Michael Duggan History(1867) in Ireland???

[MontanaQR]

Thank you for all the information and work on this.  I believe aghadowey is on the right track.  Mary, Margaret and Josephine were all sisters of my grandfather, John.  The David Stryker connection is also correct.  We are attempting to contact David and Mary Stryker's grandson (left a message and waiting for a return call).  Hoping he can also shed some light on the subject.  Again thanks for your help.

I have to admit that the Ellis Island records of Catherine Collins (Dublin) Jun. 24Th 1892 & Cath. Collins (Cork) Sept., 02 1866 is intriguing, although she should have been married at that point  But at least with this search we have places

No, Catherine Collins would not have been married in 1892. I posted the marriage details earlier- Michael Duggan married 26 June 1895 Manhattan to Catherine Collins.

I guess what I meant is that the "Cath. Collins" arrived in 1896 and was single. The other "Catherine Collins" arrived in 1892, age is right, but don't recognize the rest of the family and she was married already from Ellis Island records. I'm kind of at a stand still now, until I get Michael's death certificate.......Thank you for your time

Your Catherine Collins came to America (single) and married in N.Y. in 1895.

The one I found in 1892 record was also single and perhaps travelled with a brother (hard to say for sure since relationships aren't listed). The 1892 Dublin Mrs. Catherine Collins is not the one I found earlier.

It might be also worth chasing up the marriage record mentioned earlier, in case it includes any additional details ..

I believe your great grandfather was born in Sheffield and that he was the brother of my grandfather Thomas. They were sons of Thomas Duggan (Tipperary) and Mary McDonnell (Roscommon).

I saw your thread somewhere else too and have replied there as well!

Hope to hear from you!

If  you check replies #15 and #16 you'll see that the Sheffield family are not MontanaQR's ancestors.

OK so. It was all very confused so it couldn't all add up. Thanks!
