Does anyone know if the son of Daniel Deneen and Ellen Walsh, Timothy Deneen who was baptized in Inchigeelagh parish on Feb. 23,1817, is the husband of Mary Hogan? If so, do you know if they immigrated to the USA in the 1840s, and if they died enroute or soon after? My great-grandmother, Mary Ann Deneen, was born in Jo Daviess Co., Illinois (USA) in 1846. She and her two brothers, Daniel and Timothy, were raised by the Hogan family. In the 1850 census they were living in Grant Co., Wisconsin, and they were listed as "Hogans," not Deneens. They moved to Douglas Co., Kansas in 1857. Family lore says my great grandmother was from Cork, but no one knows what town or parish. I would appreciate any information verifying (or not) whether Timothy Deneen is the father of Mary Ann Deneen. Thank you very much.
