Source: Delmarva Obits Joseph Robinette Biden, Sr., age 86, died Monday, September 2, 2002, at the suburban Wilmington home of his oldest son, United States Senator, Joseph R. Biden, Jr. Mr. Biden was born November 13, 1915 in Baltimore, MD, the son of the late Joseph H. Biden and the former Mary Elizabeth Robinette. While he was still a boy, his family moved to Wilmington, where he attended St. Paul’s School and Wilmington High School before graduating from St. Thomas Academy in Scranton, PA, where the family was then residing. In 1941, Mr. Biden, while employed as a sales representative for Amoco Oil Company in Harrisburg, PA, married Jean Finnegan of Scranton. During World War II, Mr. Biden was an executive in Boston, MA, of a war industry that supplied "plastic hulls," a special waterproof sealant, applied to all U.S. merchant-marine ships built during the war. Following the war, he was co-owner of an airport and crop-dusting service on Long Island, New York. In 1953 he moved with his family to the Wilmington suburb of Mayfield in Claymont, DE and returned to sales as manager for several Wilmington automobile agencies. He then spent 15 years working in real estate condominium sales in New Castle County and in Rehoboth Beach for the Patterson-Schwartz agency. Throughout his working life and during his retirement, Mr. Biden shared with his wife, his three sons and daughter, his ten grandchildren and his three great grandchildren a strong orientation to family life and personal integrity. He valued his reputation as an honorable man and as a family man, and with his wife, he conveyed his values consistently to his children and their children. Both at home and in the business world, his word was his bond and he was proud of that. Mr. Biden is survived by his wife of 61 years, Jean Finnegan Biden; and by his oldest son, U.S. Senator Joseph R. Biden, Jr., his wife Jill Jacobs Biden and their three children, Joseph R. Biden III; Ashley Blazer Biden; and R. Hunter Biden of Wilmington, his wife Kathleen and their three children, Naomi, Finnegan, and Maisy; by his daughter, Valerie Biden Owens of Kennett Square, PA, her husband John T. Owens, their daughters Valerie James Owens and Catherine Eugenia Owens and their son, Cuffe Biden Owens; and by his two younger sons, James Brian Biden of Merion Station, PA, his wife, Sara Jones Biden and their three children, James Brian Biden, Jr., Caroline Nicole Biden and Nicholas Colman Biden; and Francis W. Biden of Florida and his daughter, Alana Jaquet Biden. Friends may call from 5 - 9 p.m., Wednesday, September 4 at St. Joseph on the Brandywine Church at 10 Old Church Road in Greenville.

If anyone has any information on them, please contact me. Robert Liddell (1844-?) m Susan Baumberger, and had the following children: William (1866-?), Emiline (1871-?), Robert 1872-?), John (1876-?), Frank (1877-?), and my grandfather George Franklin Liddell (1880-1930). George had married Katie Helmling. As far as I know, my relatives are all deceasd. Robert's(1844-?) father was born in England, but my understanding is that the family originally came from Scotland. I need my UK relatives names, etc. Also if you have any information on the lives of any of these Liddell's, I would appreciate the information. Except for Susan, all listed were born in Baltimore, MD. Thank-you-Trish Riley John LITTLE (Liddell or Ledell) was born Abt 1809 in England, and died in Baltimore, MD. He may have been the son of William and Mary Little of Lehigh, Essex, England. He married Emiline "Emily" WOODEN. She was born Abt 1812 in MD. I believe that John and Emily, along with Thomas and William died before 1860. The 1860 Census shows Robert Theodore Liddell living with his sister Rebecca and her husband, and John Dawson Liddell living with his sister Mary Ann and her husband. Children of John LIDDELL and Emiline "Emily" WOODEN are: i. Mary Ann Liddell was born 6 Dec 1833 in Baltimore, MD, and died 22 Jul 1906. ii. Thomas Liddell was born 1837 in Baltimore, MD. iii.

John Dawson Liddell Sr was born Sep 1851 in Baltimore, MD, and died 29 Jan 1927 in Baltimore, MD. John lived with his sister Mary Ann and her husband after 1850 until aft 1880. Generation No. 2 Robert Theodore LIDDELL was born 4 Jan 1844 in Baltimore, MD, and died 4 Oct 1914 in Baltimore, MD. He was the son of John Liddell and Emiline "Emily" Wooden. He married Susan E BOMBERGER. She was born 9 May 1844 in Baltimore, MD, and died 25 Jul 1924 in a Methodist Church Home for the aged in Baltimore, MD. Robert and Susan had 11 children altogether, but only 4 were living at the 1910 Census. She was the daughter of John Hamage Bomberger (born in VA) and Susan Launderslager (born in MD). Children of Robert Theodore LIDDELL and Susan E BOMBERGER are: i. William F Liddell was born Apr 1867 in Baltimore, MD, and died Aft 1930 in MD. ii. Emiline Liddell was born 1871. iii. Robert Liddell was born1872. iv. John Dawson Liddell Jr was born 1 Jul 1875 in Baltimore, MD, and died 19 Jun 1948 in Baltimore, MD. v.

