All:

I am in need of assistance in getting information about the Cruise and Callery families for my genealogical work.

My ancestors came directly from Roscommon County, Ireland to the United States sometime in the mid 1800's. My Great Great Great Grandfather, Henry Cruise, was born there and had the following children: Thomas (emigrated to Austrailia), Joseph (ended up in Kanakee, IL), George (ended up in Massena, IA), Arthur, Andrew, an unamed sister (she remained in Ireland and moved to Dublin later having three daughters [one of which named Mrs. Drury who lived in St. Albans Long Island, NY] and a son), and Henry (my Great Great Grandfather).

My GG Grandfather Henry married a lady named Bridget Callery (also born in Ireland and probably from Roscommon County) and eventually settled in Braidwood, IL. They had the following children: George, Rachel, Frances, Mary (Joncas), and Charles (my Great Grandfather). Charles was born in 1879 in Braidwood, later married one Anna Miller there and had three children: Jim (killed in WWII), Cathryn, and Ken (my Grandfather).

I would greatly appreciate any help in finding out more information on my family. Thanks.

All:

I have some additions and corrections to my recent posting for information concerning the Cruise & Callery families.

I discovered that my ggg Grandfather was named George (not Henry) and was married to Rachel Pritchard. Both of Roscommon County, Ireland as far as I know. Also, the previously unamed daughter of George's that stayed behind in Dublin I believe was named Catherine or Cathryn Cruise Callaghan.

So, I am looking for info on George & Rachel, Henry (George's son) and his wife Bridget Callery, as well as Catherine Cruise Callaghan. If anyone has any information, I would like to get in touch with you. Thanks for the help.
