James MCSHEEHY

                   NOTES:
    As Ellen was married in 1855 in Tippecanoe County, Indiana, it is vaguely possible that she is a younger sister or a cousin of James, though it is more likely that she came to the United States with her uncle Thomas.
                  

                   NAME:
    Maria aka Mary



NOTES:
    Mary's second marriage was witnessed by Henry Jacob McSheehy.
    Mary may have died before 1895, since her mother's obituary says that she had three daughters living at that time, and the other three have been accounted for (Unless Ellen is not really a daughter).
