Message Board Post:
Yes, your Dad and me are second cousins, so you and I would be second cousins once
removed. My Dad was Raymond Patrick Cahill, and he was the son of Lawrence Welchian
Cahill who was George Willis Cahill's brother.
Did you know that twins run in the family? Lawrence Welchian and Annie were twins and
Albert and Alice Belle were twins (all children of John Patrick and Elizabeth J Seward.
I haven't been able to get farther back than John Patrick, but I do know that
Elizabeth Seward's father was Stephen Seward and that Elizabeth was born in Kentucky.
John Patrick Cahill was born in 1833 in Ireland. He also had a son named John Patrick.
The death cetificates of some of the children of John Patrick and Elizabeth state that
John Patrick was born in Dublin, Ireland. I do know that he was born in Ireland and can
remember stories about him that were passed down through my grandfather. If you're
interested I'll send you what I know about him.
