We are looking for links; siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins who relate to our CAHILLS. The following is what we know. JAMES (or could be Patrick) CAHILL was born in IRELAND and married JOHANNA (WALSH?) in Ireland. They had at LEAST two children, WILLIAM and MICHAEL. William was born May 1, 1838 in CO. CLARE(?), IR. Michael was born 1845 in Ireland. We know that William immigrated to America in 1848, Johanna and Michael probably came at the same time, but we are not sure if James ever did get to the States. We do not know where they entered. Or where they were, 1848-1855. William arrived in ILLINOIS in 1855 (age 17) and spent the rest of his life in IL. He married ELLEN QUINN, April 30, 1862 at St. Patrick's Church in LASALLE, LaSalle Co., IL. They had 3 children; MICHAEL, MARY, MARGARET (married a BRADY and a COOK) all born in LaSalle: and 4 children born in NEVADA Township, LIVINGSTON Co., IL; JOHN, WILLIAM, JAMES and ELLEN "Nellie" (married HANLEY). William died Dec. 31, 1910, Nevada Township, buried at St. Paul's Cemetery, Odell, Livingston Co., IL Michael (William's brother) married MARY E (?) and they had at LEAST two children; JAMES born 1878, IL and MARY born June 20, 1879, IL. Mary died at a very early age and is buried at St. Paul's Cemetery, Odell, IL. We cannot locate William in 1860 or 1870 Federal Census, but he and his family are found in the 1880 Census and thereafter in Nevada Township with his family and many of his descendants are in that area yet today. Michael, his mother Johanna, his family are found in the 1870 and 1880 Federal Census in HIGHLAND TOWNSHIP, GRUNDY CO, IL. Cannot locate them in the 1860 Census. We also can't locate Michael, Johanna (mother) or James (son) after he sold his land in Highland Township in 1892. We have checked cemeteries, death records, obituaries to no avail. We would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who might relate to any of the above given names, locations, dates of our Cahill's. Thanks for listening.
