Michael Reardon from County Tipperary, Ireland was married in Boston, Massachustees in August of 1850.  Michael (B abt 1820 - D 1895) and his wife Anna Hayden (B abt 1830 - D 1908) lived in Northampton, Massachusetts where their first two children Richard (B 1852 - D 1922) and Thomas were born.  According to the Boston Archdiocese marriage information, Richard was Michael's father's first name and  Thomas was Anna's father's first name.  The family settled in Troy, N.Y. in 1853.  Presumably, they moved to Troy to join James Reardon, (B abt 1827 - D 186? as an Illinois volunteer in the Union Army)  a relative, possibly Michael's brother, who resided there.  In 1854, their son James was born in Troy, N.Y.  In 1858, their son William was born in Troy, N.Y.  In 1866, their daughter Julia was born in Troy, N.Y.  Based on these dates of birth, it appears that there may have been other children who did not survive.
