I think the marriage tootsiepie found in granard longford for andrew tougher is my great great grandparents as I got the marriage certificate for their son my grandfather as follows in the US : TUCKER, John Age: 22 years Marriage
Wife: Elizabeth CALLAHAN Age: 19 years
Marriage Date: 19 Jun 1892 Recorded in: Saint
Patricks Pro-Cathedral-Catholic Church, Newark, Essex, New Jersey
Husb's Birthplace: Ireland
Wife's Birthplace: Ireland
Husband previously married
Husband's Father: Andrew TUCKER
Husband's Mother: Ann CASEY
Wife's Father: James CALLAHAN
Wife's Mother: Catherine LEAHY
Source: FHL Number 1398553 Dates: 1895-1895

the question is why would their son john list it as tucker if it was indeed tougher? odd how would one go about finding the grave in granard and death dates for andrew and ann his parents? this is a big mystery also do imiigration records have parents names and place of birth?  and what resources are there in ireland online to research ?

Hello
Anna and Thomas married in NY after they emigrated, I am in the process of locating the marriage certificate. Anna died in 1920 and is buried in Holy Cross cemetery in Brooklyn, NY where I just located them last week ( that is how I found their birth and death dates) they are all buried together.
I will try Ellis Island next to locate immigration records

Ireland / Re: Anna Clarke McDermott Searching for my great grandmother

Hello thanks for the leads- Anna died in Brooklyln, NY in 1920. She emigrated in 1895 @ 13 to work as a domestic and had 2 brothers Thomas and John.  John Clarke B 1874 D 1907 , and Thomas Clarke B 1866 ( Ireland ) D 1946 /
THey are such common names it seems impossible to fnd them - the only hope is that anna, thomas and john were in the same family.
