This is a real "reach" but I have a Patrick DeCourcy, born about 1821, we think in Co Cork.He came to the US sometime before 1854 and was thought to have married a Margaret ? who was born in Boston.Whatever happened, the next time we find him was 1854 when he married Catherine Fitzgerald in Franklin Co (Columbus), OH.By 1860 they were living in Central Illinois (Decatur/Harristown) and he was working for a railroad as a laborer.Several children were born to them, many of whom eventually moved to Texas.Most of the boys were associated with various railroads.
I have no idea how many or if Patrick had brothers or sisters, nor when he came to the US.
Let me know if any of this might fit with your line.
Pat
