Looking for my great great great grandparents grave in Ireland. I do not know their names.
Michael Fahey is their son and married to Hannorah. Sailed to the USA with their two small sons sometime before 1855. Their third son Joseph was born in the US on Oct 18 1855 in Pittsburgh PA.
Diane,
Record found on Ancestry. I am not sure what happened to their other two sons. Joseph was born in Philadelphia. Family moved to Iowa.

Diane,
Without your great great great grandparent's names, where they were living, and when they died it would be difficult to search for a gravesite. Michael's death certificate might provide their names. You should contact the State of Iowa.

Thank you so much for help!

Me again…I might have found the correct names of Michael Fahey’s parents.
I found a Patt Fahy married to Catharine Kearny.
and Michael (spelled Michl) was baptized September 27, 1819.
Could this be the parents of my great great grandfather Michael?
Is there church records of this family?
