JOHN M. FITZPATRICK, member of the Common Council of Hoboken and one of the prominent masons and builders of Hudson County, was born in Hoboken, N. J., on the 14th of May, 1870. He is the son of Michael and Ann (Bowden) Fitzpatrick, and a grandson of John and Margaret (Hines) Fitzpatrick and John and Ellen (Hamilton) Bowden, all natives of Ireland. His father came to America in 1858 and his mother in 1859. They were married in New York City, and soon afterward settled in Hoboken, Hudson County, where they still reside.

Mr. Fitzpatrick received his education in the parochial and public schools of his native city, and at an early age began life as a clerk with Toby & Kirk, stock brokers, of New York City, with whom he remained two years. Subsequently he learned the trade of mason and builder, which he had mastered at the age of nineteen. He then formed a partnership with his father, which continued until 1894, since which time he has been engaged in business as a mason and builder on his own account. Mr. Fitzpatrick has executed with ability and satisfaction a large number of important contracts, and has established for himself a reputation which stamps him as a man of energy and enterprise.

He is a popular citizen of Hoboken, a prominent and active Democrat in politics, and respected in both social and business circles. He has served as a member of the Democratic City Committee of Hoboken and is now (1900) a member of Hoboken Common Council. His public spirit and patriotism have frequently been displayed on important occasions, and in every capacity he has faithfully and conscientiously discharged the duties committed to his care. He is a member of the Catholic Benevolent Legion, of the Knights of Columbus, of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and of the Hoboken Turn Verein.

Mr. Fitzpatrick married Miss Honore Quinn, and they have five children: Mary, Ellen, John, Anne, and Cecelia.
