Yes, the 'original' Thomas was born in Ireland.This family started out in Saugerties, NY upon arriving in the USA.Your Patrick MAHER maybe the one known as "Digger" MAHER - although I had that branch going to NJ not CT."Digger" entered the construction business once the quarry work started to decline.We think that Digger MAHER and Thomas MAHER may have been brothers.There may have been a 3rd brother named Louis (Lewis?) MAHER.Louis supposedly went to the Carney, NJ area.We have NOT been able to tie these 3 men together as yet.Any of this sounds familiar?Your Elizabeth is not in my database, but that doesn't mean she shouldn't be!
The orginal Thomas was born in Roscrea, Tipperary County, Ireland ca. 1834.He died in Boston ca 1890.I have NOT been able to verify the Ireland information.
