She left Ireland with her husband who came from Brighton Sussex . They had a family of three boys and two girls . Sadly, Mary and her youngest daughter died in London in the early 1900's.

    Welcome to Ireland Reaching Out!

    You may have the record but below is a transcription of the 1862 baptismal record which shows the mother as Rose MacMany. Mary had a number of older siblings and below are the records for Peter in 1857 and Charles in 1854. Looks like there was another Charles in 1852 who probably died young, an Anne in 1846 and a Catherine in 1842. There may have been others.
