 Hello!

My family emigrated from Blennerville to New York City in 1851 aboard the ship Miami. According to family lore, it was their honeymoon trip - and their mother-in-law/aunt joined them. I can't seem to find details about the family that was left behind. Perhaps you have ideas/leads/suggestions. 

Groom: Robert Gage b. ~ 1823 - parents: Robert Gage, Sailor; Mary Oliver

Marriage date: 27 August 1851 - St. Anna's Church, Blennerville, Kerry, Ireland

Bride: Anne Naughten b. ~ 1829 - parents: John Naughten, Cooper, Ellen Oliver

Here's what I wonder:

What could I find about the Oliver sisters, Mary and Ellen. I believe they had a brother, Robert aka Robin who might have come to America with Mary and her son, Robert, and her daughter-in-law/niece, Anne. Where was the Oliver family from? What is the name of their parents?

Where did the Gage family come from? 

What more can I learn about the Naughtens? If Ellen Oliver Naughten stayed in Ireland, what became of her family?

Were all the families actually from Blennerville? How did Robert Gage and Anne Naughten meet?

Many thanks,
Amy
