Fitzpatrick, Marcella-Navan, Co Meath
Seeking information for Marcella Fitzpatrick who was born about 1815 in Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland.Her father may have been a wealthy ship chandler.She may have had 2 sisters.
She married Peter A. Sheil, Jan. 28, 1837 at the Parish Church of Trim (Peter was from Trim).This marriage was not approved by her father because Peter was a tailor and beneath the status of her father.Peter and Marcella had 2 sons in Ireland (Richard (1838) and James (1839)).They immigrated to America via Liverpool June of 1840.By June of 1841 they settled in Auburn, NY, where there 3rd son, Dennis Richard, was born.Their other 4 children were Mary, Margaret, Ellen, and Thomas.
I'm aware that children were named after their grandparents, so maybe Peter and Marcella's parents may have had names such as:Richard, James, Dennis, Thomas, Mary, Margaret, Ellen.
