Hi, I'm looking for information on Mary Connelly born Aug. 1857 in Ballyhaunis, Mayo. Her mother's name was Bridget Coakely (not sure if I spelled that right), her father's name was I think Luke Connelly and Mary had a sister named Kate (born May 1850(?) in Ballyhaunis, Mayo.) as well as other siblings who's names might have been Bridget and Luke. Mary & Kate left Ireland about 1871 and moved to Chicago, Illinois and after the Chicago fire they moved to Springfield, Illinois. Mary married a man named William Henry Lott in Springfield, Illinois in 1882.
I have been trying to find information for years but have not had much luck, I guess there are many Mary Connelly's that lived in Ballyhaunis. If anyone can help me I would be so thankful.
