I have an Ellen Francis Redington in Boston, MA in 1880 married to Hugh P. Devine.
Ellen and Hugh are my great-great-great grandparents.Some censuses show Ellen as "Helen", specifically the 1880 census.The 1880 census says she was born in Ireland and gives her age as 31, which puts her birthday at 1849.Her son James Devine was born in 1865 in Massachusetts, so we know that she immigrated between 1849 and 1865.It is quite probably that she immigrated to America with her parents during that time.Does any of this sound familiar?
