  Bridget and John Foley moved to Bristol, Connecticut and had sixteen children, six of whom died young. (per the late Ray Curran). Ray's figure is plausible since the 1910 US Census shows that 10 of John and Bridget's 14 children were still living. I also found one more daughter who was born in 1910, after this census.
