Hi Cassidy Researchers
I'm a relatively new subscriber to the Cassidy List and don't know
exactly how to go about it yet.
My Cassidys came from Ireland but, alas, I'm not sure what county.
Some US
Census reports indicate Dublin and some Ireland. There are conflicting
dates
as to when they came to the US. One says they came in 1843 and one says
1848.
It appears they came directly to Missouri and settled there where they
were boot
and shoemakers.
The first record I have shows them in Lincoln County Missouri in
1850. My GGGrandfather, Joseph Cassidy, and his wife Jane Horman had
children, James, Thomas, Laura, Peter, Catherin and Ann. All were born
in Ireland.
My Great Grandfather Thomas Cassidy first married Mary Ann Turnbull
and had children, William Theodore, James Peter, Lucinda Jane, Sarah
Catherine and Casander. He moved to Texas County Missouri and after
Mary Ann's death, married Nancy Kivett and had children Mary Ann, Joseph
T., Robert C., Nancy Leora, John Alfred, Autilla and Henry Augusta.
My Grandfather James Peter Cassidy married Charlotte Temple McDaniel
and had children, Dulceny, Mary Annie, Orville Sebastian, Maggie May,
Tyre Martin, Sim Walter and Bessie.
My father Tyre Cassidy married Mazel Rosanna Highley and had
children, Orville Edwin, Jack Simmons, and myself .
I would like to know where in Ireland my ancestors came from and
will be happy to share further information about my family.
Jimmie Cassidy
