>>In the 1920 Census of New York/Manhatten, a Christopher Counihan (from Ireland) can be seen living with his sisters Nora and Sarah. By the 1930 Census, Christopher has re-married and has a daughter Emily.
Can anyone confirm whether this is the same Christopher Counihan (son of Richard), who gave his address as Clare Street at the time of his marriage in Limerick?<<
This Christopher is Christopher Eugene Counihan, son of Cornelius and Sarah Alice McCARTHY COUNIHAN b. Jan 13, 1883 Tralee, Co. Kerry, Ireland; address is BOOHERSLIA [sic]; sponsors Simon CONNOR and Catherine FITZGERALD; one of 13-16 children of Cornelius and Sarah.In Griffith's (1852) his address is Connor's Lane, Tralee. I am descended from his aunt, sister to Cornelius, Mary J. Counihan who married James KILEY and emigrated first to Connecticut and then to NYC. I have not come across a Richard Counihan in my research.
