I'm posting this in hope that it will find a "living someone" in this line. We are said to have come from County Cork, but I'm still looking for proof. The primary immigrants were the DALYs, the other surnames married within these families, but they had also come from Ireland. First DALY immigrants: John (ca.1795-1843), James (ca.1803-1843), and Lawrence (ca.1807/15-1905). These brothers arrived in the US ca. 1830. John and James settled in Grafton, Lorain OH by 1833. They died within months of each other. Lawrence, my GrGf was in OH by 1845. The 1900 US Census says he was in the US in 1830, but I haven't been able to prove it. He may have been in St. Clair, IL on the 1840 Census. In 1863, he married my GrGm, Mary Ann EGAN (ca. 1835-1922), who had immigrated in 1851. The next immigrant was Michael DALY (ca.1832-1900). He arrived in 1859. He married Catherine O'ROURKE (ca.1845-1908) in the US, after her arrival here in 1860. By 1863, they live in OH on Lawrence's land. It's not clear how Michael and Lawrence are related. Michael might be a late-born half-brother of a second marriage, or Lawrence was Michael's uncle. Catherine had a brother, Martin (ca.1847-1903), who arrived in the US, 1868. Catherine and Martin are the children of John O'ROURKE and Ann KENNY/EARNY. Martin married Ann O'DONNELL (ca.1853-1930). She was the daughter of Hugh O'DONNELL and Bridget JOHNSTON/SON. The O'Donnell's other daughter, Margaret (ca.1844-1924) married John MOORE. Once all these families arrived in Northern Ohio, they lived in Lorain County, and some moved to Cleveland, Cuyahoga, OH. If this sounds familiar, I'd appreciate knowing it. Thanks, Trish
