My dad was born in Floyd Twp, O'Brien, Iowa in 1914.
His dad was born in Shelby Co., OH abt. 1885
His dad was born in Roscrea, County Tipperary, Ireland abt. 1844
His dad was born in abt 1821 somewhere in Ireland & his Death was Mar 1888 in Staffordshire, United Kingdom

I'm having a hard time researching Ireland & England.

Do we meet up? Maybe?
