Could not find the name Delahanty/Delehanty under that spelling. In
addition, I only have access to collections through 1899. The following
I am forwarding because many times recorded surnames in Storey County
are misspelled, from the death certificate to the obituary in the
newspaper. It's a good chance Delahanty/Delehanty, spelled like it
sounded could translate to Delaney, Delanty, or Delany.

The surname Murphy is abundant in Storey County, I could not find a
listing for a Maggie Murphy. Maggie could be an alternate for Mary or
Margaret.
