Bob, First off, thank you for bringing this to my attention! I'm looking for any information or descendants. I'd love to see anything about their lives in NYC from IRE. I'm not sure if any of the family left in IRE came to USA although I have them somewhat documented. Edward (1848-1915) m 1869 Johanna O'HARA (1851-1914).
