Some of these families appear in the 1870 census as railroad workers. I have traced some from Ontario, Canada. One of the earliest was Ignatius O'Brien, who is listed in an 1800 tax list for the area in Hardin. I have records from Canada, and Hardin County that show the families intermarrying for generations. Is there anyone else with Irish roots on the list? Thank you for any help, Jean
