Seaarching home roots/ relatives for Denis Dwyer, b. Nenagh, County Tipperary in October 1829, who emigrated with an older brother and a sister to Ontario, Canada in 1849. Their father had died, and their mother stayed in Ireland to nurse an ailing sister.  When the sister died, the mother travelled to Canada as well.  Denis settled in Lochaber, Quebec.  His sister moved to New York City, where she married a New York policeman/ fireman, and raised a family of boys.
