Phylliss:
I do not know if this is your family or not, but what makes me think it could be is that a Margaret Sullivan is living with them:
1870 Canterbury, CT Census
John Shea - born Ireland 1833
Sarah Shea - born Ireland 1840
Michael Shea - CT 1862
John Shea - CT 1863
Timothy - CT 1866
Daniel - 1867
Margaret Sullivan - 1810 - Ireland.
You mentioned that Sarah Shea was a Sullivan.This could well be her mother.
In 1880 they are still in Canterbury, CT only indexed under "Shew."Additional children are Margaret, James and Mary Ann.Does this sound familiar to you?
