Happy New Year to all! It's got to be a better one, right?
I am a descendant of Michael P. (Patrick?) Cavanaugh. He was born 01 Jun
1835 in Limmerick, Ireland. He married Alice McGrath (McGraw?) on 12 Mar
1861 in Mattoon, IL. He died 03 Feb 1908 in Mattoon, IL. Their children
were Thomas, John Joseph, James, Ambrose, Katherine, Mary Ann, Michael
Patrick, Alice, William and Bertha (my Grandmother). Michael P. was a Civil
War veteran. As far as I can tell all of the children were born in IL.
Michael Patrick did travel to KY to marry but ended up back in IL. Alice
died in IN. It looks like all of the other children stayed in IL. Other
surnames involved are: Newland, Cox, Reynolds, Cordes, Erhart, Garver,
Price, Cantrell, and Sweice (Sweiss).
Thanks for suggesting this roll call, Gwen. I think it's a great idea!
Mary Beth (Newland) Ross

Good Morning List!
(don't you just hate cheery people in the morning ;-)
I hope everyone is well and having excellent luck in their searches
for
missing family members. I'm currently searching for a friend who doesn't
have the slightest interest (or the time) to do the search herself. (It's
funny how I get roped into these kinds of projects...what is it about not
being able to say "no"? :-) And, of course, it's been giving me pains!
Since it is the beginning of a new year (2002 already! - where did
the
time go?), I think it would be a wonderful idea to have a roll call.
Generally, roll calls are not encouraged, but once (or twice) a year is not
going to hurt. So, dust off all your information - I want to hear from each
and every one of you.
Wishing everyone the best for the new year!
Cheers,
Gwen Cameron
