January 21, 2001 Subject: Coffin Family HI, Just wanted to tell you I love your pages. Great work. I have COFFINs in my family from Newfoundland. There were alot of people who left NFLD and went to New England because of the fishery business. Any chance your rellies were from there? Willing to share info, if you are interested. Kind regards, Anne Patten Oliver Stuck in Sunny SW Florida

From: Gail Ann Hodges Levis Saturday, August 12, 2000 8:43 AM Subject: Cassilly Surname Good morning from the Quad Cities USA where the Mississippi River runs east and west. I'm extremely impressed with your home page. WOW! I'm writing today because I also have Cassilly's. My mother is Beverly Ann Cassilly Hodges. Her great grandfather was Edward A. (possibly H) Cassilly from Pittsburgh, PA. Unsure just which Cassilly brother (from Ireland) we connect into but am working towards that. Edward and his wife, Elinor Cready, came from Pittsburgh to LeClaire, Iowa, abt. 1856. They traveled with one of Elinor's sisters and stopped at Omaha, Nebraska. The sister stayed but Edward and Elinor came to Scott County, Iowa, specifically LeClaire. Although the Cassilly surname ended with my mother's father, Merle, two of my nieces have the name, Cassilly Ann Rech and Kari Cassilly Ackermann. My home page is out here, too. But yours is worth a visit back. Have a good weekend. Gail Ann Hodges Levis 1720 East 11th Street Davenport, IA 52803 (319) 322-1916 Subject: HELLO From: jerry
coffin <> Subj: Cassilly geneology search Date: 98-07-11 From: Joe Cassilly My name is Joseph I. Cassilly. Our branch of the Cassilly family has lived in Maryland since about 1885. My father is Robert Rogers Cassilly, Jr. his father was senior and my great grandfather was Thomas Alexander Cassilly. I have found an old court case dated 1851 in Maryland where one of the parties was a Cassilly, but I have not been able to connect him to us. Our family had at one time had a dry goods company in Canton, Ohio. I have found a reference to the Cassilly Company Store in an 1831 report of a flood. I would dearly love any info you have on the Cassilly arrival from Ireland. One of my uncles has a family Bible which lists 7 brothers a and a sister who came from Ireland but there aren't any dates and I suspect that the entries were probably from their grnadchildren or later. I am hoping to find a port of entry. Subject: GLYNN Surname Date: Sat, 29 Nov 1997 From: Rick Mollica To: Paddy Glynn Hi Paddy - I saw your entry in a Roots Surname List. I have a John Glynn born in Ireland, married to Catherine Manning (also born in Ireland). They had a daughter Bridget Glynn born in July 1837 in Ireland, died on September 19, 1906 in Haverhill, Massachusetts USA. Bridget married a Martin Burke. Sorry I don't know anymore than what is in this e-mail. Is there anything here that you can add to? Many thanks in advance... Rick Mollica in Olney, Maryland, USA Date: Fri, 5 Dec 1997 From: PADDY GLYNN As you give me so little info it may be hard to define who is who and from which of the 25 separate Glynn familys your ancestor comes from perhaps in Galway or Clare or Mayo. However the Manning Surname from that time leads me to think you may be a decendent from the west Galway Branch Ie Glway City as young people of that time uassaly Married within a short radius of each other and the Manning surname is more associated with Galway city and its environs than say county Clare or Mayo. It's only a guess on my part but try the Tuam Archdioces Records and look for the records of the Parish of Dunmore Co Galway I don't have a match on my records. Good Luck from Paddy Glynn Date: Mon, 1 Dec 1997 From: John M. Falla Rick, Eaton's "History of Thomaston, Rockland & South Thomaston" says that George Augustus COFFIN, b.abt.1859, was the son of Augustus COFFIN and his wife, Ann -?-, and that they resided in South Thomaston. I'd suggest writing to the South Thomaston "expert":
If you wish, you can tell him I referred you to him. Subject: Mollica Ancestor in US Civil War Date: Sun, 30 Nov 1997 From: Rick Mollica ...anyway, we have a couple of George COFFINs in our ancestry from Thomaston Maine. Lo and behold, today I found a reference to a George Coffin from Maine who served in the Civil War and kept a diary! I'll try to find the diary article; reference below. Rick
Subject: Re: Mollica Ancestor in US Civil War Date: Sun, 30 Nov 1997 From: MoZi23@aol.com I did a loan for a girl named Coffin and her dad said that you can trace all the Coffins in America back to one guy who came over on the Mayflower. I guess he ended up owning all of Nantucket or Martha's Vineyard. They had relatives from Amesbury/Haverhill area. |
