JOHN TIBEY, is a contractor of stone work and owner of a stone quarry of Dubuque.He is numbered among the native sons of this city, for his birth here occurred on the 3d of May, 1862. The family is of Irish lineage. The father of our subject, Patrick Tibey, was a native of Ireland, born in Limeriek, and in 1850 he sailed for the United States. On landing in this country he at once came to Dubuque and embarked in business as a stone mason. He was united in marriage with Mary Cavanaugh, who died in Dubuque in 1887.

In recording the life of John Tibey we present to our readers the history of one who is both widely and favorably known in this community. No event of special importance occurred during his boyhood and youth, which were quietly passed in his parents' home and in attendance at the public schools, where his education was obtained. When a young man he learned the stone mason's trade, and for two years was in the employ of Mr. O'Hara, a prominent and well known eon tractor of Cedar Rapids. On attaining his majority he began business for himself. He opened up a stone quarry in this city and has since engaged in working the same. He there obtained an excellent quality of stone, it being one of the best quarries in Dubuque County, and from the sale of this product he receives a good income. He takes contracts for the lying of foundations and has placed the foundations under many of the finest and most substantial buildings of Dubuque. He also does the other masonry work on the buildings; he erected the Auburn school and many other structures in this city, including a number of notably fine ones. His work is also first class in all particulars and his efficiency has been one of the important factors in winning him the success, which has attended his efforts. He is now at the head of a good paying business and is numbered among the substantial citizens of the community.

January 16, 1889, Mr. Tibey was united in marriage with Miss Mary Mangner, a native of Houston, Minn. Their union has been blessed with a family of three interesting children, a son and two daughters, namely: John, Mary and Mabel. The parents are both members of the Catholic Church, and their pleasant home is located at No. 509 Cleveland Avenue. Mr. Tibey has always been actively identified with the work of public improvement and is a progressive and enterprising citizen who supports all interests calculated to advance the general welfare. With tile exception of the short period spent at Cedar Rapids he has always lived in Dubuque.
