Thanks for the info.  I did find the birth and death information for Patrick Cahill.  He passed away at the age of one. 

I haven't been able to find any record of Laurence Cahill's father's birth so I am not sure if he was born in Ireland or India.  Also not sure if his mother's maiden name is Pannell or Parnell.  She was mentioned in the marriage information for my grandparents and was deceased at this time 1923.

I have a copy of a will for a Hanoria/Honora Cahill as she left some money to my mother back in 1944/45.  My mother had never been told anything about her biological father until this time.  I am not sure how Hanoria Cahill is contacted to my family tree. I found  information on Ancestry.ca about her marriage to a Michael Cahill.  Her maiden name is Hierlihy.  In her will she stated that she was leaving the commission of her late husband Major Cahill to his nephew so I am assuming he was in the British Army.

Any assist would be great appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi from Canada

I am trying to trace my Cahill family and am not sure where to look.  My grandfather was Laurence Frank Cahill born in Quetta, West Bengal, India in 1893.  His parents were Michael Cahill and Annie Louise Pannell.  He was employed from 1908 - 1920 by Cannock & Com.  in Limerick, Ireland.  He arrived in St. John, New Brunswick in 1921.  He listed on his immigration papers that his father was Major Michael Cahill living at Loomdula Cottage in Askeaton, Limerick Co.  I found on Ancestry.ca a listing for a Michael Cahill 22 Dec 1901 Warrant Office, Ordnance Dept. Northern Army, Fort William, Quetta, India  I believe this is my great-grandfather.  My grandfather married Beatrice Kay in Montreal, Quebec in 1923 and had a daughter in 1927.  He died the next year in 1928 in Montreal of TB. His brother Stanislaus(Stanley) John Cahill was born 1899 in Dundur, Jammu and Kashmir, India.  He came to Canada in 1920 and was living in Quebec. He married in 1923 and died in 1924 from TB.   

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
