I am looking for 4 brothers, Maurice, John, Patrick, and William who left their sister Margaret in Ireland and came to the USA circa 1880s. 2 brothers remained in NYC - Manhatan & Bronx area of which my gr. grandfather, John who married Ellen (Nellie) Delahanty and had a son John and daughter Ellen, my grandmother. 2 brothers went to live in Illinois - oral tradition Cook County near/in Chicago. They got together somewhere in early 1910-20s to go back to Ireland for sister's funeral and reading of Will. John had already passed by then, believed to be abt 1904. Cannot find anything more and appreciate all help.
