My question is about:  Bessie Sammon's maiden name.

She was born in Newport, Mayo, Ireland about 1804 and died, Newport, Mayo February 23, 1890.  She married Michael Sammon, 1809-1884 about 1835 in Newport, Mayo.   Her maiden name appeared on her daughter Bridget Sammon Coleman's death certificate as (because of poor handwriting) looks like Herako.  Cannot find any name close to this.  Any clues appreciated.
