My 2nd great grandfather, Alfred CAHILL was born in Canada in
1828. He entered the U.S. in 1847 at the port of Oswego, in Oswego Co,
NY and was married there to Jerusha WELCH (daughter of Elisha WELCH and
Fannie CALKINS) in 1849. By 1850 they were in Walworth Co, WI, where
they raised their children Eugene William, Walter M., Byron E., Mary
Ophelia, Alice Eloise, Evan LaVerne and Elmer J.
When Alfred married, his name was given as Petrie CAHILL. I have
no idea why. I'm looking for any information about him in Oswego Co, NY,
or in Canada, since I don't have a clue as to where in Canada he came
from. His parents were both born in Ireland, according to his Census
records. If anyone can help, I'd be forever grateful.
Sandy
