  1. Billy Conn  (William David Conn) was born on October 8, 1917 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

    Maybe someone with a US subsciption to Ancestry will be able to help you?

    -----------------------------------

    His Parents were Billy Conn Sr., a working class labourer who dabbled in the bootlegging business (it was the era of Prohibition in America) and Maggie McFarland, a sweet woman who emigrated to Pittsburgh from County Cork, Ireland as a young girl.


  2. Could the name Fred maybe is supposed to be Frank?  The below 1930 census record from Pittsburg PA shows him with his parents and siblings.  If there was a Fred, he was born after 1930.  Can't see 1940 census records until 2012.
