Hi Laurie, I'm originally from Lowell and also have a Catherine Sullivan from Cork (b. 1875 Kiltrasna townland, Adrigole Parish, Beara Peninsula). She married Edward Penney in Lowell in 1902. They ended up in Tewksbury. The following two Lowell web sites might be of some assistance: http://www.stpatrickcemetery.com (Click on the "Genealogy" link) http://library.uml.edu/clh/GenRes.Html (Click on the "LOWELL - VITAL RECORDS 1865-1970" link) Regards, Michael -----Original Message----- >From: Laurie Stern <slostar2003@gotsky.com> >Sent: Sep 12, 2008 1:01 AM >To: BEARA@rootsweb.com >Subject: [BEARA] Sullivan > >Dear All >I am looking for my Great Grandmother Catherine Sullivan. >(I do not have a branch name) >Born May 1874 in "County Cork" Ireland >Immigrated 1887 to the USA (13 years old) >Ended up in Lowell Massachusetts (?
