In reading your
Ancestry.com posting I wonder if any of my Cashman family are related as
the names are much the same but the dates don't match but many of my dates are not
exact. My father's mother was Anna Cecile Cash b.October 20, 1890 d. December 15,
1954. She lived in Exeter, New Hampshire but was listed as born in Manchester, New
Hampshire either on the boat returning from Ireland or immediately thereafter it arrived
in the USA as her father John Cashman b.March 15, 1834 had returned to Ireland where he
married his 2nd wife (my Great Grandmother - Mary Ellen Donahue b. abt November 10, 1864
d. abt December 25, 1931 - I think in New Hampshire) . John was the son of Timothy
Cashman b. abt 1803 and d. December 26, 1860. Timothy was married to a Mary Murphy.
That is all the information I have other than John's first wife's first name was
Ellen. My Grandmother's mother Mary Ellen Donahue's father was John Donahue and
her mother was Nora Murphy. Most all of these C!
ashman's immigrated from Ireland at some point. Mostly from the Counties of Cork or
Killarnie (? spelling).
My Grandmother did have a full-brother Michael younger than she was and he moved from New
Hampshire to either Massachusetts or Rhode Island but have no information for him. She
also had 2 half-brothers and a half-sister older than she but I know nothing about them
either and until I find some relative out there I will keep searching for connections to
our family. My parents and Aunts and Uncles have all passed on so there is no one close
to me to ask the questions I need answered.
Allmost all of my Grandmother's family were born in Ireland. My Grandmother was
married to Wayne Moses Colby b. July 30, 1887 d. March 1968. I do have my Colby family
ancestry all the way back to our first USA ancester Anthony Colby who came to the USA in
1630. My maiden name is Colby. Now I hope to find my Cashman ancestors.... Thanks for
any help at all. Or, even any leads to good information. Sandra Jane Colby (Giroux)
