Ellen and Mary Doherty from Co Cork
Ellen and Mary Doherty were two of three daughters of Neil Doherty and his wife Mary or Margaret(surname in question, but may have been Bradley?) They were born between 1860-1863 or so.
Bridget had gotten married in Jan 1881 in Co Donegal(even though they came from Co Cork) at Sacred heart Church in Carndonagh. to John F O'Donnell also from Co Cork, son of John O'Donnell and Elizabeth Carney, and he had 2 brothers Peter and Patrick.
What I'd like to know here is : There was an Ellen and Mary Doherty on the SS Austrian that left Londonderry and arrived in Boston May (I think) 1883.Also on that ship was my future grandmother and their cousin or some relation. named Mary Ann O'Donnell.
I'd like to one find out if these Ellen and Mary Doherty' were indeed Bridget Doherty's sisters. and then find out anything else that can be learned about them. Where they lived(I thought perhpas with their sister and husband in Stoneham Ma-Middlesex County) However I'm not sure.
Bridget and her husband had 3 children while living in Stoneham and then moved into Boston's North End.
I'd also like to if possible find out where Mary Ann O'Donnell lived upon arrival as she was only about 9 1/2 or 10(some records say she was 18, but I think that was a mistake on whoever did the writing).Their was A Bridget Doherty traveling with Mary Ann O'Donnell, and I think she could have been her God Mother, but not sure.
Primary interest here though are Ellen and Mary, and then anything else is secondary.
Thank you so very much.I was thinking of census help but I don't have any access to MA census (or any other).
Stoneham-Middlesex Co, Boston-Suffolk County.
Thanks again
Barbara
