Trying to find 'my' Captain Patrick Deasy, from Ireland to Chicago (died May 15, 1921) approx 50 years old. I have found 26 Patrick Deasy's in Ireland in the right birth date range, and most of my Irish DNA seems to be from the Mayo area. But which Patrick is my Patrick?? He starts working with the Chicago Fire Department in December of 1893 and marries Mamie McGillen in 1895. He died in the line of duty May 1921 and is buried in the McGillen family plot in Calvary Cemetery on the Evanston/Chicago boarder. I also seem to be related to the descendants of William Deasy, also died in Chicago about 1917.
