Widow of Thomas Connors, Jr. Daughter of John and Bridget (McGrath) Franklin. At the time of her passing, at her home at 99 Main Street, she was a cook at F. M. Burns' restaurant. Thank you to contributor Robert #48194592 for linking Julia to her mother.

Miss Julia Franklin, 21, was married to Thomas Conners, Jr., 22, a chairmaker, on November 22, 1882 at Templeton, Massachusetts.

Census information:

1900 at 110 Nichols St. in Gardner, MA: Julia Conners, 38, (no occupation entered); son, Edward, 17, bunching cane at a chair factory; daughters, Mary, 13, Margaret, 11, and Jennie, 9; and boarders, Michael Hennessey, 28, finisher at a chair factory, Patrick Regan, 20, day hand at a chair factory, and Edmund Kelley, 17, at school. Mrs. Conners was listed as married for eighteen years but her husband was not counted in the household. Also, for some reason she was the only married woman on the page that the census taker did not list how many children she had given birth to. Julia had reportedly immigrated to the U.S.A. in 1864. Today this building on Nichols Street is the Boucher Funeral Home. Their website says it was originally built as an apartment building in 1860.

1910 at 12 Willow St. in Gardner, MA: Julia Connors, 47, boarding house keeper; daughters, Mamie, 23, and Marguerite, 21, they were both webbing inspectors at a cane shop; and boarders, Patrick Coleman, 38, laborer at a chair shop, Henry Larocque, 20, driving up chairs at a shop, and Ernest Davis, 39, chairmaker at a shop. Julia had reportedly given birth to four children who were all still living.
