In 1880 when my great grandfather John J. Sheehan was 20 he years emigrated from Ireland to Boston. Upon arriving in America John came across signage stating "No Dogs, No Blacks & No Irish". Not feeling welcomed in Boston he chose instead to make his way to Philadelphia. In 1887 he married Nora (Hanora) Ryan -also from Ireland- had 2 girls & 6 sons. I am having a difficult time finding information regarding John's exact area of birth.

My great grandparents emigrated to upstate NY in the late 1890s. My grandmother, Catherine Sheehan, was born in Albany circa 1906 and married Leo Walsh, another first generation Irish American in the 1930s.

I am researching my family and found that my grandfather was previously married to an Ann Sheehan. Ann's parents I believe were Peter Sheehan and Elizabeth Daly from Mullingar. I believe Ann was born 8/20/1872 in Mullingar. My grandfather Patrick married Ann in NYCon 2/2/1896. I can't find any info about Ann's death. Any help would be appreciated.
