Hello, I am at a complete standstill and would appreciate some advice. My grandfather, Hugh LEONARD, went to the US in 1913 through Ellis Island. After that I cannot find him and quite frankly don't know where to start. He was in America for approximately 20 years and then he returned to Ireland where he married my grandmother in 1934. All of his sibling also went to America. I have found them on the Ellis Island site but know nothing of them after that either. John- arrived 1904 (maybe) Peter- arrived 1903 James- arrived 1906 Maggie- arrived 1916 Mary- arrived 1915 but maybe also 1906 Hugh (my granfather)- arrived 1913 Biddy (Bridget)- rrived 1911 Annie- arrived 1910 Owen- arrived 1915 Kate- arrived 1920 Owen, Kate and Mary went to Chicago and the rest all stayed in NY as far as I know. I actually did find (throught the Chicago Tribune Historical Archives) living daughters of Mary LEONARD in Chicago. They wanted nothing to do with me and one of them actually hung up on me so they were no help. I was extremely disappointed in them since they are my father's first cousins and could have been so helpful but I also have a lot of information for them about their mother and their father. I don't know where to start. I know almost nothing about this side of the family. My Aunt says that her father was a quite man and never told them anything about his family. He died when my father was 10 so the children were all too young to ever learn anything about his family. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you Pauline Leonard Ontario Canada
