Any information on the following surnames will be greatly appreciated: LIVINGSTON(E); THOMPSON or(THOMSON?); CONNELL or (O'CONNELL)
I am looking for any information on my gg grandparents: JAMES EDWARD CONNELL(or O'CONNELL?), born in ? Ireland, on 03/19/1837. He immigrated to the USA in ? . His citizenship papers were signed in Hamilton City,(Cinncinatti)Ohio on 10/08/1842. He married CASSANDRA MAY THOMPSON(or THOMSON?), born on 09/24/1840 in England, who lived in Atlanta GA and Cinncinatti. Both are buried in Oaklawn Cemetery in Atlanta GA. They had six children: MARY; CATHERINE; ALICE LORETTA; ISABELLE MARGERETTE--my grandmother who married THOMAS ABRAHAM PRIM of Atlanta GA; JEANETTE; and ROBERT.
I am also looking for information on the parents(my ggg grandparents) of JAMES EDWARD CONNELL and CASSANDRA MAY THOMPSON. I have no information on JAMES EDWARD CONNELL's parents, but assume the verbal info that they were from Ireland.
CASSANDRA MAY THOMPSON was the daughter of THOMAS THOMPSON and ANNE (ANNIE or AGNES) LIVINGSTON(E), both of England.

ANNE LIVINSTON(E) returned to England to take care of an estate just prior to, or during the Civil War, at which time she was in early mid-life pregnancy. She died while giving birth to a son ROBERT LIVINGSTON(E)THOMPSON, who remained in England, and was raised by relatives Surname ?). Family contact with ROBERT LIVINGSTON(E)THOMPSON and with relatives raising him was lost over the years. Verbal info is that ANNE was the daughter of a physician. I have no info on the parents of THOMAS THOMPSON.
THOMAS THOMPSON, from England, was accidently killed in Atlanta GA on 07/01/1863 while teaching ladies how to defend themselves from the enemy prior to the Atlanta Civil War Fire. His guestimated age at death is recorded as 46. He is also buried in Oaklawn Cemeteryin Atlanta GA. CASSANDRA MAY THOMPSON CONNELL raised the younger siblings.
Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
