Family History of Alcoholism?

[edit]

Not sure about the text in the first paragraph about John's siblings and alcoholism: of his siblings, both sisters died in infancy, as did his eldest brother; three were totally wasted by alcoholism with a further two (Michael and Edward) having severe alcohol problems as well

I am deleting until someone can provide a reference. Further, I don't think that totally wasted is a good description of what happened to these three brothers.

Personal finances

[edit]

The article mentions "business interests" but doesn't explain what they are. Did his father own a business? Did he start one after he dropped out of medical school? I would expect it would take some amount of wealth to be able to afford to run for mayor of Boston; if it did not come from a business, where did it come from or how did he manage this feat? -- Beland (talk) 18:58, 7 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
