Bartholomew Donovan/daughters Anne Rose and Mary Donovan/ John and Mary Barry/daughters Margaret Elizabeth and Ellen Barry

Cork

I'm searching for information regarding the families of Bartholomew Donovan and John Barry.

Bartholomew Donovan had at least two daughters, Anne Rose Donovan born approx. 1824 and Mary Donovan. 

Anne Rose Donovan went to New Bedford, Massachusetts USA and married Joseph Vera from Pico, Azores; Anne Rose Donovan Vera died in New Bedford in 1878

Mary Donovan married John Barry and they had at least two children, Ellen Barry born approx. 1849 and Margaret Elizabeth Barry born approx. 1851.

I believe that Mary Donovan Barry and John Barry both died before 1860 and their daughters Margaret Elizabeth Barry and Ellen Barry immigrated to New Bedford Massachusetts sometime before 1860.  Margaret Elizabeth Barry lived in New Bedford with Anne Rose Donovan Vera, her mother's sister, in New Bedford Massachusetts.

I would appreciate any information.  Thank you.

I live in New Bedford.  Did Anne and her husband die in New Bedford?  Do you know anything about their descendents?  Do you know where they're buried?  If so, have you ever seen their graves?  If you'd like pictures of their stones or any other info, please send me a message at cjperry56@yahoo.com.  I'd be happy to try to get any info for you that I can.
