He was 55 years old, born in County Cavan Ireland, and came to this country when a child with his parents.
He retired from active interest in the big contracting firm five or six years ago and has since lived quietly at his home in Oceanic, NJ.

Mr. Brady went to work at the age of 18. Five small brothers and sisters were left in his care and to support by the sudden death of both his parents. NYT Aug 8, 1907
