My Great Grandmother came to the USA as a young girl maybe 16 years old. She was born April 15, 1878 in I believe Dingle, County Kerry. Her name was Marie(Minnie) Devine, her father was Michael Devine and mother was Bridget Kennedy Devine. I also know that after she married her brother Maurice lived with them. If anyone has any information about her I would love to know it.
