Mary Costigan and Daniel Healy are my 3rd Great Grandparents.  their Daughter Mary Healy married John Edwards and their first child George was born in New York (probably Brooklyn) in 1845.  They moved to Moriah< New York Area to work in the Iron Mines there.  Any info relating to this family would be highly appreciated.

    I could not find a baptismal record for their daughter Mary. I wasn't clear from your post whether Daniel and Mary Healy emigrated to NY or only their daughter. If the couple did, then maybe Mary was born in the US, not Ireland.

  • Carolyn and Patricia.  Thank you for your research.  Thomas Healy, Mary's brother appears to be the first born of Daniel and Mary.  Thomas was a witness to the Baptism of Francis Healy, his nephew by Mary Healy and John Edwards in Brooklyn, NY.  I have never seen any evidence that Daniel and Mary every emigrated from Ireland. I haven't located where Mary Healy's husband, John Edwards, comes from in Ireland.

  • Streetso,

    I saw your Ancestry tree....are you certain that Thomas and Mary Healy are siblings? They could be cousins or another relation as well. The baptism record for Francis doesn't indicate a relationship. The baptism records for the RC parish of Templemore began in 1807, but I did not find Mary nor any other children of Daniel Healy and Mary Costigan on Roots Ireland or Ancestry. 

    Regards,
