Mary Lyons Houlihan in Miltown Malbay, Clare, Ireland

Surnames: Lyons, Houlihan/Holohan, Hayes, Cunningham
I'm trying to find more information on my 2nd g-grandmother, Mary Lyons Houlihan (b. abt. 1851 in Galway or Clare, and died after 1916). She was married to Patrick Houlihan (b. abt. 1841) and had at least the following four children: Bridget (abt. 1877), Michael Joseph (1879-1964), James J. (1886-1928) and my g-grandfather, Patrick Joseph (1888-1961). According to the 1901 census, the family lived on Chapel Road in Miltown Malbay, Clare. Mary appears alone at the same address in the 1911 census (spelling of surname listed as Holohan).

Mary's children came to the US, some of whom arrived at 415 Willis Avenue, Bronx, NY. While I don't know what happened to Bridget, Michael stayed in Bronx, NY, while James and Patrick lived in Binghamton, NY, working as firefighters. Patrick lived later in life in the Dunmore/Scranton, PA area.

Cousins of these children had the last names of HAYES and CUNNINGHAM, although I don't know exactly how they fit. They had lived at the 415 Willis Avenue address.
