Title: Bridget Delahunty
Post by: MistyEchoes100 on Sunday 27 July 25 16:02 BST (UK)
Hi,

I am just seeking some info on Bridget Delahunty. Anything. She was born around 1848 in County Waterford. I think she passed in 1927 but I am not sure. I believe she was married to Michael Corcoran and they had a son called James born in 1888 who died in 1945. Now, I could be wrong but also want to make sure I am on the right track. I believe then James had a son called John born around 1918. I believe they all lived in Tramore in County Waterford.

Any help is greatly appreciated!  :) Just looking to find out as much about her line as possible.

Thank you all for the info!  :)

Any ideas for who John Corcoran might have married? As in the father of Michael.
