    I found my great uncle John Sullivan born 26/6/1871 in loughane castlecove co Kerry Irelan his parents were Daniel Sullivan and Hanora Fitzgerald. In 1940 he was living in township road 182 Wilson township Clinton Ohio age 69 and divorced I would like to know who his wife was and when they married and where .
    It also says his sister Margaret Brennan age 77 a widower is living there I never here'd of her until now .but I new we were related to a Brennan family somehow .she was born in Ireland in 1863 same home address as John Sullivan .iwould love to know who her --- Brennan was any help would be grate

    Hi Maurice
    I have also given this post a thread of its own as it was ignored when you first posted it as an addition to another post about the Sullivan family. Now, hopefully, it may attract some attention.
    If you have already got the answer to this can you let us know so we don't waste time searching.

    The transcripts of American Census records don't provide a reference - so basic personal details only
    1910 Census - Clinton Ohio
    John Brennan, age 49, born Ohio
    Margaret Brennan, age 46, born Ireland (I think the column entry reads "NI English"?), year of immigration 1878

    1920 Census - Clinton Ohio
    John Brennan, age 59, born Ohio
    Margaret Brennan, age 56, born Ireland

    1930 - not found

    Could this be her - I haven't checked the Censuses column by column.

    1930 Census - Wilson Township, Clinton
    Margaret Brennen, Head, Widowed, 66, born Irish Free State
    Cornelius Sullivan, Brother, single, 63, born Irish Free State
    John Sullivan, brother, divorced, 58, born Irish Free State

    Under "Citizenship" date of entry to USA is 1890 for all three.

    1920 Census - Clinton, Ohio
    Con Sullivan, Self, single, 52, born Ireland
    John Sullivan, brother, married, 42**, born Ireland
    Thomas Sullivan, father, widowed, 81, Ireland

    Date of immigration all three 1880 - Thomas naturalised 1885

    I think John's age has been transcribed incorrectly - should read 47 (b. 1863)

    "Con and John" appear to fit the 1930 "Cornelius and John" but the presence of father "Thomas" does not fit the father named in post #1.
