Nicholas McCabe
Son of John and
Margaret (nee Murphy) McCabe

Nicholas McCabe, son of John and Margaret (nee Murphy) McCabe, was baptized Dec. 29, 1854, in St. Bridget's Catholic church in Dunleer, Co. Louth, Ireland. Nicholas lived in the Dunleer area of Co. Louth, with his parents and siblings, until approximately 1874, when he emigrated from Ireland to the United States. The 1910 US Federal census form says Nicholas McCabe arrived in the United States sometime during the year of 1881. I am not sure of why there is such a large difference between the information on the census record, versus the information in the Dr. Nicholas McCabe biography which I obtained a copy of on my first trip to North Platte, NE.

Dr. Nicholas first lived in the western part of the state of New York, after arriving in the U.S. He apparently was living in the town of Batavia for some time He attended medical school at, what was then known as, the University of Buffalo. Dr. Nicholas graduated Tuesday, Feb. 23, 1886. A brief notice appeared in the Wednesday, Feb. 24, 1886 edition of the Batavia Daily newspaper. I have obtained a copy of the graduation article that appeared in the Batavia Daily. To view a copy of that article, click here.

Nicholas McCabe also became a U.S. citizen while living in western New York. Nicholas first formally declared his citizenship intention in February of 1884.

After completing medical school, and after obtaining his U.S. citizenship, Dr. Nicholas moved to the state of Nebraska. Dr. Nicholas eventually settled in the town of North Platte, NE.

Dr. Nicholas McCabe married a woman named Mary/Molly O'Conner, a daughter of Thomas and Ann O'Conner of Omaha, NE.
