==Early years==
Born in 1853, in Watertown, Connecticut, he was the son of an ardent Irish nationalist, Patrick William (P. W.) Dunne (1832–1921), who emigrated to America in 1849 after the failed Young Ireland revolt.〔Morton, Richard Allen. ''Justice and Humanity: Edward F. Dunne, Illinois Progressive Insurance.'' p. 1-4. Carbondale, Ill.: Southern Illinois University Press, 1997.〕 His mother, Delia Mary (Mary) Lawlor, was the daughter of a prosperous Irish contractor, and participant in the Irish Rebellion of 1798, who helped construct the docks of Galway.〔
The family moved to Peoria, Illinois in 1855 while Dunne was still an infant, and he was educated there in the public schools.〔Curtis, Georgina Pell.''The American Catholic Who's Who, Vol 1.'' p. 179-180. Washington, DC, 1910.〕 Dunne had three sisters. His father refused to send his son to the local Catholic academy, because the Catholic Church had spoken out against the activities of the Fenians.,〔
P. W. Dunne was a prosperous businessman, active in both Irish and American politics.〔 He raised money for the Fenians, gave generously of his own funds, and frequently hosted Irish politicians, political exiles, and rebels in his home when they traveled to Chicago.〔 P. W. Dunne served on the Peoria City Council in the 1860s and was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives.
