Thank you for the offer of cemetery records.
I am not related.I pick postings at random and answer them.
I am always trying to connect Cassidys to my Bridget "Biddy Red Pat" Cassidy b. abt. 1838 of Coppenabane, Glangevlin, County Cavan, Ireland, who was married to Owen "Foxy" McGovern of Mully Lower, Glangevlin, County Cavan, Ireland.
Owen and Bridget McGovern stayed in Ireland, but most of their children immigrated to the U.S. and settled in Chicago, Illinois.
Bridget's father was Patrick "Red Pat" Cassidy of Coppenbane.Her brother, Patrick Cassidy, is listed on the family land in the 1901 Ireland census.I was in Ireland in February 2005 and I got a glimpse of the land now owned by a neighbor.
Good luck with your research!
