Hi Guys sorry it took so long getting back, i'm sure they married in NY i'm told she went over when she was 15 (that is about1898)
Family members mention the name Little falls but her husband Francis owned garages in ?Bronx.

I'm looking for any info, that is there time in Clare or the US, I cant find birth records for the girls born in NY either would love some guidance.

Best wishes Maria

Have you found them in any U.S. census records? Your 1st post says married c1897 and latest says Mary went to U.S. c1898.
Start with the proven facts and work back.
How long married according to 1911 census?
Have you searched for Mary, and Francis, arriving in U.S.? Ellis Island most likely place of arrival (www.ellisisland.org covers N.Y. 1892-1924).
How many children according to 1911 census? if eldest child born 1903 then 18907/8 seems possibly a bit early for marriage date (especially is Mary's age is accurate).

Hi Aghadowey

Sorry if i've confused you, Francis Greene apparently went in 1886 aged 33 with his 2 brothers. Mary Walsh b 1883 i'm assuming she went when she was about 14( she was born 1883) so she went about 1897 and got married there that year. The 1911 census for ireland states

Francis Greene aged 40    ( this age is wrong as corresponding grave in Ireland says he's born 1853) Born Ireland
Mary Greene age 28 married 14 years born Ireland
Margreat       age 8                              born America
Mary Catherine aged 7                         born America
Norah               aged 2                         born Co Clare

Therefore i'm assuming Mary and francis married about 1897 they had there 1st child about 1903 and 2nd about 1904, i have no access to 1900 us census, rumour has it they where in New York.

Here's hoping

1900 census is free to search on LDS Pilot site-
http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=collectionDetails;c=1325221

I would still query dates- 14 seems far too young for Mary to be married (and 1st child not born until about 6 years later?)
If Francis' age is incorrect in 1911 census (and gravestones are often wrong) then Mary's age could be also.
