Bernard Feeney"s Death at Strokestown Workhouse 1864, his children immigration to Youngstown Ohio, USA
Bernard Feeney at the age of 44, died at Strokestown Workhouse March 2, 1864 in a horse and buggy accident according to his wife's Ohio obituary. The Civil Death Records indicate he was servant at the workhouse. Unknown if he lived there or only worked there? Bernard and his wife Bridget (Mchugh or Feeney also) had 7 children known to us as Bernard, Patrick, John, Maria, James, Bridget and Winifred. We believe they were born in Tulsk. We descend from Winifred Feeney. I have records of each of these families, their spouses and the fact that they all settled in Youngstown Ohio, potentially stopping in Pennsylvania. His wife also made it to Ohio. (Born 1829 and died 1992) I believed they came through Canada, chain migration, any immigration leads welcome.
I also believe that Bernard had siblings, a John married to Sarah Conroy, James and Michael . I am interested in knowing if there are any records or ability to pursue Strokestown records for family address and details of his death and burial. Would be a gift to know his siblings as well. Thank you for this opportunity.
