Descendants of Thomas Dailey

Generation No. 2

2. BERNARD FRANCIS² DAILEY, SR. (THOMAS¹) was born 1828 in Ireland, and died March 11, 1882 in St. Louis, MO. He married HARRIETTE LOUISE BOSTWICK 1859 in St. Louis, Missouri, daughter of ORSAMUS BOSTWICK and SARAH BARDWELL. She was born March 04, 1841 in Illinois, and died April 05, 1901 in St. Louis, MO.

Notes for BERNARD FRANCIS DAILEY, SR.:
Bernard and Thomas were the first Daileys to arrive in St. Louis. They arrived sometime before the 1850 census as they show up in that census living together in a boarding house. Bernard shows up in the 1860 city directory as a barkeeper living at 246 Biddle and living with Patrick J. Dailey. Later, between 1850 and 1860, Bridget shows up with the two younger sons. Bernard married in St. Louis and raised his family there. He is shown living at 908 N. 17th on the 1880 St. Louis City census. Bernard made a living first as a blacksmith as listed in the 1850 census and 1854 city directory, then a whitesmith, and then as a deputy sheriff of St. Louis. In the 1880 census he is listed as "Frances B. Dailey". By 1859, Bernard and his wife are living at 23 Gay Ave. in St. Louis. In the 1866 directory, he is living on 25th between Carr and Biddle and is both a blacksmith and a collector of "Dram Shop Licenses" at the city court house.

Burial: March 12, 1882, Calvery Cem. Sec 4, Lot 18, St. Louis

Notes for HARRIETTE LOUISE BOSTWICK:
1900 census shows Harriet as the head of household living with Edward (32), Francis (aka "Frank", 27) and Walter (26). The only odd thing about this is that Edward is married at this time and shows up in the same census with his family. I am positive these are the same people but why he shows up twice is a bit of a mystery. In the 1901 city directory, Harriett is listed as a "dressmaker" and living with Frank and Walter.

Notes for WALTER R. DAILEY:
In the 1901 city directory, Walter is living with his mother and brother at 1407 Spruce and is listed as a clerk at the W. Reid Oil Company. Walter is in the 1905 St. Louis city directory and listed as a porter living at 4670 Greer Ave. with his brother-in-law and sister, Rose. Walter shows up in the 1920 census as living with his brother-in-law, J. Edward Reid. Since he was 47 at this time, it can be assumed he never married. Walter is shown as being a clerk for the Rosenthal Paper Co. and living at 3042 Market avenue in 1932.

3. THOMAS J.² DAILEY (THOMAS¹) was born 1832 in New York, and died November 09, 1887 in St. Louis, MO. He married ANN M. KEATING October 24, 1859 in St. Louis, Missouri. She was born 1837 in Ireland, and died January 13, 1883 in St. Louis, MO.

Notes for THOMAS J. DAILEY:
Thomas shows up in the St. Louis City census in 1850 living in a boarding house with his brother Bernard. I found him in the 1860 census although the rest of the family. He is living with his wife Ann and a Mary Keating (ward7, pg. 150), two servants and a boarder. Thomas' occupation is city recorder. The rest of the Dailey family is shown as living together in St. Louis. I did find him in the city directory living on 16th St. with Peter. Thomas again appears in the 1880 census with a 20 year old daughter so he must have been married in 1860 although I cannot find out where. Shown living on 3114 Brantner Place in St. Louis in 1880 census. Thomas does show up in the 1854 city directory living with Bernard at 86 Franklin Ave. and he is a "carriage trimmer". There is a Thomas J. Dailey in the 1859 directory who is a justice of the peace and who shows up as a lawyer in the 1866 directory. Since Thomas is listed as a Lawyer in the 1880 census, this is the same person.

Children of THOMAS DAILEY and ANN KEATING are:

MARY A.³ DAILEY, b. 1860, Missouri; d. March 06, 1907, St. Louis, Missouri.

Notes for MARY A. DAILEY:
This death date is not proven. I found this on a list of St. Louis obituaries and need to verify it. There was also a Mary Ann Dailey who died 4/28/1904 married to a Hoffman.

ii.

ANNE LOUISE DAILEY, b. 1862, St. Louis, Mo.; d. January 19, 1920, St. Louis, Mo..

Notes for ANNE LOUISE DAILEY:
Anne never married. This is based on several facts. One is there is no known husband, second, she was buried as "Lulu" Dailey, no married name and identified as Ann Louis Dailey in her obituary.

	iii.		ADDIE BLANCHE DAILEY, b. 1864, Missouri; m. ? MURRAY, Abt. 1882; b. Abt. 1864.
	iv.		CHARLES B. DAILEY, b. 1868, Missouri; d. Bef. 1920.

