Two years ago I looked at the land deed for John and Bridget O'Brien, where they purchased the east half of Lot 5, Block 61 in LaSalle, Illinois on 27 May 1854. It looks like the land today is located on the red pin in the Google Maps image above, on a block between 5th and 6th Streets, bounded by Hennepin and Tonti Streets. It's interesting to see this is a very close walk to St. Patrick Catholic Church, the same place where the O'Brien girls were placed with the Sisters of Charity some time before the 1860 US Census.
