I really have no idea where in Ohio they stopped. One clue might be that in Chicago in the 1900s James Daly's wife was attended by a physician named Timothy Daly at the time of her death ca. 1920. Someone online who was related to this medical doctor told me that he was raised in Ohio and attended medical school at one of the old Ohio colleges ... but I can't now remember if it was Antioch or another. I'm not really familiar with Ohio.

Mrs. Daly had a son Thomas who was also a medical doctor, but he had remained in Missouri. Dr. Timothy Daly was not listed in her obit but might well have been a relative of her husband and/or a relative of yours. Where is Lorain, Ohio? My guess was that they came via the Erie Canal and the Great Lakes and worked a year in Ohio to earn money to purchase cheaper land in Iowa.

James Daly was the son of John Daly and Mary Fallon of County Galway and I messed up when or if I said Cork because I had been looking for the Callahans from Cork all week before I wrote that (But they are on the other side of the family). The woman I was responding to was looking for evidence of the death of a Daly from Cork, who died enroute from eastern NY state to Iowa, as I recall. It's hard to write when you cannot read the thread!!!
