Dear Sirs/Madam

I have been corresponding with Aiden Lawes of the Public Record
Office about Irish  coming to England. I also sent him some
letters
that I have from my G G G Uncle to my G G G Grandfather in 1864,
he went to New York and the other two brothers came to London.
They left Dublin about 1848 and I have John and Maria in the
1850
Census in New York I also have Maria who married a Fitzgerald in
1880
She is the head of household and mother is living with her. Also
her
brother Charles. The son George I have not found in spite of the

fact that John told his brother to send letters to his address.
I
found the Umbrella makers that he mentioned but nothing else out
of Ireland. I do hope that these letters are of interest to you.
The originals are in very poor condition but I have them stored
in
acid free sleeves.





Yours sincerely






Diane Tempest.
