Mary Lenehan

Mary Lenehan 1834

Back to List
Place of migration
Migrated to/Born in USA

I believe born in either Cork or Limerick to Daniel Lenihan and Elizabeth (or Mary or Elizabeth Mary or Mary Elizabeth) Corbett but I have not found definitive baptismal record -- only a baptismal record of I believe an older brother Patrick.  Surname spelled many ways -- Lenihan, Linehan, Lenehan, Leneghan, etc.   

Mary's family emigrated to the USA and she married Patrick Joseph Cagney in Brooklyn, NY in 1866. She later moved to Chicago in 1872 and died there in 1913.   

I believe that her mother died young and that her father Daniel remarried Catherine Murphy before emigrating to the USA.  A half-brother, Thomas, was born in Rathkeale (according to his Brooklyn obituary).
