The Michael Gibbons in Tuam would be a different person. I spoke to a family member a couple of days ago who had been told Thomas Gibbons died in Ireland in the early 1920s but that must be him in Ohio as his parents and brothers names are there. However I can't find a record for him at Ellis Island.

We also now believe John never went to the USA but Kate did, however we have little information to go on and i cant yet find her at Ellis Island. Also, we don't know what happened to Annie after she arrived in 1922.

It would be great if anyone had any more information

Thank you

Brendan

Hi Brendan,

Annie probably married but since marriage records would be few and far between for that timeframe it may not be possible to trace her - unless of course you can ascertain an exact date of birth and then it might be possible.
Could Kate have married prior immigrating to the USA ?

Kate was single when she went to the USA and we assume she went to Chicago as we now know Michael...Mary...Pat ( for a few years )....Tom and Annie went there ! I have no exact date of births apart from the 1901 and 1911 censuses earlier in this thread. Ive been looking at familysearch and found a Kate Gibbons living in the house of D Owen Cottrell, Chicago Ward 13, immigrated 1908 in the 1910 census but thats all i know at the moment.

I was also wondering if you had any information on my grandfather Patrick Gibbons. He arrived in Ellis Island April 1912 with his cousins Patrick and Mary Kate Walsh en route to their Aunt, a lady called Mrs Border Bordis or Bandman ?? 1304 Rosedale Ave Chicago Illinois. He returned to Ireland sometime around 1924.

Thank You

Fully expected to find Patrick on the SSDI - now we have a birth date but he doesn't seem to show.  That could mean he died before 1962 ish or he may have returned to Ireland ?
