My 2x great grandmother was Mary Ann Mcsorley she was baptized in St Patricks pro Cathedral in Newark New Jersey in 1860. ( she also had a brother names James born in 1863 but don't have much about him) Her parents were James McSorley ( civil war vet NJ 33) and Mary Jane Maguire. James was born in Ireland ( county unknown but family lore has it in Meath). James and Mary Jane were married in St Patricks Pro Cathedral in Newark in 1855. Their wedding certificate has Michael and Sarah McMackin as his parents. Going through a few other records of St Patricks I have found a few other siblings that have the same parents. James (b 1831) Thomas (1833) Mary (1836) and Ann (1843). <br /><br />Just trying to connect our Newark NJ Mcsorleys. <br /><br />Steve Stickel<br />sjstick@cox.netMr. Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17983849380440832763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6368126928031183292.post-66671933396000575972014-04-21T22:03:51.818-05:002014-04-21T22:03:51.818-05:00The mother is always the best, keep the mother'...The mother is always the best, keep the mother's affection and love you every day.friv 4http://www.friv4go.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6368126928031183292.post-33236632079626339082013-12-15T15:22:01.176-06:002013-12-15T15:22:01.176-06:00Think this diary was written by Ratoath man who be...Think this diary was written by Ratoath man who before he died gave it to Parish Priest of Ratoath.

My great grandmother came to America in 1906, with my grandmother(about 3 yrs. old) and my aunt(a babe in arms). My grandmother said that her parents never spoke much about their life back in Lithuania.Vague mention about where the trio came into the US. It was suggested that they may have come by way of Baltimore? The last name was Americanized to Yocas. My great grandfather, Ludwig, was born in "Telszea" and great grandmother, Amelia, was born on May 12, 1879. Her maiden name was "Kerzuiskus". An uncle had gone to Lituania, but found that any records were destroyed in the war...WW1, I guess.

The story is that James Whelan also went to Chicago and came back to Ireland. However we have no documentary proof of this. James Whelan was married twice. He had one daughter namely, Annie Whelan, who was born in Waterford, Ireland in 1887. Her mother, Kate, died in 1894 and James married my wife's grandmother shortly after Kate's death. James was brought up by her mother's parents. James and his new wife moved to Dublin where they had 3 children including my wife's mother. Annie left Ireland for Chicago probably after the first world war when she was in her early 20s and joined up with her fathers siblings. There were at least 6 of them living there. Annie married Martin Higgins, originally from Belfast, in 1920. They had 4 children including one daughter, Mary, who is still alive and aged 90. We have recently travelled to Chicago and met Mary for the first time. We did not know of her existence until recently even though she is my wife's half first cousin. She is being looked after by her adopted son. Unfortunately Mary has lost contact with the other members of her Whelan family in Chicago. From our researches there are not many of the family left and very few, if any males. I can send you full details of the records we hold of these Whelans of Chicago, if you wish.

My Mom's maiden name was Bukas and nobody in the family seems to know how the longer form was spelled. All they can tell me is that it was something that sounds like Bukavaskas. I have found 3 censuses that list them, their ship passenger manifest & my Great grandfather's Naturalization papers & every one of them has a different spelling. So I am wondering if maybe it might be Bukavicius. Cheers, Joanqtzladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10234461548704349507noreply@blogger.com
