Your notation regarding two Mahers marrying because they had the same last name jogged my memory.My gggrandmother's maiden name was Maher & she married a man with the same last name.I was told they came from County Cork, Ireland & that she followed him over to America & worked in New York as an upstairs maid.Their daughter, Mary Elizabeth Maher was my maternal grandmother.I do know she had at least one brother named Charles Maher.
He lived in New York city & was married to an Irish gal with a delightful brogue, Aunt Bea.
They had one daughter, Eleanor.Does any of this help?
