Researching my ancestors from Dublin. Any help would be greatly appreciated. They left Ireland 1884-1887 for the USA.
My grand father was: John Joseph McNally
Born: March 18, 1868 Ireland
Died: June 25, 1940 in Mt. Pleasant, Westchester, New York, USA
John's death certificate shows, Place of Brith - Dublin, Ireland
His father was: James McNally
Born abt. 1844 Ireland
Died abt 1915 New York, USA
His mother was: Margaret O'Brien
Born abt 1845 Ireland
Died 1887-1900 New York, USA
Arrival in the US very possibly April 25, 1885 in New York City on the ship Servia. Passanger list shows a James McNally and directly under him Maggie O'Brien. Can not locate John McNally on that ship or any other although US census says John arrived in 1887. Ship sailed from Liverpool and Queenstown. I am not very confident that I have the correct imigration arrival time of 1885.
I will update with more information.
