Brophy : Ct & NYC 1870's - 1930's
I am looking for information about a Brophy family on my paternal grandmother's(Irene) side. Mark is listed on her marriage license as her father. So far I've found Mark in the 1900 census living on Christopher ST. in NYC with wife Rose, son Joseph, twins Willie & Rosie, daughter & son-in-law Annie & Joseph Duffy, granddaughter Florence.
In the 1930's Census, Joseph Brophy( Mark's brother??) is living with his neice ( my grandmother) at 172nd St in Manhattan.
Then backtracking I've found what i believe is Mark's family in Connecticut's 1880 census ( Middletown). They were:
Bernard b. 1841 Ireland, Kate (his wife) Harris b. 1842 Ireland they were married 2/08/1864 @ Viccarstown Laoighis Ireland;
their children: Mark 14 (b. 1866 ) Ireland , John 13 ( b.1867?) Ireland , Annie 11(b. 1869??) Ireland, Maria 9 (b. 1871 ??) Ireland, William 9 (b. 1871??)Ireland, Joseph 7 (b. 1873??) Ireland, Kate 5, (b. 1875??) Ct, Michael 3 (b. 1877??) Ct.
I think I've also found a record of Kate and the children born in Ireland coming into NY August 19, 1872 on th SS Baltic.
I know this is very long, but I couldn't decide what to leave in or leave out - so I left in almost everyhting I've found in the past year. What I initially knew about this side of the family was only from stories my father told us, we don't have any pictures or family papers.
