Gorman family
I am researching my great grandmother Bridget Gorman, born 4 March 1875. Her parents were Patrick Gorman and Mary Whelan - they were married 15 Feb 1873. According the certificate I found on irishgenealogy,ie it states they were married in the RC chapel of Doon, in the registrat's district of Cappawhite, union of tipperary in the county of Limerick.
Patrick lists his father as Patrick and Mary lists her father as Timothy, Patrick's residence is listed as Doon, Mary's is listed as Kilymoylar (?). I believe I have found children for this couple as the following:
Mary - 20 Dec 1873
Bridget - 4 March 1875 (my great grandfather)
Patrick - 1 October 1876
Timothy 15 October 1878 -- died 28 November 1878
Timothy 7 October 1879
My great grandmother Bridget came to NYC in I believe late 1890s -- she married John j Walsh - born 2 Oct 1875 at Sruce Hill, Roscrea Tipperary in NYC in Feb 1900. Unfortunately she died in 1916 and my grandfather (who died in 1964) did not talk a lot about his family. He had a tough life growing up since the family was fairly poor .
I would love to find out what happened to her siblings -- I have been trying to do my family tree for many years and am now getting more information on the Gorman family
thank you
