    3. Peter Bradley died in Saratoga, Minnesota, USA, in May, 1862, leaving nothing but an almost illegible headstone claiming he was born in County Donegal (perhaps in a place called Devlinreagh, although most of the letters of the town are eroded away), perhaps in late 1780 (dates eroded badly as well). He came to the United States at a young age, and, according to her own claim, had a daughter in December 1812, probably in Connecticut, who for whatever reason went by the name of Mary Bisbee. She was married in Erie Co., New York, in June of 1831, to Henry Ingalls, and they later moved to Minnesota. He does not appear in any Minnesota census I have found, but is buried in a plot in Saratoga near Mary (Bisbee) Ingalls. A somewhat vague reference in a letter of her son-in-law accepts the relationship, as I read it. If anyone can find the least clue to Peter's existence, I should be most grateful, as he would be my gg-grandfather, and the only known Irishman in the clan.
