Mahers of Barnaboy (Corrected Post)

According to family sources in Ireland, my ancestor William Maher was from Barnaboy in the civil parish of Kyle and county of Laios.

My William was born around 1855-1862, emigrated to the US around 1884, married Margaret Cosgrove in New York in 1892 and died in New Jersey in 1907.

One Maher family in Barnaboy at the time of William's birth was that of William Maher (b. c. 1810) and wife Anne Tracy (c. b. 1815), whom he married in 1841 in Bourney. The house where the family lived is still standing. (See photo.) I believe I am descended from this family.

William and Anne had Mary (likely, married Michael Creary), Ellen (b. c. 1846, married Edward Stanley), Michael (b. c. 1849, married Mary Kirwan), Bridget (bapt 1849, married Kyran Maher), Anne (b. c. 1851, married John Hogan), William (bapt. 1855, possibly mine) and Cornelius (bapt. 1858). They may also have had sons named Martin and Joseph. After William (Sr.) died in 1872, occupancy of the house in Barnaboy passed to his widow, Anne, and then to their son, Michael, when Anne died in 1883.

There were other Maher families in Barnaboy around the same time. An Edward Maher (b. c. 1825) married Margaret Delany. They later moved to Roscrea and then Liverpool. A Michael Maher (b. c. 1820?) married Mary Hogan. I believe Edward and Michael were brothers of William (Sr.).

I am trying to confirm that I am connected to this family and make contact with other relatives. My family has given a DNA sample, so potential relatives can be confirmed that way. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thank you!
