Malloy, Sharkey , Wilson, possibly from Dublin, Ireland
I am looking for a connection to the Sharkey and Malloy familes possibly from Dublin, Ireland. My husband's great-grandfather was James Wilson, born in Ireland about 1862. Don't have much information about James. He married Mary Sharkey who was born about May 1861 in Ireland possibly in Dublin. According to her death certificate her parents were James Sharkey and Margaret Malloy. Mary Sharkey came to the USA about 1884 and married James Wilson. They lived in Philadelphia, PA. James was a teamster and died in August 1909. Mary (Sharkey) Wilson died in November 1931. Mary possibly had a brother named Ted (could he be a Theodore or a Thaddeus?) who also came to the USA. Mary (Sharkey) and James Wilson had ten children--all born in Philadelphia, PA. They were: Margaret (1886), James (1887), Mary, Robert (1891), Peter (1892), Anna (1894), Francis (1897), John (1899), Joseph (1902), and Elizabeth (1904). The sons were also teamsters and had a coal and/or ice delivery business in Philadelphia. Other related surnames are: Harrington, Colbert, Fitzpatrick, Henderson, and McGuire. Would like to compare notes with anyone having any information about these families.
