My great grandfather was Thaddeus O'Callaghan from Roscommon, Eire. He is
not your Thady but I'm wondering if there is a connection. Here is what I
know:
Thaddeus was born in 1870 in or near Frenchpark, Roscommon. His father was
Timothy O'Callaghan born 1838 in or near Frenchpark, Roscommon. Timothy
married Bridget Bolton (not 100% sure this is the correct name). They
immigrated to the US in 1870 and settled in Michigan. Timothy had a brother
Patrick who stayed in Ireland (there are likely more siblings but this is
the only I've identified). I have a letter written by Patrick to Timothy
and in this letter he mentions that Thomas Corcoran and Anne Boulten are
dead.
Any connections?
