In reply to Lin who is researching WILSON. I am researching a Caroline Wilson born in 1822 in NY. Her daughter Mary Ester Pierce was born in Troy around 1852. Caroline was listed as widow of David Pierce when she, her daughter and possibly two brothers, Samuel and James Wilson, first appeared in the Cincinnati, OH city directories of late 1860s. Any connections? I'd be grateful for any suggestions or advice from anyone. Thank you.

Known children, Daniel, Martin, Patrick, Hugh, and John W. Gallagher, left for America in late 1840's. All to Hoosick Falls, New York, area. John W., wife Julia LABARRON, came earlier. If any of them would have traveled up the St. Lawrence, where might have been a likely place for them to debark? If any of this sounds familiar, I'd love to talk further. Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated.
