12/14 and returning to some old census records which state - in dispute of the 1905 record - that Mary was born in May, 1858 in Ireland. In 1900 Nicholas was Head of house at 156 West 32nd Street. I note that the Farrells lived in the same apartment building in both 1900 and then moved together, living at the address on West 57th Street. By 1900, age 42, my great-grandmother had given birth to 10 and only 6 survived. How sad.
