Cummins in Cleveland, Ohio back to Ire.

I have a Samuel Cummins (or Cummings) who came to Cleveland from Ireland with his wife Bridget Casey Cummings between 1850 and 1858. They had Julia around 1850, Elizabeth around 1858 and Catherine around 1859. There may be other children, but I dont know much about them.

Julia was born in Ireland, Elizabeth in Ohio and Catherine in Ohio afterwards. I have found Julia and Elizabeth living with their husbands, names O'Neil and Bates respectively in the same house on Herschel St. in the historic Tremont district of Cleveland in the 1880 census. I think my GGgrandmother Catherine is living with her aunt (possibly) Julia Casey on the same street.

Anyway, I have found a large number of Cummins and Cummings in this Tremont district even into the censuses of 1920. I'm looking for links. I have yet to find any official record to acknowlege that Samuel and Bridget existed or went by those names, but family lore has passed it down and several of the children are in official records that I have found. Many of the Cummins and Cummings went to St. Augustine Catholic Church in the Tremont neighborhood.

I'm looking for anything anyone can provide.
