My second great grandmother is Mary Ann Dempsey. Born May 13, 1828, father Patrick Dempsey and mother Mariea Dempsey, dont know the maiden name. Died August 19, 1900 in Foynes, Limerick at age 72. She had one daiughter that I know about, my great grandmother Anne Guerin.born June 21, 1852. Anne married my great grandfather, Michael O'Connell in 1868.The emigrated to the U S in about 1880 and had by some reports 20 children, two of which died in the year they were born and both named Mary. My grandfather Francis (Frank) O'Connell was born in 1889 I think in Iowa. Anne died Dec 4, 1931 in Sious City Iowa.

Hello, do you know if she had any sisters? I have been looking for my 2nd great grandmother. Her name was Alice Dempsey when she married my 2nd grandfather. But I am told that her first name could have actually been Eliza or Elizabeth! I have a birth year of around 1814.