Notes for CHARLES B. DAILEY:
In the 1894 St. Louis directory, I find Charles living with a Frank Dailey at 1509 Spruce. He is listed as a "driver". The estimated death date is from Anne Louise's obituary in 1920 where it stated brother was "the late Charles B. Dailey".

MARY STELLA DAILEY, b. 1874, Missouri; d. Aft. 1928; m. V. W. TREMAINE, Abt. 1894; b. Abt. 1870.

4. PETER P.² DAILEY (THOMAS¹) was born June 29, 1848 in Rome, New York, and died September 06, 1913 in St. Louis, Missouri. He married BRIDGET E. FLETCHER Abt. 1869 in St. Louis, Missouri, daughter of WILLIAM FLETCHER and MARY HOWARD. She was born August 1852 in Ireland, and died February 07, 1927 in St. Louis, MO.

Peter arrived sometime between 1850 and 1860 with his mother and older brother, John. Peter shows up in the 1860 city directory as a blacksmith living at 37N 16th St. with his brother, Thomas, who is listed as a city recorder. Peter shows up in the St. Louis city directory in 1866 as a student in the Bryant, Stratton & Carpenter's College.

Peter married in St. Louis and raised his family there. He is shown as living at 2450 N. Market in the 1880 census and employed as a Deputy Circuit Clerk for the City of St. Louis. In the 1894 city directory, Peter is shown living at 3616 Chestnut, which is now part of the St. Louis University soccer field, and his occupation is as a Deputy Sheriff at the court house. His sons, Edward and Thomas (who is shown as Joseph T.) are living with him. Edward is a clerk at J.A.Duffy. Jospeh (Thomas) is listed as an electrician. He is later shown living at 3506 Chestnut in 1900 St. Louis census and the 1900 city directory with his sons, William F. and Edward. In the 1905 St. Louis City directory he is shown as a salesman for the Lambert-Deacon-Hill Printing Company and living at 3620 W. Pine. Peter shows up as a witness on the will of Maurice Ducy on 2/20/1873 (St. Louis Will Book K).

More About BRIDGET E. FLETCHER:
Burial: February 09, 1927, Calvery Cem. Sec 4, Lot 18, St. Louis

Children of PETER DAILEY and BRIDGET FLETCHER are:

PATRICK E.³ DAILEY, b. 1870, St. Louis, Mo.; d. Bef. 1927.

Notes for PATRICK E. DAILEY:
Patrick appears in the 1880 census of Peter Dailey and then does not appear anywhere in Missouri in 1900 or later. Also, Patrick is not mentioned in his mother's obituary although all the other children are so I assume he died before she did.

ii.

THOMAS JOSEPH DAILEY, b. 1871, St. Louis, MO; d. Aft. 1927.

Notes for THOMAS JOSEPH DAILEY:
Thomas shows up in census in 1880 and then not again. However, he does show up in the 1907 city directory living with his brother and working as a clerk. Thomas is also called "Joseph" in his mother's obit. Joseph was the witness on his mother's death certificate in 1927.

iii.

EDWARD P. DAILEY, b. October 1874, St. Louis, MO; d. November 21, 1941, St. Louis, MO.

Notes for EDWARD P. DAILEY:
This person is interesting. He shows up in a 1910 census as the 34 year old son of Peter P. Dailey and Bridget and still living with them. This would have him born around 1876. However, in the 1880 census for Peter P. Dailey he does not show up and he would have been 4. He does not show up in the 1920 census. Charles shows up in the 1905 St. Louis City directory as living with his father, Peter, and he is a Deputy Marshall for the city. They were living at 3620 W. Pine. In 1906, Charles was the Asst. Secretary to the St. Louis Democratic Club. He does show up in the 1930 St. Louis City directory living with his sister, Mary, and her husband, Charles at 6159 McPherson Ave. In the 1930 directory he is listed as a Recorder of Deeds. We do have him buried in the family plot and it shows him as born in 1874. It is also believed that this Edward Dailey never married. In Edward's obit. no one is mentioned.

Notes for HOWARD P. DAILEY:
In the 1907 city directory, Howard is living with his brother Thomas at 1416 Wright.

5. BRIDGET² DAILEY (THOMAS¹) was born Abt. 1851 in Ireland. She married ? BRESNAN. He was born Bet. 1826 - 1846.

Notes for BRIDGET DAILEY:
This is a little supposition since all I have to go by is Ellen showing up in one St. Louis census, living with Peter and identified as his niece. I found a Bridget Bresnan lving as a servant, age 29, in Connecticut in the 1880 census so I am trying to piece this together.

Notes for ? BRESNAN:
Since "Breslan" is the surname of Ellen, her father would have had that surname.

Child of BRIDGET DAILEY and ? BRESNAN is:

13.

ELLEN³ BRESNAN, b. 1866, Connecticut.
