Mr. Charles Fredrick O’Neill who [A descendent of MARY MARIE VERONICA MAGNER] originally researched this tree prior to 1984, at that time resided in Somers, Connecticut. Mr. O’Neill had sent a letter containing this tree to another Magner researcher in 1984 and I received a copy of it this past year from another Magner who had also past the information along. Mr. O’Neill was a Member of the Connecticut Society of Genealogists at the time this letter was written. I have sent mail to the former address and have tried calls to the last known phone number both with negative results. In the interest of the Magner Genealogy and the research by Mr. C. O’Neill I respectfully present this tree knowing that I have tried to contact Mr. O’Neill with no luck.
