Michel Carey(1927-1927)

Death: July 15thth, 1954 in Danville, Illinois

John Francis Carey was born on April 27th, 1869 in Delphi, Indiana to Michael Carey and Bridget Thornton.  He was the 2nd of 4 children.  In 1870, he was living in Delphi with his parents and older brother.  By 1880, his father seems to have left the family and John Francis is living with his mother, brother and two sisters.  Though I hope to find a trace of Michael, this is where I loss track of him.



Sometime between 1880 and 1905 John Francis left home.  I know from a latter census that his only completed 3rd grade and this census shows him as being at home, instead of at school.  I have found a John Carey in the 1900 Census living as a boarder in Lewis and Clark Montana and working as a laborer and smelter.  If this is him, I suspect it had something to do with the railroad.  I couple of items point to it being him, namely the birth month/year (April 1969) and birth location (Indiana).  On the other side, the parents are both listed as being from New York instead of Ireland.



He married Rosa Amelia Whipple on February 25th, 1905 in Westville, IL.  Their first child, Loretta Carey(1907-1995) was born in 1907 and Thomas M. Carey(1909-1995) was born on May 23rd, 1909.  By 1910, John Francis was living with his wife and 2 children on Clark Street in Georgetown, IL.  He is working as a Street Car Conductor and owns his house with a mortgage.  The census says he can read and write.  Their second daughter, Marjorie A Carey(1911-1971) was born on September 26th, 1911 and their second son, William Vincent Carey(1914-1996) was born on March 15th, 1914.  Margaret became Nun and changed her name to Rose Amelia.  William became a Priest.



The family moved to Danville, IL, where John Francis Carey was born on February 8th, 1916.  Mary Helen Carey was born on March 18th, 1919.  The 1920 census has the family living at 615 Douglas Ave, Danville, IL.  They own the house without a mortgage and John Francis Sr lived here until his death.   He is a conductor on the traction line.  Given information from the City Directories, this was for the Illinois Traction System.  He worked as a conductor until some point in the 1930s when he stopped working.




The 1930 census shows him still owning the house which is now worth $1500. The entire family is listed as living there as well as someone named Gaston Charles.  Gaston was 62, from France, and listed as possibly being John Francis's father.  I highly doubt this, and suspect he was just a lodger. In 1940, the family is still at the Douglas Street address.  It includes John Francis, his wife Rosa and their children, William, Mary Helen, Winifred and Joseph.  Mary Helen seems to be the only one working in the household.  She is listed as being a teacher in the public schools. John Francis Carey died on July 15th, 1954 in Danville. IL.  He is buried in Resurrection Cemetery.
