Bridget Sullivan's history
Posted: Wed May 17, 2023 9:00 am
Has anyone tried to discover Bridget's family background? I know she was born in Allihies, Co. Cork in 1865/6. On accessing the Ancestry site, surprise surprise! There seemed to be hundreds of Bridget Sullivans born those two years. Talk about a needle in a haystack. I was also curious whether or not Bridget returned home, bought a farm, but returned to the US within a year or so. If she did buy a farm, shouldn't there be documents? Maybe Bridget returned to America because there were few young men to marry.
There is a photo of her grave on the Ancestry site, but that doesn't give much information.
If there is someone on this forum who can help I would he grateful.
