  • Notes 
    • Joseph Harper Sloan (b 1868, d 1938 in NJ) (Naturalized on 1 Oct 1919 in Newark, NJ) married on 20 Sep 1892 in Elizabeth, NJ. Phoebe Anna Dillon (b15 May 1868,d 26 Oct 1928). (Her parents were Redmond Dillon and Phoebe Badgley. I also have records of both these families.)

      Joseph and Phoebe lived in a house on Amboy Road, Tottenville, Staten Island, NY until 1918. I have a photo of the house, it is where my father was born in 1915. Then they moved to 134 Valleybrook Ave, Lyndhurst, NJ. My notes say he worked in Hoboken, NJ with Arthur (who I assume is his brother). Joseph and Phoebe had two children, both girls, Ethel Leah Sloan (b 4 Dec 1897 in Hoboken, NJ, d 28 Jan 1980 in Jersey City, NJ) she is my grandmother, and Hazel Elvira Sloan (b 24 Feb 1901 in NJ, d 2 Dec 1986 in NJ). Ethel Leah Sloan married Neils Emile Andersen, they had my father and divorced. Hazel Elvira Sloan married Joseph Lunn, they had no children.
