I am researching the Maurice (aka Morris)Quill family.He was born in Ireland. It is believed in County Kerry.He Immigerated to the United States on July 2, 1847. So far I have been able to establis he sailed to the US aboard the ship Ashburton, saling out of Liverpool, England.He was accompanied by his Brother Dennis and Dennis' wife Mary.The two brothers listed their occupations as farmers.Mary was listed as a housewife. Shortly after arriving in the US he married Mary Hickey in New York City.They had at least two children in NY and then moved to the Chicago Area.His Brother also moved to Chicago. I have been unable to locate where in Ireland Maurice was born or the names of his parents.Any help would be greatly apprec1ated | |
