Michael and Catherine migrated to Chebanse, IL and raised their family there; they had nine children.
Both Michael and Catherine died and are buried in Chebanse, he in 1918 and she in 1911. Catherine was from Dublin, Ireland.
No complete information pertaining to their respective emigrations (yet!) so don't know if they came with other family members nor what are the names of their respective parents.
One daughter, Elizabeth married John H. Ader; (the Aders lived in Chebanse, IL). Another daughter, Catherine, married John Courtney; (the Courtneys lived in Chicago.)
Am eager to share what I do know and very eager to hear from any descendants from Michael and Catherine. Would also be very interested in photos if anyone has some and would be willing to have copies made. (I would happily pay for same.)
Tks!
