Could she have come back to Ireland?

Seems to be a COI record for this Mary Jane, her father is John but he's a Cooper, so looks like a girl of the same name.

Another one in Leitrim this time.

Had a look on RootsIreland since finding that marriage and it appeared to be there but fathers and mothers names not happening.

How can there be so many Mary Jane Siberrys in Ireland and I could only find one in USA but she wasn't the right one!!!

I don't think that marriage could be her as she would have only been 10 at the time - we found that she travelled to America when she was 16, she could have come back but it would have been after my great grandmother moved to Glasgow as there is almost no infomation on her other than her name in my family :/

I believe also that John Siberry, Mary Jane's father was a farmer so again I'm sure if that record isn't for her.
The fathers occupation, date and that the marriage was in Dublin shows me thats not the right person, since shes a southern girl I doubt they would have gone to the north to be married.

Mary Jane seems to be a tricky person to find any information about.

The record for 1899 could be for her... it would have meant though that she went to america then 4 years later came back to Ireland.

Think the sun was getting to my brain with the first one got my dates muddled, but that second one doesn't look good either as the father doesn't appear to be John, there are just so many Siberry's around Leitrim with the same names and probably all related it hard to separate them out.
