Per a baptismal record, my second great-grandfather, David Fitzgerald, may have been baptized on 10 Mar 1830 in Castlegregory, Kerry, Ireland to a David Fitzgerald and Catherine Lynch.

My second great-grandfather, David Fitzgerald appears to have been married to a Mary. They had my great-grandfather, David Mickel Fitzgerald whom I believe was born about Mar 1864 in Ireland.

They immigrated to the United States around 19 April 1880  from Liverpool, England on the ship Egypt.  Per the passenger list, there were other children of this union born in Ireland:

  • John about 1856
  • James about 1862
  • Mary about 1862
  • Morris or Maurice about 1869

 

David Mickel Fitzgerald married Annie Krause of Irish/Gernam descent.  They had 7 children.  My grandfather was John Clearance Fitzgerald born April 23, 1902.  The other children of that union:

  • Ella  1892
  • Ellen  1892
  • William Henry  1895
  • David Jr. aka Dutch  1899 - 1967
  • Anna  1905
  • Elizabeth 1909

 

My grandfather, John Clearance Fitzgerald married Thelma Louis Paul.  They had 11 children.  My father was Roy Sylvestor Fitzgerald borh July 21, 1933, died August 5, 2000.  The other children of that union:

  • Robert J.  1925 – 1986
  • Eyleen L.  1927 – 1991
  • Ernest E.  1928 – 1993
  • Clarence Thomas  1932 – 2001
  • John David  1935 – 2005
  • Patricia Ann  1938 – 2001
  • Elizabeth  1939 -
  • Helen Angeline  1940
  • Darlene  1941 – 2011
  • Richard Paul  1944

 

 

I am attempting to research my family history and would appreciate any help.
