Joanna O'Rourke - Co Limerick
I'm researching my mother's side of the family. Her g. grandfather is Simon McMahon of Ennis, Co. Clare, b. 1829.He sailed to the US in 1847 at age 18. He eventually settled in Michigan. He married Joanne O'Rourke who was born in Ballenaty, Co. Limerick. She came to Quebec at age 12, spent 5 years and then moved to New York. I don't have any info on how they met or when they were married.
Let me know if any of this links with someone out there.
Cheers,
Mike
