John and Mary (Dwyer) Hyland married 1853 this area. Apparently had 2 children John born 1855 and Margaret born 1859. Then migrating to the US where they settled in Illinois. John died in 1878 in Kansas USA a widower leaving 6 children: Margaret b.1862, Elizabeth b.1863, James b.1864, Mary b.1867 (my ancestor) married my Millard Filmore Coleman , Thomas Patrick b.1869 and Katherin b.1872 KS USA. Where did the first two children John and Margaret disappear to? Did they die early on and then John and Mary came to the States? Can anyone help clear up this mystery? Thanks