He was born at Newport, this county, in 1826, and at an early age went with his father and the rest of the family to Hackettstown, N. J., where he lived until he was 18 years of age. In 1844 he came to Hazleton, where he resided ever since. When he first came to Hazleton he was employed by A. Pardee in the foundry and later on he worked for the same company as a fireman and engineer. In 1864 he met with an accident in a collision at Black Creek Junction, which crippled him so badly that he could not work for a year. Later he worked for A. Pardee & Co. in the machine shop, where he remained until 1890, when he was forced to retire on account of his injured limb. His grandfather was born in England and fought in the Revolutionary war with Washington. He is survived by one sister, residing in Gillman, Ill., also his aged wife and the following children: Gardner, of Weatherly, William, Harry, and Ellsworth, of Hazleton; George, of Fort Hancock, Sandy Hook, N. J., a private in heavy artillery; Mrs. William Purdy, of Hazleton; Mrs. Edward Bannon of Port Carbon; Mrs. Edward Blewitt, Scranton.

I'm Tom Langan (1941-), originally from Scranton PA, and have both Brogans and Blewitts in my family all from Ballina, Co. Mayo area. Here's the story: My grandfather's (James Langan b. 1875 d. 1950) mother is Barbara Brogan (c. 1832-1910). She married my ggrandfather, Patrick Langan about 1860. I don't have much about the Brogan's of Scranton, but will keep you posted as I find out. I found some census records of Barbara's family, and will dig them up for future citation. I have a lot about the Blewitts. My gggrandfather was Thomas Blewitt, a land surveyor in IR. Thomas was married to Mary Gilroy (no other info on her). Thomas had two brothers: James (no further info) and Edward (b. 1795 d. 1871 in Scranton), a land surveyor and planner in Scranton PA. These brothers were born about 1790 - 1805. There may be more siblings, but I have no further info. After Thomas died, his children moved to the Scranton area in 1850 from Belfast, IR to be near their Uncle, Edward. The children were a son, Thomas (c. 1836 - 1929 - died in Butte, MT area), and four daughters: Mary Blewitt Crowley of Olypant, PA, Celia Blewitt Gillespie of Scranton, PA, Bridgitt Blewitt Kelly of Scranton, PA (my ggrandmother ) and Julia Blewitt Reilly of Dunmore, PA. The four daughters were born about 1830 - 35). When Thomas's family arrived in NY, they were met by thier first cousin, Patrick Blewitt, son of Edward. FYI, there was a book published about this Blewitt family titled: Celia by one of her grandchildren, Joseph T. Reilley. Joe was born in 1899, and lived in NJ when I met him in the early 1990's - he was about 92 years old. Joe has since passed away. His book was copyrighted in 1987, and the copyright page cites: "Library of Congress Cataloging in Unpublished Data, Reilley, Joseph J., 1899 - CELIA, I. Title, TXu 9-643 09027, October 10, 1978." Several members of the Edward Blewitt family of Scranton have been prominent: one as a newspaper reporter for the Scranton Times, and one as a State Senator, if I remember correctly, in the 1950s. Hopefully this will help you get started. Regards, Tom Langan Source: Who's Who in Pennsylvania: A Biographical Dictionary of Contemporaries (1908) Page 77 BLEWITT, Edward Francis Civil and mining engineer and contractor; born in New Orleans, Jan. 2, 1859; son of Patrick Blewitt and Catharine (Scanlon) Blewitt. He was educated at Lafayette College, Easton, graduating as C. E. in 1879. He married in Scranton, 1879, Mary Ellen Stanton, now deceased. They had four children: Patrick Robert, Arthur, Mary, Gertrude and Catharine Geraldine, all living. For his second wife he married Anne M. Blackwell in 1891. He was city engineer of Scranton, from 1883 to 1893; chief engineer of construction for O'Boyle and Foy, of Pittston, Pa., in the drainage system and water works of Guadalajara, State of Jalisco, Mexico, costing $3,000,000, consisting of one hundred and thirty-eight miles of sewer and ninety miles of water piping. He has been occupied in mining and consulting engineering since that time. He was school controller of Scranton in 1883 and 1884, city engineer from 1883 to 1893, chief engineer of the Guadalajara (Mexico) Sewer and Water System, and State engineer of the State of Jalisco, Mexico, 1900-1901. Mr. Blewitt is State senator of the 22d District of Pennsylvania, which includes Scranton and Lackawanna County, for the term 1907-1911. He is a Democrat in politics, and a Roman Catholic in his religious faith. He is a member of Scranton Lodge of the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, besides holding membership in other fraternal organizations. Residence: 1702 Monroe Avenue, Scranton.
