Patrick Richardson married Margaret Coughlan in Patrickswell on January 17, 1830. Witnesses were Jeremiah O'Grady and John Carr. I know Patrick left Ireland and purchased land in Oswego, NY in 1828. Unsure if when he returned to Ireland to marry Margaret. Looking for their parents and siblings. Does anyone have Richardson or Coughlan family from that area? I know Patrick was born cira March 14, 1807 and Margaret was born January 17, 1810. (odd her birthday and marriage is the same date) These birth dates were from census records in New York.
If anyone has access to or can direct me on where to look for my family, any help would be appreciated.
