Kathleen Losty Carrigan Have you checked the passenger lists posted on Ancestry.com and also Ellis Island site? What year did your Great grandmother come over? Where did she come in?( Boston, NY, Phila etc) Passenger lists often list place of last residence and may even list a relatives name and address. I found quite a few of my relatives on the passenger lists! Good luck! Maura Foster Kildare names: O'Connor,Brophy, Monaghan/Monahan > > >
