Info provided by Mike Gallagher
The land had to be quite reasonable-when Chris Surfus did the research on her house, the land went for $500.00 back in 1872. She believes this was an 80 acre lot at the time. She has a note for a sale in 1857 ".50 per acre".

In the Maplewood St. Mary's parish report, there was a Mary Johanna Mulvihill that had died in 1893 at the age of 23.  She would have been born around 1870.

In Arcadia Twp, Carroll Co. IA, on the 1880 census, there was a James Mulvihill, age 55, which would put him in the same generation as Jon, with a wife Mary, age 33, and a child Willy, age 3.
I do not know if there is a relationship, but his son in laws brother, Richard Kenny, lived there.
