  JOHN CONDON (1839-1904) was for twenty-four years a resident of Grand Prairie

township and Ellsworth village. He was born in Ireland in 1839, and came to the

United States when a young man. His home was in Boston until 1880, when he

became a member of Bishop Ireland's colony and came to Nobles county.



  Arriving in this county, he at once purchased from the colony managers the

northwest quarter of section 29, Grand Prairie, and that was his home until his

death, which occurred in 1904. His wife was Margaret Condon, whom he married in

Boston. She was born in Ireland and died at the family home in Grand Prairie

township in 1901, aged 65 years. Mr. and Mrs. Condon were the parents of six

children, all of whom are living. They are James, Niel, George, W. J., Mary

(Mrs. Mike Hollaren) and Bridget (Mrs. C. A. Bird). The sons all make their home

on the home place; the daughters reside in Ellsworth. George Condon owns the

home quarter, James owns the northeast quarter of section 31, and W. J. owns the

southwest quarter of section 19, all in Grand Prairie.
