According to my great grandmother Lily Rinearson, Bridget Tully was her mother in law. Bridget was taken into a Donohue family after immigrating to the US from Kilsker,Co Meath, Ireland. Bridget was born in 1842. She later married Jacob Rinearson in Louisa Co Iowa in 1863. They had 4 children:
Isaac,Dennis C, Anna and Jacob Oakley Rinearson. The last son, Jacob, was my great grandfather. The family would later move to Brown Co KS where Jacob Sr and Bridget died. I found their headstones in a cemetery there.
Currently, I'm trying to verify the name is correct and who her parents and other siblings were in Ireland. I don't know if she came over by herself or with family. My hopes are to some day visit Kilsker, Co Meath, Ireland. I've looked it up on an Irish map. It is a very small village just out side Dublin.
If any of this sounds familiar, I would like to hear from you. I had done research on this line and lost some of my paper records due to water damage. I'm now trying to redocument and keep better notes.
