My current "brick wall" is Thomas W. CONNOLLY (born 12/22/1856 in Ireland, died 10/26/1945 in Oregon). He apparently arrived in the USA between 1868-1872, but I have no info on port of arrival or ship name. He married May GROENDYKE on Oct 7, 1886 in Atchison County, Kansas.
Would appreciate any help which might lead me to his origins in Ireland.


We may have a connection, if you're researching any of these geographic areas:
Washington County, Oregon
Beaverhead County, Montana
Ravalli County, Montana
Ohio County, West Virginia
Tazewell County, Illinois
Hessen, Germany
Dublin, Ireland
