Mahoney - Cain


Source: Mercury Newspaper, Crawfordsville, Montgomery County, Indiana Aug 25, 1877

Two of Ladoga's old Irish settlers died here last Friday, Cain   MAHONEY aged about 60 and Mary MAHONEY 75. The old lady had been   quite crazy for several months nad had been in the county poor   house a short time this summer. A double wake was held here   Friday night and both bodies taken to Holy Ground at   Crawfordsville for burial.

Note:  The "Holy Ground" is the Calvary Cemetery (Catholic Cemetery) north of Crawfordsville.  Mary's dates are 1809-1877 and Cain is not in the index.  There was also an Anna who died about a month before they did (whether from Ladoga do not know) - she was 15 years old
