I need the names and locations of the parents of the following Mary Archer. I have taken info off my private Ancestry Tree. Private because there is some guessing and much of the info is collected censuses and death notices, death records etc. Best bet for information might be a nice article in a small newspaper although those articles were usually on the husbands in the papers I am thinking of. Also marriage records and death records church and governmental could be of help.

Mary Archer1835 b Ireland or (1 source says Quebec but I think that is wrong) d before 1870 census probably in Menomonee, Waukesha, Wisconsin.

Mary Archer’s husband was:
John Cusack: Birth abt 1827 Ireland Death after 1880 census. In 1870 living Chicago with daughter Nellie Norkett wife of John R. Norkett. There is a possibility that the couple married in Milwaukee, Milwaukee, WI. or in the Fond du Lac Co. WI area. But I will first check St, James RCC, Menomonee Falls then Lannon.

Their children were all born WI probably all born Menomonee now Menomonee Falls, Waukesha, WI.

[Would think baptismal records would be at St. James RCC. If so, think could be found at www.familysearch.org. Mary Archer Cusack died before 1870. I would expect her to be listed as buried at St. James. Three other Cusacks are.]

Mary Ellen "Nellie" Cusack1854 – 1937 married John R. Norkett in Chicago area. IL death record says born Menomonee Falls. Died Chicago.

Edward Cusack b abt 1856 – 1921

Margaret Cusack b abt. 1857 –

John Cusack b abt.1860 –

Patrick Cusack b abt. 1860 – think Ptrk is the following man

Henry P. Cusack b 1861 – 1930 married to Mary Murphy. IL death record says born Menomonee Falls. Died Chicago.

Daniel Cusack b abt. 1867 –

Catharine "Kate" Cusack b. abt 1869 –

Needless to say I would like to be contacted by anyone who knows anything about any members of this family.

The late daughter of Nellie Cusack Norkett knew she and I were cousins as did my late aunt, Mary Gertrude Quirk. I think it is thru the Archers who were related to the Quirks thru Mary Quirk who in abt 1820 married David Lonergan in Co. Tipperary, Ireland. Their daughter Ellen married Patrick Henry Archer in Ireland. As a widow Ellen Lonergan Archer and her children immigrated to Wisconsin where her Lonergan and Quirk families were settled.Some censuses have misspelled Cusack as Cusick or Kusick. Other parts of the family used Cusick. I would expect the St. James Church records to start with a “C” and probably spell the name Cusack.
