Would anyone know if any records exist relative to the D&H Railroad in 1918 ? I am looking for information on my gr grandfather, Dennis McLaughlin, who was their flagman until his death in 1918. I am trying to learn where in Ireland he came from and was hopeful that federal employment records might shed some light on that. I do know that this railway was sold to Canadian Pacific and alot of old records were burnt in a fire in 1991. At least 2 of Dennis's sons also worked on the same railroad, James in Whitehall and Mike in Watervliet. Dennis lived in Granville and Middle Granville w his wife Margaret Alice Shaughnessy McLaughlin. We estimate he came over in the 1880's. Anne Baldwin
