For those researching Shea/OShea/Shay/Shee American ancestors a new database at Ancestry.com contains all of the passport applications
(supposedly) from 1795-1925). These documents were prepared by
the applicant and are probably more accurate than the census.
I found some very vital information concerning my maternal grandfather when he applied for a passport after living in the USA
for 40 years. The information in the 1900, 1910, 1920, and 1930 census databases concerning his age were all wrong.
You can check it out at your local library.

Hi My name is Catherine O’Shea Powers Landon
Looking for my father Terrence O’Shea,who has brothers Micheal and Dennis,a sister Sheila, there are other brothers and sisters, unsure of the names, one of Terry’s son’s called Vincent another son must be around 53,Terry’s father would be called Joseph O’Shea.My Mothers name is Eileen Powers.
We lived in London,and later I moved to Stevenage around 1962.Terry’s brother married Pat,who had four children,Barry,Christine,Jeff,John.
Sorry only a small amount of information.
