Hi! I am trying to locate information on Michael Murnane who lived in Rensselaer Co. in the city of Troy. Michael was born in Tipperary Ireland and came with his parents, James and Mary (Coughlin) Murnane, and 7 siblings, settling in Chateauagy, NY in 1847-8. The family history says that Michael went to live in Troy. No other mention was made regarding him. According to the 1880 US census reports there was a Michael Murnane who married Alice abt.1858 living at 3 VanBuren (Street ?) . There were seven children listed in this census: Katie(age 21),b.abt.1859; John (19), b.1861; James (17),b.1863; Harry (10), b.1870; Charles (8), b.1872; Mary (5), b. 1875; Edward (3), b.1877. The Troy City Directory says that this Michael died 3/2/1881.I would appreciate any information about this family as I feel that this family is the one I have been searching for. I would also like to contact any descendants of Michael Murnane. THANKS! Joe Murnane, Williamson,NY - JMurnane77@aol.com
