They left Donegal (a town called Termon) in 1880. Dont know where they arrived, but settled in Philadelphia. Not sure where to start. Lisa I would think they arrived in Phila., but could have arrived in NY. I was in Termon several years again and took pictures of many graves at the cemetery there. They are on Lindel's web site. You should go to Ellis Island web site and search there first. http://www.ellisisland.org/default.asp If you have any problem let me know and I will see if I can help. Janice
