Hi Marie,
My great grandmother was Ellen Maher married to Dennis Tracy.She came from Tipperray to Chicago, Illinois.Family does say that she came to Indiana first but I do not know.Ellen's mother was Mary Harrold and her father was Patrick Maher.Mary Harrold' parents were Michael Harrold and Mary Maher b. abt. 1799 d. 1893
My O'Reilly's come in from my Dad, Russell Bray, side of the family.His mother was Sarah (Sadie) O'Reilly.Sadie married John Bray of Ishpeming, Michigan of Cornwall, England decent.
The O'Reilly farm is still in Omro, Wisconsin where Sadie was born.Her parents Alexander O'Reilly and Mariah Flannigan were married shortly after he returned from the Civil War, wounded and a hero.Alex's parents Dennis 1808=1892, O'Reilly and Margaret Hollerin came from Hollymount, County Mayo, Ireland.
I have been there but have not found anything else.
Dennis and Margaret O'Reilly are buried in St. Thomas Aquinas Church cemetray, Omro, Wisconsin with their son Alex and his two wives Mariah and Alice Kelly.
I have all the dates and am back to Margaret and Dennis O'Reilly buried 1877 and 1882.Dennis was born in 1808.
Let me know if you need anything else and I will ask my Mom if she knows of any Cuddihy cousins.
