I am on the genealogical trail, tracking relationships of my ancestors. My ggf, Patrick O'Leary was born in County Cork, Ireland (we believe). First mention of presence in USA was year 1850. Married a Catharine Powers in Galion,Ohio in 1854. Had three children --Honora, Miriam, James. Miriam died real young ( I think). Catharine died in 1860. GGF Patrick remarried, in 1862, to Julia Moynehan, in St Joseph's Cathedral in Buffalo, NY. They had 4 children--Nellie, Johanna, Humph, and John. Nellie and Johanna later ended up in Buffalo, NY and both died there, one in 1`936 and the other in 1943. However, both were brought over to Galion, Ohio by a Mrs William Naughton (who was a Moynehan by blood) and insured that both were buried in the O'Leary Family plot in the Catholic Cemetery portion of Fairview Cemetery of Galion, Ohio. Seems that John married and settled in Joliet, Illinois, raising a family of girls. I have no information on him at all. Humph was my grandfather. He was a veteran of the Spanish-American War, in the Philippine theater. The other side of the family had a relative who came from Hamburg, Germany many years after the turn of the century, arriving in NY and settling there. His name was Henri Steffan. His father, Carlos Steffan, was of Swiss descent. If there is anyone out there who may have even the vaguest notion of a connection or of someone who may have some knowledge of some link to these names, I would definitely like to hear from them.
