Hi, I was born in Brooklyn and live now on Long Island NY. I am researching CONNELL, CULLITY, and I "think" now LYNCH. John and Hannah (Cullity) Connell are my g.grand-parents.They were Irish immigrants,but their arrival date is still a mystery.On the 1880 census John is 24,and he has died by the 1900 census,so I cannot find the year...or Hannah! Grand-mother Mary Connell was b.Worcester 1880.Her sister Julia however was b. Holyoke in 1879.Another sister Hannah was b.Worcester 1885 and died 1890.She is buried in St.Johns cemetery. By the 1900 census,Mary is living in NYC with the RYANs...she is listed as neice.Julia,is still in MA,now living with a Julia (John) Lynch family and is also listed as a neice. I am not sure,but John "may" have arrived 1863 on the Constantine.I have not been able to get a listing of all Connells on the Irish to America cds for that ship as yet. ANY help with these families will be greatly welcomed...

I know live about 150 miles away in Gonzales, near Baton Rouge. My search started with Ballou in Worcester, and is now in the Milwaukee, Oregon area where the only known relatives of my husband's father are, the 2 children of Verne Eustis Ballou,d. in 1980, but I have not been able to connect yet. This list has been useful and fun to belong to!
