I didn't know her maiden name. They were married in 1858 not 1837. He was born in 1832. They arrived in USA in 1848. His father's name was Thomas. thomas' first wife was Margaret O'Lochlan. After coming to USA Thomas remarried-Bridget McDonough. Thomas and Margaret had 3 children who lived, Bridget, Malachi and Margaret. Thomas and bridget had 4 children, Ann, John, Catherine and Patrick. Thomas might have been called Pat and that causes confusion. Thomas was my gggrandfathers brother and the first Irishman to come to Carrollton. One of your cousins (closer than I am) has Malachi's obituary. Mike Carmody
