It is thought that they were married in Ireland but we are not sure.The Leitrim Genealogy Center has a marriage cert. for a Michael and Rose Darcy in 1844 but this does not apprear to be them because their first child born in America (in Chicago, Illinois) was born in 1856.Their youngest child, Hugh was born in 1868. I suppose it is possible but seems unlikely that 12 years elapsed before a first child.We are assuming that their children: Mary, John, Thomas, Michael and Hugh were their only children but they might have had children born in Ireland who did not survive to accompany them to America. Any information would be appreciated.
