Thank you for your reply. Story is he left Ireland 1870's  to work in USA returned either 1887 or 1888, while he was away his name was removed as the next tenant farmer for his fathers farm, his brother took over the tenancy for the home farm which was in Gallon Glebe Cavan.  His sister Mary arrived in New York 1887 married in 1888, originally thought both Mary Fitzsimons & Mary Smith travelled to USA together but cannot find any record on Ellis site, I have contacted Cavan Library they have checked all marriagesbut no trace. I have no idea where to apply for recordsin USA Mary & Michael Brady lived in Yonkers had  1 son in 1889 John Charles suspect he died in infancy,had twin girls Mary & Kate 1892 James 1896 & Charles 1901.

Thanks for looking I was advised by  Cavan Library that Bernard probably married in USA, they have checked all Ireland records,Mary Smith was from Pullamore which is is very close to Killygarry which is the townland that Bernard rented on his return from USA. I suspect they may have married at St Brigids Killygary which would have been her parish. They had 7 children 5 of which went into the religious life,Mary F should have married in Crosskeys chapel. can't see Mary Smith travelling to USA to return to Cavan. Looks like Catholic records in USA are similar to Ireland. I have found Bernard's fathers birth in Annegeliffe 1826.

Trying to trace marriage for Bernard Fitzsimons- Mary Smith approx 1888, story in family is Bernard worked in USA Brooklyn bridge, unusually he returned Ireland. Mary was from Pullamore
cannot trace any marriage in Eire or USA, his sister Mary married Michael Brady in New york 1888 they lived in Yonkers. Any ideas where to find Catholic marriages in New York?
