Rome Sentinel December 18, 1907
Florence - At 9 o’clock on Sunday evening, Catherine, aged 73, widow of Michael 
Fitzgerald, died at her home here, after an illness of two months with 
rheumatism. She was born in County Limerick, Ireland and with her sister came 
to America to Rochester when 15 years of age. Nov. 20, 1858, she married 
Michael Fitzgerald who died Oct. 17, 1894, and came to Florence, and settled on 
a farm then a wilderness which is now one of the best in town. She was the 
mother of eight children, seven of whom are living, Thomas, Mary, Joseph, and 
Mrs. Frank Riley of FLorence, Mrs. William Mahoney of Denver, Colo., Mrs. Earl 
Crossman and Mrs. Charles Smith of Syracuse, to whom is extended the sincere 
sympathy of a large circle of friends. The funeral was held at St. Mary’s 
Church this morning at 10 o’clock.
