I have further information on these two... Patrick Coleman and Sarah Devlin (og).
Sarah Devlin was the daughter of John and Bridget(nee Campbell) and was born on 25th July 1869.
Patrick Coleman was the son of Michael and Bridget(nee Taylor) and was born on 9th March 1867.
They were married in Ardboe, Co Tyrone, Ireland at Mullinahoe Chapel on 22nd September 1892
Their first port of call in USA was Rochester New York. They sailed on the Sircassia and landed on 18th October 1892. On the journey they were accompanied by brothers Pat and Joe Taylor, cousins of Pat Coleman.
From what I gather now (courtesy of Warren Coleman) Pat and Sarah had two children, Bernard born 1895 and June/Jane born 1896. It would also appear that Sarah died sometime befor 1910 as Patrick is down as a widower in the census of that year.
Bernard(at least)subsequently lived at 102, Huron St in Brooklyn and my grandfather Peter Devlin visited and indeed lived there for a time in 1922 and possibly on other occasions afterwards.
I would like to know if anyone has any information on this family and whether there are any descendants alive today.
