Catherine A O'Brien

I am looking for information on Catherine A O'Brien , born about 1847 in County Kerry, Ireland. Her parents were Timothy O'Brien ( born around 1820) and Johanna Moriarty.

She had at least 4 siblings, all born in Ireland. She and 3 brothers emmigrated to the United States, living in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Terrence- born around 1846 and died in Lawrence, Masachusetts in 1909, Timothy- born about 1854 and died in Lawrence,Massachusetts in 1906, and Dennis- born about 1859 and died probably in Lawrence,Massachusetts.

Catherine married a Nicholas Young on 07 May 1871 in Lawrence, Massachusetts.

At the time of her death, 8 Feb 1932, in Lawrence, Massachusetts her obituary indicated that her brother Dennis was still alive and living in Lawrence, Massachusetts. A sister, Nan O'Brien Hanlon is listed as living in Ireland.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

But in an off the wall possibility Nan is usually the nickname for Margaret and there are Margarets in Kerry in 1911 Census

and this marriage which may be far too early
