Hello Lance,
You are a descendant of Bridget Carmody and I am a descendant of her brother Dennis
Carmody. My Grandfather was Gerald Carmody, son of Maurice Carmody, son of Dennis. Maurice
married Margaret Howley (b July 1, 1868 and m Nov 22, 1893), my grandfather's mother,
but she died just after Gerald was born (d Oct 25, 1899). Then Maurice married Elizabeth
Langly. Can it be that you are related to Margaret Howley as well as to Dennis Carmody?
Did Dennis and Bridget have any other siblings? Would you like to know anything more about
the children of Dennis and Nancy Ann, and their children, and so on? Do you know anything
about Nancy Ann's brother John Connally? Nancy Ann is buried with Dennis and some of
their children in Silvercreek Cemetary, Watervliet Michigan. I don't know where her
brother John is buried. Margaret Howley's brother Thomas P. Howley and his family are
also buried there. And also Bridget Catherine Howley, whom I believe is Margaret's
sister.
It would be nice to meet someday at a family reunion. Until then, we can keep in touch by
email. I have your phone number from the
ancestry.com message you posted. Mine is
651-690-1501. Good luck with your genealogy research!
Peace, Pat
