Cemetery Record:
Julia Deveroux (age 45) – interment 1/14/04
She’s the only one buried in her plot, which was purchased by Rev. M. H. Bruton on 15 Jan 1904.

1900 Census – Newport Twp – Lake Co, IL – Page 180A
Michael Bruton – W-M- Sept 1849 – 50 – Single – IRE-IRE-IRE – Imm.1867 – Catholic Clergyman
Julia Devereux – Boarder – W-F – Nov 1847 – 42 – Single – NY-IRE-IRE – Housekeeper

I can’t find her anywhere before this 1900 census. Can you?

I think she must be the sister of my Mary Devereaux, who was in Troy, Rensselaer County, NY in 1860, living with another family as a domestic servent. I have no clue who Mary’s parents/siblings are. But check this out….

At Mary Devereaux’s wedding to James Ryan (1860 in Troy, NY), the witnesses were a William Burke and a Hannah Devereux. And look at this census entry:

1860 Census – Troy, NY – Ward 9 – Page 112
Bartholemew Katon – 43 – Laborer – IRE
Mrs. Katon – 37 – IRE
James Grace – 40 – Switchman – IRE
Julia A. Grace – 61 – IRE
James Grace, Jr. – 19 – Laborer – NY
William Burke – 19 – Spring Maker – IRE ************
Michael Fanning – 30 – Laborer – IRE
Ann Devix – 16 – Servant – IRE *****************
Julia A. Devix – 5 – NY *****************

Do you think that Ann and Julia Devix could be Hannah and Julia Devereux???
And by the way, the bible entry is from the bible of Mary Devereaux Ryan. That Julia is the only Devereux listed.

Standard for census is that they are "off" probably more than half of the time.. and the most correct will be the earliest one. In other words.. it is hard to make a mistake re a 5 yr old. By the time you get to 40 or more, the women are frequently shaving anywhere from 5-10 yrs, of vanity.
1855 is almost absolute.. and my vote is that they are sisters, not mother/ daughter. One or both parents have most likely died in the preceding 5 yrs. The immigration is between 1844 to 1855. With a little luck, the parents and Hannah/ Ann are in NY in 1850 census.
If you have Hannah in any later census ie 1900, you may have the immigration year included.
edit
one source for you to follow up…
the diocese records in the NY area. They are absolute Catholics.
edit
on the off chance that Bartholomew/ wife are relatives, he served in the CW, and has a pension index card in 1891. fwiw.

You’ve fallen prey to a census taker with bad handwriting that was hard to transcribe. Try this from the 1900 census in Kenosha Co:

She was dead by 1 Jun 1905. I’d check with the Kenosha County Clerk’s Office about the death certificate. Wisconsin was good at keeping them at that time. If you don’t find it in Kenosha Co, then check out Milwaukee or Lake Co IL

Here’s the only death of anyone named Frederika or a variant of who died in Kenosha Co in 1905 and is on the Wisconsin Death Index. There’s a possibility this is her maiden name…not uncommon to be reported that way. It’s off 28 days from the date you have, but it’s possible. You’d have to get the Clerk’s Office to verify it.
