Looking for information on Ellen O’BRIEN/BRYAN b 1825 in Ireland. Think she was born in Ballindangan, Glanworth Co Cork. This assumption is based on an article that appeared in "Missing Friends " a series of books published by the New England Genealogical Society which reprinted ads in the Boston Pilot from 1831 to 1876. Ad placed by Ellen (O'BRYAN) CUMMINGS in 1875 her address as Taylorsville PO Luzerne Co PA. (This is Taylor borough of Scranton, now Lackawanna Co ) She was looking for her sister Margaret (O'BRYAN) CHUSIC (CUSICK/CUSACK) of Ballydangan, Co. Cork who came to US 16 yrs prior and had settled in Massachuetts. 2nd Ad names her as Margaret (O'BRIEN) CHUSIC and names her husband as William, her home as Ballindangan, parish of Glanworth, Co. Cork and coming to the US 18 or 19 years previous is sought by her sister Ellen O'BRIEN same address but to John CUMMINGS. Parish Glanworth is in the extreme northeast of Co Cork (not near the Beara Peninsula). Ellen O’BRIEN was married to John CUMMINS/CUMMINGS and they raised most of their family in the Rhymney, Tredgar area of Wales. Their family Ellen 1845; Michael 1853; Richard 1857; Andrew 1859; John 1862 were all born in Wales. They were members of the Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception in Tredgar. The CUMMINGS family came to US and daughter Catherine was born in Hastings on the Hudson, NY in 1865. They settled in the Scranton PA area (Old Forge, Minooka, Taylor areas). Their eldest daughter Ellen married Patrick SULLIVAN in 1863 in Rhymney, Wales. Would appreciate any information or suggestions. Please contact me Walton J. Sullivan at wsullivw@aol.com Walton J.
