Brian,Thank You for your interest. At this time I am not aware of his Occupation.He must of been well-off to bring 4 children as well as other family members over to USA. My G-G-Grandmother passed away in 1868 or 1869,and according to family (not a reliable source,I understand) it couldn't be any later than 1871. I found out something interesting though. My G-Grandmother Isabelle Killey...when she was wed the name on the Marriage license is KILLAY-which could be phonetically spelled. FYI. Anyway Thanks again!
