My gggrandfather Richard Dooly was born 1804 in Queens County. He married Catherine Hickey, born 25 Dec 1810, I assume in Queens County. She is the daughter of Patrick Hickey and ?? Conway. Richard and Catherine had at least three sons before immigrating to the US: Patrick, born 19 Nov 1939 Thomas, born 4 Mar 1842 John M., born 28 Jun 1844 Because of the gap in the year of birth, there may have been more children born in Ireland who did not survive. The story is that Richard and Catherine moved to Wisconsin, USA about 1846 and their passage was paid by her brother, whose name may have been James Hickey. Richard and Catherine had a son Richard born 25 Oct 1846 in East Troy, Walworth County, WI. I have found a James Hickey who was born 1 Jan 1818 who was buried in Lake Geneva, Walworth County in 1891 so this may be the brother. A Patrick Hickey, born 6 Mar 1812, died in the home of Richard and Catherine's daughter in Green County, WI, so this is most likely also a brother. Have no further information for them from Ireland but lots from Wisconsin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Mary Alice Dooley MADooley@email.msn.com
