Information about the Rush family from Tuam

GalwayTuam (Galway)

I am looking for information about James and Bridget Healy Rush. James Rush died at the age of 30 in Tuam in 1898. He lived on Sun Street with his wife Bridget Healy Rush and children James, John, Sarah, Mary and Bridget. His daughers immigrated to Cincinnatim Ohio but the sons remained in Ireland. Bridget Healy married a man named Lyons and remained in Ireland where she died in 1947. I would like information about James Rush's parents as well as Bridget Healy Rush Lyons' parents. I would like to learn more about her husband Mr. Lyons and her life after this marriage. I would also like to learn about Bridget's sons who remained in Ireland, one of them remaining in Tuam.

Thank you,

Shauna Adams

Below is the civil marriage index record for the marriage of James and Bridget in 1887. You can get a copy of this record from the General register Office for around 4 euros. Go to this link, print out the form for a copy of a marriage record. Fill out the form and provide the info from the record below including the Volume and page number. A marriage record will provide the names of the fathers of the bride and groom and where the bride and groom were living when married.
