Catherine (Kate) M. Barry was born in 1857 in either Ireland or Philadelphia PA. She married Martin Connelly in 1875 and died in 1900 in Philadelphia. Trying to find information about her parents/siblings. Thank you.

Hi,
I have checked www.findmypast.ie for a marriage of Catherine Barry and Martin Connelly in 1875, but no result.
Connelly is quite a common surname in the State.
If you get a copy of their marriage record and Catherine's death record, it should show their parents names.
The 1880 Federal census should show where she was born.
Regards,
McCoy

That's been the challenge...we are a bit stymied right now with the records...originally we thought Catherine had been born in Ireland and emigrated here...now it looks like she was born here. We'll keep searching!!! Thanks for the ideas.
