| Peter DONNELLY, engineer, Port Blanchard, was born November 1, 1839, in County Kildare, Ireland, and is a son of Joseph and Eliza (Fagan) Donnelly, natives of the same place.
He was educated in Ireland, and whilst there was employed in the postal service, as a mail driver in Dublin. On January 31, 1865, he came to this country, but only stayed sixteen months, during which time he was employed as a laborer in New York; he then revisited Ireland, but did not remain there long, as he returned to the United States August 29, 1867, and settled in Port Griffith, this county, where he labored in the mines until 1871. He was then employed as fireman, and is at present an engineer in the employ of the Pennsylvania Coal Company. He was united in marriage July 13, 1870, with Bridget, daughter of Thomas and Ellen (Dagan) Devlin, natives of County Kilkenny, Ireland, and their union has been blessed with the following issue: Joseph, born November 25, 1871, Charles, born October 20, 1873, James, born November 25, 1875, Thomas, born November 8, 1878, Peter, born May 28, 1880, John born November 3, 1882, William born April 6, 1884, and Elizabeth born August 17, 1890.
