Hi Linda,
Sean can probably help you out on this issue.
My first cousin Mike, who lives in Gowanda, NY also gave me some photos of the family and homestead in Jessup, Pa. Not sure its the same cousin Mike who gave you your photos.
Unfortunately I did not find information on Michael Connors while in Cork but there sure are a lot of them in that part of Ireland. Problem is that many records are not yet online and I ran out of time. Hopefully we can find more info as more records are digitized.
Stay in touch.
Jack
