James Foy and Mary Quinn
« on: Tuesday 16 April 19 18:39 BST (UK) »
Mary Quinn my great grandaunt was born in 1872 in County Donegal and in 1896 married James Foy also from County Donegal in Manhattan. They settled in Cliffside Park, Bergen, New Jersey. James died in 1921. They had a large family and St John The Baptist was there church. Mary was still resident there in 1940. Subsequent generations have lived in Bergen County. She had a sister Anne who also went to America of which I have no information.
It would be great to hear from any connections.

I would like to know when Mary died and would be grateful for such a lookup.
