Searing for Elizabeth Connolly. She was born in 1889. I know that she left Carrickmacross, Monaghan, Ireland in the same year that the Titanic was lost. In fact, she was to sail on it, but had a last minute change of plans. I know that she went to Canada, and settled in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada. As far as the family knows, she came alone and had no contact with Ireland after she reached Canada. The family also believes that she had a brother that went to the United States. Her father was John Connolly. I feel like I am searching for a needle in a haystack with nice common names like these! At one point someone on the list mentioned that I could probably write to get Elizabeth's birth certificate from the Vital Records Office. However, I never found out how to do that. I live in the United States. If someone could help me with learning how to do that, I would really appreciate it. No, I didn't say do it for me! I'm just asking for advice on how to do things so I'll learn how it is done. Thanks a lot, Lisa
