Thank you for the reply!
I see that I had a typo on my original message... the Final Destination of Catherine Molloy... I listed as: "535 Pulaski Ave, Philadelphia, PA" and you are correct that the address was: 5350 Poliski Ave, Philadelphia, PA. When I typed this address into GOOGLE Maps "as is" it came back with... Did you mean: "5350 Pulaski Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19144" and I thought it was possible that the manifest spelled the address location PULASKI as POLISKI in error. But, I see that GOOGLE does have a map to the above address here is the link (I hope this works): http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&q=5350+Pulaski+Ave,+Philadelphia,+Philadelphia,+Pennsylvania+19144&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=30.323858,78.75&ie=UTF8&cd=1&geocode=FWPEYgIdhemE-w&split=0&ll=40.027394,-75.175387&spn=0.003574,0.009613&t=h&z=17

I also have the 1901 Ireland Census:
Meenacharvy, Glencolumbkille Parish, County of Donegal Ireland. Head of Household NORAH MOLLOY Age 60, not married, living w/ her Nephew, Bernard Molloy(40), his wife Catherine(40); their children, Margaret(14), Mary(12), Cassie(10), Bernard(8), Hannah(6), Anne(5), Bridget(4).
Note: Bernard+Catherine are my 2nd Great-Grandparents, their daughter Margaret(age 14) is my Great-Grandmother and Cassie(age 10) is my Great-GrandAunt.

I know that my Great-Grandmother, Margaret Malloy(Molloy), also went to Philadelphia, PA, although I have been unable to locate her ship manifest. I found her 1912 Philadelphia marriage record and the 1930 Census in Chicago, IL shows she immigrated in 1908. Margaret was was abandoned by her 1st husband and he was Declared Dead after missing for 7-years and she remarried my Great-Grandfather, Richard M. Owen in 1920.

Also, Margaret had an Aunt Mary+Uncle John that immigrated from Ireland and they also went to Philadelphia, PA... but I do not have an information as to where??? So I think I need to persue the Philadelphia connection to further my research. The Aunt+Uncle eventually went to Michigan & Illinois (I have their death records).

I have a letter dated Sept 1932 written by Margaret (Malloy) Owen that reads: cousin Paddei Doherty was burried Friday...he had a wife+6 children. I assume that PADDEI could be a nickname for PATRICK, and I found several records for a Patrick Hugh Doherty, born 1888 in Chicago, IL. I don't know if this is a positive match, although... he married Julia (nee: Cannon) 1911 in Chicago, IL and CANNON is the maiden name of Margaret's mother Catherine, wife of Bernard Malloy!

I hope I didn't ramble to much :-) I can share more details that I found on the Doherty's that right now I don't know exactly how they connect. My research with this new surname has only been about one month so far.
