Where are the alphabetized folders and how do I get there? Thanks- sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'm missing something.

I would really appreciate some help if possible. I have been doing research on my own for about 8 months now. I am looking to find the place of birth for my husbands great grandfather. I have quite a bit of info but have hit a wall with the location. This is the info I already have:
Great Grandad:
Patrick J. Sullivan DOB 2/27/1861 Co. Cork
He arrived in Boston on 5/1/1883. The only ship I can find out of Ireland, Queenstown, that year to Boston is the Catalonia which stopped in Liverpool as well.
He was Naturalized 9/6/1890. He married Annie Mulcahey in 1895 and died in Portland Maine October of 1899.
His parents were Jeremiah Sullivan and Margaret Sullivan. I know this is a lot to ask for help but I am at a dead end and would REALLY love to get this done for my husband and his family. Please feel free to email me if you have any ideas or help.
Thanks a Ton!!!!

My Irish ancestors emigrated to Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, before coming to the US. They were:
Henry and Ann Gibson, supposedly of County Fermanagh and Donegal
Dennis Cain
Catherine Mulhearn/Mulhains

I haven't found the exact immigration dates for them yet, but I'm still searching!

I assume I have Irish ancestors as people always say I look Irish, not sure what they mean, as I have red hair/green eyes/ fair skin, I guess that's what Irish look like. My great grandpa Rivers had red hair. His father had black hair, I do not know what color hair his Mom had, but her maiden name was Sullivan. Her father and grandfather were in Green and Hardin Co., KY. in 1800's, and somewhere in Virginia before that. I believe William Sullivan wife's mother was Jane Mann and the Mann Family came from Ireland, but Mann doesn't even sound like an Irish name, I'm always looking for my Irish roots.

I looking for information on John Love. He married Mary Campbell. They had a daughter Sophia Love. She was born in 1824 in County Donegel

Hi, I am looking for James Thompson, supposedly came to Canada with his brother, where they separated and lost touch. He married Dinah Bryon, who, it seems, came to Canada in 1849, possibly from Tyrone, Ireland. James also came from Ireland. I don't know if they were married prior to arriving here. But did start their family in early 1850's. He was born abt. 1828 and she abt. 1818.
