Simon in September 2011. Place of birth given as Tyrone, Ireland in 1907 passenger list entry. NAME: According to a personal communication from her grandson, Patrick Teague, Alice's name at birth in Ireland was Bridget McKenna. She changed her name to Alice when she immigrated to the United States, in order to have a better opportunity at employment (since there was still significant anti-Irish prejudice). When Alice returned to Ireland with her son (Patrick's father) years later, he was puzzled that everyone referred to her as "Bridgie" until it was explained to him that this was her real name in Ireland. IMMIGRATION: Year of immigration given as 1907 in 1910 U.S. Census. Year of immigration given as 1902 in 1920 U.S. Census. Year of immigration given as 1907 in 1930 U.S. Census. Year of immigration was actually 1907, though, in accordance with Alice's recollection to her family that she came to the United States alone at age 17. A passenger record for the Ship "Columbia", departing from Londonderry and arriving in New York on 14 October 1907 has Bridget McKenna listed on page 46, line 1. Her age is given as 17 years. Her closest relative in Ireland is given as her father Frank McKenna, from Cooel, Drumquin, County Tyrone, Ireland. Her final destination is listed as Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Her closest relative in the United States is given as her sister, Mrs. M.A. Delaney, 2620 Sloan[?] Street, Philadelphia, PA. Since Alice/Bridget's sister Mary Anne married John Delaney, this confirms the connection between this immigration record and Alice Teague.
