William married Maria Agnes Healy on 24 Oct 1911 in Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts, USA. Maria (daughter of Denis C. Healy and Mary E. Murphy) was born about 1884 in Kilbrean, Killarney, County Kerry, Ireland; died in 1944 in Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts, USA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Cause of Death: Influenza
• Religion: Roman Catholic
• Research Notes: Maria does not appear in her father’s household in the 1901 Irish Census. Emigration and naturalization information given in 1920 census (arrived 1900, naturalized 1911). Name given in 1930 census as “Myra.” Keith MacNeil gives birth year of 1882. Middle initial given as “R” in 1940 census. Birth register entry of son Henry spells maiden name “Healey.” According to initial interview with Marion Campbell, Maria’s maiden name was Kett and she had sister living in Worcester area whose married surname was Healy. This is contradicted by the obituary of her son Rev. William Campbell, which gives Maria’s maiden name as Healy. A fairly comprehensive family tree from another Healy relative also confirms this. Originally found a Maria Kett in the Boston arrival lists, but I now consider this to be incorrect: (First came to the US in 1907, arriving in Boston aboard the Saxonia on 25 October after sailing from Queenstown (now Cobh) on 16 October. After visiting Ireland for some period of time, she arrived in Boston a second time on 20 September 1914 aboard the Arabic, which sailed from Queenstown on 23 September 1914.)
