Interesting sidelight on the life of my g.g.g. uncle, discovered by a Quein cousin in North Carolina, 28 March 2011:
"...On Thursday, 5 January, 1860, the Bishop (viz. St. John Nepomucene Newmann) went through the routine of his morning duties, and after dinner walked down Vine Street to the Magistrate's office to arrange for the signing of a deed connected with some church property. On his way home he suddenly dropped unconscious on the steps of No. 1218 Vine Street, the residence of Mr. Quein, (viz. George Quein) who carried him into the parlor of his house, and at once sent a messenger to the Cathedral. A few moments before the arrival of a priest the Bishop expired...."
