Does anyone on this list have any knowledge of Thomas HYLAND and his family?

Briefly Thomas, the son of Patrick Hyland & Johanna Lee, was born in
Mitchelstown, Co Cork, Ireland on Aug 5, 1899.

According to the Ellis Island Immigration site, he arrived at Ellis Island
on November 12, 1920 and was intending to travel to St Louis, MO.

The 1930 Census on Ancestry shows him living just across the river at Henrietta Avenue, East St Louis Township, St Clair County, Illinois together with wife Margaret H and daughter Mary Margaret.

The SSDI shows that Thomas HYLAND, with the correct birth date, died in May 1979. His wife Margaret (nee CULLINANE) HYLAND died in Belleville Apr 12, 1988.

Subsequent obituary notices for both Thomas and Margaret show that in addition to daughter Mary Margaret (Mrs Leo Burke) there was also a son, Robert.

Any help in tracing the descendants of Thomas and Margaret would be much appreciated.
