I am embracing my Irish heritage. I am looking for my great grandfather's roots in Ireland. My great grandfather was baptized 8/28/1838 in Laharan, Boherbue Ireland. His name was Denis Connell and he came to America and settled in Washington, DC in the 1850's. He was a grocer on Capitol Hill. I am looking for info on his exact arrival date in the US and info on his Irish family. His father was John Connell,born 1810 and his mother was Mary Sullivan, born 1815. I would like to know when they were marrried and in which county. I believe John Connell's parents were William Connell and Mary Connor. I would like info on these ancestors and the names of Denis's siblings and who might have come to America also.
Thank you,
Carolyn
