TANCRED family of Dublin
I believe I am in the correct parish of St Michans. My gt grandfather John Tancred born 1795 in Dublin emigrated to the US in New York in May 1869 along with his son John to visit another son Michael Tancred also born in Dublin abt 1834. John (1795) married a woman named Mary ( unknown birth or death) but assume that Mary died before 1869. John (1795) died in New York 10 months after arriving and is buried in the family plot (TANCRED) in Calvary Cemetery Woodside,Queens County,New York City. John the son b.abt 1838 married in NYC, Anna King of Ireland and lived in New Jersey until his death abt 1905. In the mortality index of 1870 maintained by US Federal Index, there is another Michael Tancred born in Dublin 1799 who died of consumption. This Michael had lived with the younger Michael as referenced by the address given at death. Tancred name is quite prevalent in Dublin but I am not certain whether they all settled in Liverpool and then came to NY. This is one of the walls that I have come up against.
