I am in need of a lookup, as well. I have contacted St. Joseph's in the past, but they were not particularly helpful. No one actually did a lookup. I would be extremely grateful if someone could do so. I am searching for a birth or Roman Catholic baptism for MARY ANN KENNEDY, born 3 Nov, 1853, most likely in St. Joseph's parish. Her parents were Patrick (?) and Catherine Teef(e)y Kennedy, both Irish immigrants. Catherine came most likely from the Birdhill region of County Tipperary. It is probable that the couple came to the US already married, but it is also possible that they met here. In that case, there might be a marriage on record, as well. It is possible they may have lived close to Schenectady at one time. Patrick died some time between 1853 and 1860, because by the latter date, Catherine was in Chicago married to John Maher (Meagher). She went on to have several more children with him, and she died in 1912 in Chicago. I have found no record of Patrick's death. Mary Ann was my great-grandmother, and she married Michael Dalton in Chicago and has seven children. Thanks, Kathy **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
