Gender
Male
Place of migration
Migrated to/Born in USA

Lived in Terrydremon townland just south of Limavady.
Married Mary Kane (1835-1903) and had 9 children - 6 baptized in Dungiven RC parish Derry (John (~ 1863 but no record), Patrick, Mary Ann, Andrew, Mary (E?) and Ann were all listed as living in Terrydremon in the baptismal records), before immigrating to Philadelphia Pa, and last 3 were born in Philly (Sarah, Ellen and Elizabeth).
Denis was a blacksmith and his son John (my great grandfather) was as well. 
Other than the baptismal records of their children, I have had little success in finding them in other records, or learning more about his wife Mary Kane. 
I do have DNA connections to a Kane family from nearby, but no common ancestor as neither of us can get past the start of legal records.
