Amy, Sorry, I could find no record of your Sweeneys in St. Mary's records. If they lived on Burden Avenue, they would have attended St. Michael's as you indicated or even St. Joseph's. You might want to drop a line to both these churches to see if they can help you. St. Joseph's is just beginning to be transcribed, but unfortunately, the folks at St. Michael's have not allowed ACGS to come in and copy the records.
