CHILDREN OF JULIA WALSH ALGOE

The older people in the Fecht family referred to the half-sister of Elizabeth Walsh Fecht and Hannah Walsh as Aunt Julia Algoe. She and her family lived in Saint Louis, Missouri. Julia's family dies out after two generations. The Algoe name is important for Walsh family research since it may appear in church records or census data near the names of Walsh, Kelleher, Finn, Hyde, Tudor etc.
Left is Genevieve Algoe who became a Roman Catholic nun, Sister Catherine Marie.

Julia Walsh was the half sister of Elizabeth Ann Walsh Fecht. She married James Algoe. Their daughter was Genevieve Algoe who became a Catholic nun. She took the name Sister Catherine Marie and remained a nun all her life.
Genevieve had family records but destroyed them, since her "real family" was her religious community.
