Lawrence Redmond and Catherine Daly

I am looking for details on the Lawrence Redmond (abt 1797- ??)and Catherine Daly (abt 1780 - 1872 Maine) family. The family came to the US and was in Eastport/Lubec, Maine at least as early as 1843. Catherine was definitely here but I haven't found records of Lawrence. I have found the naturalization records of some of the children which list 1850's-60's as the dates they entered the US, which in some cases I know are not correct due to the birth of their children in the 1840's in Lubec, Maine.

The children I know of were:

Patrick Redmond (abt 1812 - 1892 Maine)

Miles Redmond (abt 1814 - 1893 Maine) possibly married his wife Mary in Ireland

John Redmond (abt 1818 - 1883 Maine) possibly married his wife Sarah O'Rourke in Ireland

Martin Redmond (abt 1832 - 1903 Maine)

I am directly descended from a Susan Redmond who I believe is related to this Redmond family (since they lived next to each other for around 30 years. Susan would have been born around 1835 I think. I did find a Susy Redmond with parents Larry and Kitty on the rootsireland.ie website and I think this is the family but if anyone can be of more help I would much appreciate it.

Hello, Patrick Redmond was my g'g'grandfather. The records are confusing as there were many Redmonds in Maine. I have a little more detail for the 4 brothers, although I have not been able to pin down the original county for the family as different birth counties are listed for each brother. Patrick was listed as born in Wexford. The name patterns match some Wexford records but not the other brother's death records. Martin was the youngest and married only after his mother died. He left young children when he died in a wagon crash. It is possible that the Lubec Redmonds are cousins. Let me know if you want to share information. I am on FB, although I didn't link this account to FB.

Thank you so much for your post. I've built family trees for the Redmonds on Ancestry.com and gathered as much as I could from Maine, mostly Lubec, Whitneyville and the surrounding areas. I would love to compare information with you. I'm on Facebook as well. Just look for Robert Coldwell in Sachse, Texas.

I have been doing research for a friend, who is related to this family.  I have found Miles and Mary Redmond's marriage in Ireland at Ancestry.com "Marriage rec Ireland, Catholic Parish Register 1655-1915 Ferns Enniscorthy 1821-1841" .  Hope this helps.
