Mary was my grandmother Sarah's sister. Sarah died when my father was about 9. Know one in the family knows anything about this side of the family. I know from previous help from this site that Mary and her husband Michael were on the 1920 census in Brookline, Boston and I believe other family members travelled out to see her and some stayed on. Other family members were sister Bridget, Annie , Rose, Nancy and Cathrine.( Catherine I believe became a Nun). The brothers were Eugene, John and Dennis. They were all from Clonmany Co. Donegal Ireland. Their parents were Dennis and Mary Doherty.
Any pointers or help gratefully received.
Many thanks
Gracelands

Thanks for your time and effort, I did know some of what you have printed as you say from previous help (sorry I do no know how to copy from one email to another - I am looking at getting some training on the computer).
I am a complete and utter novice and I am trying to find my way round, I do not know how or where you and the others were able to access this information I assume there is a site I can contact or pay for help.
I suppose in answer to your question on what do I need to know now is really anything as I do not know anything about this family before or after they went to America.
Sorry I did not mean to cause extra work or confusion and do appreciate the enormous amount of help you and the others do for people like myself.
Thanks once again,
Gracelands
