  • Notes 
    • According to the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, Archives and Record Center, by letter dated April 9, 2007, a "Martinum" (a Latinized form of Martin) was born February 12, 1883, and was baptized on March 4, 1883 at St. James Catholic Church, West End, Pittsburgh, Pennsyvlania. His father was Michaele Fogarty, of County Tipperary, Ireland and his mother was Maria Murphy, County Monahan (Monaghan), Ireland. The sponsors were Michael Murphy and Sara Mannion.

      Martin was killed at age 7 in an accident--according to family lore, by a horse-drawn streetcar. According to the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh, Archives and Record Center, by letter dated April 9, 2007, Martin was buried in St. Mary's Cemetery, which is located on the Southside Slopes. According to the records of Calvary Cemetery, Martin and an "Infant" Fogarty were reinterred at Calvary from St. Mary's Cemetery on Jan 10, 1891. (His father Michael had purchased the plot in Calvary on Dec 22, 1890.)

      The following story appeared in the October 18, 1890 edition of the Pittsburgh Daily Post:
