I Am Eager to Learn What Happened to John Flannery Born C1851 IN Ireland and His Wife Mary Nee Burns Born 1849 IN Wolverhampton as Far as I Know They ...
They were John born 1869, Thomas born 1871, James born 1874, Martin born 1875, Patrick born 1877, Peter born 1878, Catherine born 1879, and Margaret born 1880.
In the 1881 UK Census Mary is a widow, her and her eight children are living at 32 Holloway Bank, Wednesbury, West Bromwich, Staffordshire. Also there is my Gt, Gt Grandfather Michael Burns and his brother Thomas, they are Mary's brothers.
After this time I have hit a brick wall in my search for Mary and her children.
I would be grateful for any information as to what happened to them after 1881.
Hi, I have seen a family tree on Ancestry which seems to be the same Mary and John Flannery you are seeking. The person has Mary marrying a second time to a Thomas Flemming and immigrating to Scranton, Pennsylvania in 1895. Marriage date is listed as 1887 in West Bromwich, Staffordshire. It also records Patrick's death as 14 Jul 1897 Scranton, and Catherine's as 16 Jul 1921 Scranton.Hope that is of some help.
Hi, thank you for your information regarding Mary Flannery and her family. I have found a United States Census 1900 in FamilySearch which records Mary and Thomas Fleming and their daughters Bridget and Mary, and Mary's children James, Peter, and Margaret from her first marriage to John Flannery, living in Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Once again thank you for your valuable information which seems to have demolished one of the brick walls I have come up against in fourteen years of researching my family tree.
