In the course of my investigations into the Duffields, I found an article that appeared to provide information about my ancestors, but took some sleuthing to confirm.
I thought I’d be stuck in Rhode Island and never able to trace my Duffield family back to Ireland. With just one record, I was able to break through that brick wall.
James Alexander Duffield emigrated with his parents from Ireland to the United States at age 2 and was orphaned at the age of 18.
Samuel and Lizzie Duffield left their native Ireland with their young family for the United States, landing in Providence, Rhode Island.
