Hi Riobard, Do you know if Maurice Lowney had a sister Mary? I finally found a reference to Cornelius Harrington's mother -- it was listed as Mary Lowney. Cornelius was born around 1836 or 1837 (still don't know the town). Kindest regards, Betsy Harrington In a message dated 4/4/2009 3:13:30 A.M.

Hope you don't mind. In Holy Cross Cemetery, Malden, Mass. there's a headstone with the following inscription: Hannah wife of Maurice Lowney died January 8, 1877, aged 63 years born in Bearehaven, parish of Kilmanna Co. Cork, Ireland Since the headstone is so old the elements have done a job on it. In time the inscription will disappear. I would just like to know that, if someone is interested in Hannah, they would know where to find her or at least her final resting place. Thank you.
