Arthur Doherty & Anne Kearney (Carney) - Greencastle
« on: Friday 27 March 09 00:20 GMT (UK) »
Looking for info re:  Arthur Doherty married Anne Kearney (Carney).  Found LDS records for children: Mary Anne b 22 Sep 1872 Fermanagh;  Patrick b 28 Feb 1874;  Neil b 4 Jul 1871 (to Anne Carney); Cornelius b 30 Jul 1870 also to Anne Carney.
Patrick came to NYC prior to 1906 and lived on the East Side. 
Arthur another child of Arthur and Anne came to NYC in 1906 and again in 1911 (passenger lists refer to his brother Patrick on E 57 and E 54 Sts).  Can't find Patrick in any census or Military or Death records.  Arthur married Teresa McGilloway, liven in NYC for a while and then Corona, Queens - they had 8 kids; he died in 1964.  Another child of Arthur and Anne Kearney was Rose (my grandmother) came to NY in 1893, married Michael Doherty (Dougherty in the US) and settled in Brooklyn having 11 children.  Rose died in 1941.
Looking for marriage date for Arthur and Anne as well as birth and death dates in Ireland.  Also the names of their parents and if there were any other children.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

I was at a dead end for so long.....I will fax the application for the Marriage Certificate

I received the Marriage Record today and will post the info in case it might contain a germ of info that might help someone else in their search especially since there were over 200 hits on this topic.  Also attaching a jpeg.
