Hello! I am looking for some information on my great-great grandfather, Peter Francis
O'Dowd or
Dowd. His parents were Daniel
O'Dowd and Anna Rose
Reilly. His siblings that we know of were Julia, Mary, and Phillip. He came to
America April 1869 and landed in
New York. He worked in the Iron Foundary in Massachussets. He married
Bridget Hannah Cusick in 1868-1870 before coming to
Iowa. He was from
Cavan County in Ireland and
Bridget was from County
Clair over by gallway bay. We know that there was a song written about him when he was in Ireland. If you have any information we would really appreciate it.
