PATRICK SULLIVAN
Originally published in 1900 |
|
PATRICK SULLIVAN, Chief of Police and Township Committeeman of
North Bergen, Hudson County, is the son of John Sullivan and Ann Murphy and a grandson of Timothy and Mary (O'Connell) Sullivan and Patrick
Murphy, and was born in Ireland on the 17th of March, 1850. Receiving
his preliminary education in the public schools of his native country, he
came to the United States in 1868 and finished his studies in New York
City, where he was afterward a member of the police force for about five
years, and where he was subsequently engaged in the liquor business.
On July 12, 1885, Mr. Sullivan removed to North Bergen, N. J., and opened a hotel near the Guttenberg racetrack, which he still conducts, having achieved that success which industry and faithful attention to business invariably wins. As a Democrat he has been for many years a trusted party leader, and in various capacities has served his town and county with honor and satisfaction. He has been Township Committeeman since the spring of 1898, is now also Chief of Police for North Bergen, and was a member of the Hudson County Grand Jury in 1893 and 1899. Mr. Sullivan is highly respected, and enjoys the confidence and esteem of the entire community. He was married, in September, 1886, to Miss Ellen Ryan, daughter of Michael Ryan, of Ireland, and has one son, Michael.
