Follow Your Family Through Their Chain Migrationwith KEVIN CASSIDY The average Irish immigrant did not arrive in the U.S. alone. He likely followed an already existing chain of relatives, friends, and neighbors who had crossed the pond. This talk details how to find the pathway and track one’s family back to the parish of origin. Forum member Kevin Cassidy is an avid researcher and lecturer on genealogy topics. He has spoken across the U.S., as well as Ireland. Cassidy has traced his own family tree back to the townlands of origin for all eight of his great-grandparents. The presentation will also be available on Zoom at 10:45 a.m. for those members who are unable to come to the library. Location: Freeport Memorial Library, 144 West Merrick Road, Freeport, NY 11520. Parking: Metered parking is behind the library and Merrick Road. Free parking is located at the shopping center across Merrick Road. |
