Notice biographique
Maurice O'Connor, son of John O'Connor and Rebecca Hogan, was born in 1844 in the parish of Tignish, Prince Edward Island. Moving to Maine, Maurice served in the American Civil War from 1861-1865, after which he returned to PEI. He married Mary Ann Burke (1844-1922) on 26 November 1867 and they settled on a farm at Kildare Cape. They had eight children: Rebecca Elizabeth(1869-?); George Brighton (1872-1961); Charles Arthur (1874-?); Mary Ann (1876-?); Martina (1880-?); Cecelia (1885-?); Robert E. (1888-?); and Harriet (1889-?).
Charles was a blacksmith and George, who went by "Brighton" was a farmer. Robert eventually moved to St. Pauls Minnesota, Harriet and Mary Ann to New Bideford, Massachusetts, Charles to Lynn, Massachusetts, and Martina to Brooklyn, New York. Maurice O'Connor died in Alberton on 25 January 1929.

Historique de la conservation
Présentation du contenu
The fonds consists of diary entries, originating with Maurice O'Connor in 1876, and continued by O'Connor descendants until 1971. Early entries revolve around records of the weather, schooners entering and exiting Cascumpec harbor, fishing and farming, marriages and deaths within the community of Kildare, and trips to Alberton. Frequently mentioned are various members of the Cahill, O'Brien, and Foley families living in the area.
Many of the diary entries revolve around the life of O'Connor family members. In 1895, Maurice records that he had arrived in Alberton thirty years previously on the 14 July 1865. In 1898, he mentions his wife's fifty-fourth birthday, as well as the addresses of Charles and Mary Ann who had recently moved to the United States. It is unclear who continues to write in the journal after Maurice, possibly it was one of Maurice's daughters. Maurice's death was documented in January of 1929 by the simple statement "Pa died."
It is also unclear who of the third generation takes over the journal entries in 1940, except for a brief entry in 1948 by Cyrill O'Connor, who wrote about the principles of war.
