Looking for descendants of Daniel Breen M. Johanna Daley.

Children: Patrick, Margaret, Hanna, John

Patrick, emigrated to Saratoga and Glens Falls, NY abt 1870.

Margaret (Maggie) was born about Jan 1858 in Ireland. and emigrated to Saratoga and Glens Falls, NY abt 1884.

Margaret married Edmund Fitzgerald in either Saratoga or Glens Falls, NY.  We don't know the year but their 1st child was born in 1885.

Edmund emigrated from Blackwater area of Ireland in  the 1870s in either Saratoga, NY or Glens Falls, NY. 

Edmund died Oct., 1900 in Glens falls, NY.

His obit lists a brother, William in London and a sister, Mrs. Thomas Murphy in Ireland.

John and Hanna remained in Ireland.

Based on old family letters sent to Margaret Breen Fitzgerald from her sister, Hanna, in Ireland we know the following.

Hanna, remained in Ireland and was married to P.C. Riordan.  Hanna and P.C. Riordan had 3 children (according to her 1928 letter to her sister), 2 girls and 1 boy.  Hanna's daughter, Mary   married a Mr. Connor in 1931.  He died on March,29, 1936 in Cork Mercy Hospital.  Mary and Mr. Connor had 2 children, Mary born abt 1932 and Jim born abt Dec. 1935.

John Breen and his wife had a 25 year daughter, Hanna, who died in Feb., 1927.

We are trying to find more info on Edmund and perhaps the Breen/Riordan families know something.  But any info on the Breen/Riordan families is also appreciated.

Thank You

Cynthia Fitzgerald
