Searching for 2 sisters

[ballydw]

Ellen O Brien born 16th April 1892 & Johana/Hannah/Annie O Brien born c 1890 Glencullen Mocollop Co Waterford. On 1901 Ireland Census Ellen is 8 & Hannah is 10. Parents Michael O Brien & Mary Myles. They do not appear on 1911 Ireland census. I do know they both immigrated to USA location not known. Also from family speculation one of the sisters may have married a Sullivan. Thank you for any information.

There is an Annie O'Brien with the right parents, born Ireland, and close to the right age who married a John J. O'Sullivan in Boston.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:Q28J-GJHN

There is a Nellie O'Brien with the right parents who also married in Massachusetts.  Maybe Ellen = Nellie?  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QLGR-K4Z6

Did they have a sister Katherine?  There is another Massachusetts marriage for a Katherine O'Brien with the same parents.  https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QP8C-H99F

There is a Social Security application for Ellen Rafferty, born 12 Apr 1893 in Ballyduff, WA, UK to Michael OBrien & Mary Myles.  She made a claim (possibly for retirement benefits) on 8 Jun 1959 and died 21 Apr 1990.  She also had been listed as Nellie Rafferty. 

Not sure if she's the right person.  Wouldn't be the first Irish immigrant I saw with varying birth dates, but I'm not sure if the place of birth fits.  If that's her, a death notice is here - https://www.newspapers.com/clip/93348806/obituary-for-ellen/
