Feeherry Family Information

TipperaryRoscrea (Tipperary)

My 2x grreat grandfather Patrick Feeherry is said to come from Co Tipperary. He arrived in the United States prior to 1850 with two sisters and a brother. Their names were David, Winifred, and Mary Ann. In the 1850 census they were in Upper Providence Pennsylvania, and had had at least one child born in Penn. I found in the Griffith valuation information on a Arthur Feeherry from this parish. This is an uncommon name and I am wondering what you might know about the Feeherry family?
