Irish/UK based Sharkey - stonemasons!
John Sharkey (b 1830) first surfaced in Killenaule Tipperary as a church building stonemason. Married Mary Moran there 1860.
Next surfaced in Birkenhead near Liverpool.
James Sharkey (my grandfather) born 1864. Brother John Sharkey born there 1864. John Sharkey (Snr.) died 1864.
Widow (Mary Moran) and family returned to Tipperary.
Research revealed a brother James in Livepool (1860s) who was also a stone mason as was their father James (born about 1800) Also a sister Elizabeth married to a stonemason (Croshaw).
Intertested in hearing from Sharkey families who have any traditions or folk memories of stonemason ancestors.
