Looking for Phillip and Mary Dwyer

TipperaryTipperary (Tipperary)

Phillip (1802 - 1880)and Mary (1807 - 1877) arrived in the USA Dec 28 1848. They had their 7 children with them. We are unable to find any information prior to 1848, so we know nothing of the Irish roots. Family history says Mary (maiden name Dwyer or O'Dwyer) married James Gleeson (1805? - 1830?) 1st; on his death in she married Phillip in 1831 (maybe 2 Feb). Would like any history available, but especially their parents names and dates of birth/death.

Hi ref your post. Maybe you could list the names of the couples 7 children & birth years.
www.nationalarchives.ie the Tithe Applotment records for Tipperary list 12 name of Philip Dwyer in different parishes.
www.rootsireland.ie has Baptism & Marriage records for Tipperary .
Do you have their immigration record to USA?

Hi!  I am also from this line!  Michael was my 2x great-grandfather.  I am also interested in finding out more information about family from this line, especially siblings and parents of Philip and Mary.  If DNA is correct, some of them went to Australia, which I know nothing of that side.

Best regards,

Sandra
