I'm not sure if anyone can help me, but I'm stuck so here goes.
My mother-in-law is a brilliant old lady and wants to know more about her roots. Her ggrandfather was called John Casey (1835) and was born in Ireland - yes, I do know Ireland is a big place, though she believes he came from somewhere near Cork. Anyhow, this John Casey (mother called Catherine and father called James) was born in or around Cork she thinks, though the other siblings were born and raised in Leeds. I think they went to Leeds around 1836 - 1842.
The question is where and what connection? I've got no idea on how to find out, but would dearly love to be able to not just tell her, but to take her to Ireland and show her. As she is now over 80 and not a well old lady then I can't hang around until I learn how to find out the information. Can anyone help me?
Thanks for reading this.
