Steve, our Thomas Fitzgibbon had two children (that we know of).It is possible that your Henry is a sibling to our John J. Fitzgibbon and Michael Fitzgibbon.I think whoever gave the obit information about Steubenville, NY was in error.The only Steubenville we know of is in Ohio, which is where our John J. Fitzgibbon was born 27 Dec 1854.From marriage records in Kewaunee Co., WI we know that a Michael Fitzgibbon, with parents listed as Thomas Fitzgibbon and Elizabeth Fitzgibbon (maiden name not listed)has "birthplace of husband" listed as Waukesha, Wisconsin.From your information, it certainly seems possible, or at the very least, an unusual set of circumstances, that your obituary describes this Fitzgibbon family as moving from Steubenville to Waukesha.We can trace our John Fitzgibbon from his birth in Steubenville, OH to Kewaunee, WI and it is possible that Michael, is his younger brother, and your Henry is an older brother.We don't have any other real proof, but the circumstancial evidence is compelling.Do you have any other information about this Henry Fitzgibbon and any possible siblings?Thanks for your posting and let me know if you think we have a connection possibility here.
