Katherine Fitzgerald married a Michael Gooley in Chicago, IL. 

On their children's birth certificate they have written down that they were born in Waterford County in Ireland.  This is all I have to go on.  Michael Gooley's age is stated at being 31 in 1881.  This would make his birth year around 1850.   Katherine nee Fitzgerald Gooley is listed at being 29 years old.  She would have been born around 1851.  When they settled in Chicago and were married, Michael Gooley was a blacksmith.
