    Children:

    3. 13. George Louis Keough  Descendancy chart to this point was born 3 Mar 1931, Poughkeepsie, Dutchess, New York, United States; died 28 Oct 2009, Phoenix, Maricopa, Arizona, United States; was buried Abt 31 Oct 2009, Pittsford, Rutland, Vermont, United States.

  9. 10.  John Stanislaus Keough Descendancy chart to this point (1.Ellen1) was born Abt May 1881, Ferryland, Newfoundland; died 8 Jan 1882, Ferryland, Newfoundland; was buried Abt 10 Jan 1882, Holy Trinity RC Cemetery, Ferryland, Ferryland District, Newfoundland, Canada.

    Other Events:

    • Baptism: 13 May 1881, Holy Trinity RC Parish, Ferryland, Newfoundland

    Notes:

    Died:
    Births, Deaths, Marriages in Newfoundland Newspapers (1810-1890) - DEATH 8 January 1882 - John "Joseph" Kough - Lighthouse, Ferryland, Newfoundland - aged 8 yrs. 2 mos. Parents given as Philip and Ellen Kough.

    My conclusion is that this obit was very likely for John "Stanislaus" Kough whose death date was transcribed as 8 "Jun" 1882 - age 8 mos. There is no record for a John Joseph for this couple in the Holy Trinity RC Parish baptisms.
