  • John Sheridan Ireland 1866 (Mayo, Ireland) (age 34)
  • Delia Sheriden (Conn[o/e]lly) Ireland 1867 (Galway, Ireland) (age 33)
    • I believe that Ellen [Helen] Graney was the mother of Catherine, Mary Ellen, and Bridget, and died some time between 1887 and 1900. John then remarried with Delia. Delia Sheridan is listed as born in Ireland, and Bridget's mother is listed as born in Ireland. Jason Brown 12:46, 1 May 2015 (EDT)
