Margaret was born in Athy in or around 1884/1855. She was married in London in 1907 .Her father was James ( a master hairdresser ) and she had a brother called Patrick James or James Patrick. I am trying to trace the name of her mother and the birth place of her father,mother and brother. Hope you can help.

Dear ColCaf
Thank you for this very helpful and interesting response which I have only this morning discovered. I now know how the messaging system works.....!
I wonder if you can help me to :-
1 trace the births,marriage and deaths of the parents of Maggie and her siblings
2 discover when James or Patrick emigrated to the USA. His wedding certificates states that he was a resident of New York.
Hope you can help.
With my very best wishes for Christmas and 2016
Colin

P S Have you tried Family Search or Ellis Island Passneger Lists for James & Patrick?
Perhaps you could scroll through the lists for Patrick & James to find a common arrival date.
