I am at my wits end researching my gg grandmother, Margret CLANCY. She is listed on the NY marriage certificate as the mother of Elizabeth SIMONS-daughter of Margaret and George SIMONS. Elizabeth was born in Rochester (NY, I believe) and was 21 years of age when she married Ferdinand HANTKE, my g grandfather. That would put Elizabeth being born about 1839 so Margaret was born about 1809-1819 I presume. Elizabeth had two siblings that I know of, Mary J(ane) and Zachariah SIMONS. She listed 82 Delancy St as the residence at time of marriage which is where Ferdinand lived. I found oin Mary J's death certificate that Margaret was born in Ireland, but on a census it stated parent born in Ireland. I surmise it was Ireland. George was from Germany. Can anyone help me with this elusive Margaret CLANCY and see if you possibly might have a Margaret CLANCY in your trees or research. For some reason, I think he died and she remarried or that they divorced. Just a premonition. I need to knock down this brick wall. Any and all help, or ideas, is more than appreciated. I am willing to reimburse for any help. Susan
