I am searching for my husbands Great Grandmother Mary Murphy, born 21May1830. She would never talk about Ireland but said she came from Cork County, Ireland and moved to Clinton, Iowa, USA then in March 1886 they moved to Goodland, Kansas, USA. She was married to John Sullivan also from Ireland.

There are over 40 Mary Murphy baptismal records in Co. Cork in the year 1830. We also don't know if her year and date of birth are correct because many immigrants changed their date of birth in the new country. There are a few Mary Murphy/John Sullivan marriages. Do you know if they were married in Ireland or America?

Thank you for your fast reply. We don't know anything so I am not very helpful. My mother in law is 93 years old and says they never talked about personal things. I guess this is the end of this search. We have submitted dna on 23 and me and ancestry.

Maybe you will have some close DNA matches with Murphy/Sullivan connections which might help you with your search.
