Mary had so much information, and I wasn't sure where it all ended up. I'm not sure who Eileen Carroll is, could you help me out? I would like to get a copy of the obituary of Michael Morrissey from you. He moved to Minnesota to live with his sister and her husband after he and Mary seperated. He died in Minneapolis and was buried in Prescott, Wisconsin in his sister's family plot. I have pictures of the graves and a copy of Michael's death certificate. Would like to share more information, please email me personally.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Hi1.2ACEB/324.1 Message Board Post: Dosen't appear as you got any responces to this message from anyone. I'm related to Mary through our common Ryan lineage. I met Mary at the John Ryan reunion in 1995 and I have copies of a number of her letters, etc. pertaining to the Ryan lineage. As you probably know, Adorine has since passed away. Adorine got all of Mary's genealogy collection initially. I believe Eileen (Cain) Carroll has some of it now, but not sure who else may have the material pertaining specifically to the Morrissey lineage. Adorine sent me a couple of things that I was specifically interested in the year befor she died. I did find an obituary for Michael Morriseey in 1913 in Minneapolis that indicated he was buried in Wisconsin. Why in Wisconsin????? At any rate, lets communicate.,
