One of my g-g-grandmothers was Joanna Mahoney Lyons (1812-1879). She had at least two sisters that I know of. Her parents names were John and Catharine Mahoney. I am trying to find the origin of the Mahoneys in Ireland. I suspect it was in the area of Bandon, County Cork. The Mahoneys settled in Boston, Massachusetts.
One of Joanna's sisters was Ellen Mahoney, 1826-1895. She married in Boston 1st John Deacy, 1826-1852 and 2nd John Drynan, 1832-1901. Her daughter, Annie Deacy, 1847-1913, married Thomas F. McCormick, 1845-1923) of Boston. Their daughter, Helen Gertrude McCormick, 1882-1918, married Anthony Edward Navin. One of their daughters was Sr. Joseph Anthony of the Medical Missionaries of Mary who died in 1991.
Another Mahoney was Catharine Mahoney Hart, (1831-1903). She married (Possibly James or Martin) Hart. She adopted a daughter, Margaret Desmond who took the name of Margaret Hart. Margaret Desmond Hart later married a Daniel Mahoney. Margaret Desmond Hart Mahoney's sister Ellen was the 2nd wife of John Drynan. A third Desmond sister was Nora Desmond who married James Brennan.
I'd be interested in corresponding with any descendants of these other lines.
