Thanks for the links! The family was RC. Owen died in 1883 in Detroit, Michigan. I only have a picture of his grave marker, I have never seen it in person. The only thing that is readable is his name, "Loving husband and father" and I was told "born in Co Cork Ireland in the Parish of Dessert" but can't make it out from the picture. His wife and brother's headstone are in the same shape. The burial records have him listed as James O. McCarthy which was really surprising as no one ever called him James.
