General Notes: Husband - John Walsh

---

After receiving his education in the schools common to his day he learned the trade of a shoemaker, and in 1825 emigrated to America, settling in Pittsburg. He purchased a home on Fifth avenue and engaged in the boot and shoe business. He manufactured custom work and employed from four to six workmen in his shop, who were then styled journeymen. At that early a date this was considered a large boot and shoe shop.
He was a devout member of the Roman Catholic church, contributing largely of his time and means. He held membership in St. Paul's church, and when the old building was erected contributed towards its construction. He also gave liberally towards the building of the parochial school of Pittsburgh. Politically he was a stanch Democrat.
