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 location as their brothers but
I dont know where that is yet. One daughter is said to have moved to Australia.
