Aug 1864 in Leitrim who emigrated to the US in 1870 and married John Gough prior to 1890. You've posted parents as follows: John McKiernan and Catherine Brannigan John McKiernan and Catherine Finley Michael McKiernan and Catherine Hunt Michael McKiernan and Bridget Owen Michael McKiernan and Ann Gilheany Mary Reilly and Lawrence McKiernan It would not be possible for all these couples to have had the same daughter's birth. Could you clarify the reasons for the various parents listed? Do you know where in County Leitrim she was born? Regards. Eilís O'Hara Ireland
