Re: MCCARTHY,Daniel; IRL>NY,USA; c.1810-1884 Hi Ed, I have a Catherine McCarthy, from Ire>Wale>Buff, NY>ca 1880? Her father was Jeremiah McCarthy,Co.Cork, who died in a coal mining accident when she was young. Mothers name was Catherine (? Sweeney) b. ca 1818. Have her on 1871 census Swansea Wales as widow with Con & Cath. Catherine McCarthy m. Cornelius O'leary who was a sailor from Co Cork. They settled in Buff. NY. We know Catherine was an only child, but could your Daniel have a brother name Jeremiah? Naming practises were used back then and I see he names a son Jeremiah. Fillows4@aol.com
