Sympathy Saturday – John Bittles

John Bittles is my 3rd great-granduncle. He immigrated from Ireland with his family and his brother’s family aboard the “City of Mobile” in July of 1857. The family resided in Lemont, Illinois where he worked as a laborer. He is buried in Brooks Cemetery in Goodings Grove, Illinois.

Welcome to the Geneabloggers family. Hope you find the association fruitful; I sure do. I have found it most stimulating, especially some of the Daily Themes.
May you keep sharing your ancestor stories!
