looking for parents and siblings of Denis Connell in the 1800's
My great grandfather, Denis Connell, immigrated to the US and settled in the DC area.He was born in Ireland in 1838 and came here as a young boy. I know he was a grocer on Capitol Hill, in the old Swampoodle area, and married Catherine Rover in 1860.I have his history and his descendants from there but I do not know what other family members came over to the US with him.His parents were John and Mary Connell but I am most interested in finding any of his siblings.My only hint is a small prayer book that has the name Mary Louise Connell, 1879 in it.Her address is written in it as 741 7th & N St. N.W.Mary Louise gave the prayer book to "Annie" whom I believe was Denis' daughter, Anna. I believe the family attended St. Aloysius, I know Katherine Rover's family did.I have not received any information from St. Aloysius.I do know that my grandfather, another Denis Connell, was baptised there in 8/1886.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Carolyn Stone
