thank you so much every body, for garner info, had lost them too.

Not exactly getting anywhere with Cornelius are we?

Have you found what happened to his brother Paul(or rather half brother I would think)?

If Cornelius moved to the continent or Ireland we couldn't find him on shipping lists, and there appears to be a France connection. There's no death I can see for his father Peter either.
