Hello George,
You have left some interesting notes on the forum.As I said earlier, my grandmother was Eliza Twohig Connell, the 2nd daughter of David Joseph Twohig.I too would have enjoyed to have more information regarding the Twohigs.My great aunt Laura Doyle was a wealth of information.I don't know if any of her grand nieces or grand nephews mined that information before she died in 1977.If anyone would have it would most likely be Giles Clark.Giles would be in his mid or late 70's now.He was something of a historian early on and may have some of the information we seek.Giles mother, Laura May, was the daughter of Nora Twohig Connell.Nora was Dr. James Peter Connell's first wife.She died following the birth of her 3rd child, George.Eliza (Elizabeth), her sister, came and helped by running the household and caring for the children.She ended up marrying Dr. Connell after a few years.As far as I know Giles still lives in WI, but I've been unable to locate him.I will renew my search and let you know.I guess I need to visit FDL Co. sometime and see the farm.I was there only once that I can recall when I was very young.
