Well I cant remember if I posted this family or not!! I'm getting old.
Anyway I've been tracking this family because I find them in the 1900
Census living in the same building as my Gr Grandmother (Margaret Cassidy)
and her famaly. My Gr grandfather died in 1898 at the age of 48. My
assumption is that they are related to my Cassidys.
Lizzie (Elizabeth) Cassidy's maiden name is McAuley.

Catherine, the Mother, died in 1876. John Cassidy, the father, dies in Oct,
1890. Michael dies in 1881. Patrick Cassidy dies in 1898 and John, the son,
in 1893. I do not know yet what happens to the 3 daughters. I find them in
no graves and havent found any names on John and Patrick's childrens
baptismal sponsors that would fit them if they married. I cant find John
and Patricks marriage licenses and I've written all the churches in
Greenpoint open at the time and they havent found them either. So the
daughters probadly were married in the same locatoion as their brothers but
I dont know where that is yet.

I was looking for my OBriens and Rourkes (Rorke) and thought I'd scrable
down some Cassidys. The Irish move to Brooklyn later than New York City.
Most Irish first spend time in New York City (Manhattan at this time) then
move on to Brooklyn or other locations. My Cassidys arent here yet and my
diect line moves straight to Greenpoint Brooklyn -- one reason I track
other Cassidys in Brooklyn is because I believe they had relatives In
Brooklyn. Also Brooklyn was much smaller in 1848; only 1-11 Wards of Kings
Co. As I was writting these addreses down one thing I noticed is that many
of the Cassidy are living in the area known as Irishtown which is
principlely in ward 5; located between the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges
now -- close to the Navy Yard .
oh yeh I'm dyslexic so forgive my spelling and typing mistakes
