I'm staying in Limerick at the moment and looking for family. My grandmother Bridget Hughes was born in Armaugh in 1892, and arrived i Ellis Island with her aunt, Catherine Hughes in 1906. Catherine was 30 yrs 10 months.
Joanna Kivlin was born in Warpole, Mass, Jan 6, 1861. Both her parents were born in Ireland.
John Draybwas born in Ireland around 1830. His wife Bridget ( no maiden name ) was born in Ireland in 1835. They married in the US.
Help please??

Welcome to ireland Reaching Out!
I only located one 1892 civil birth record for a Bridget Hughes in the Armagh registration district. You have to sign-in to see the record which is not very clear. This Bridget was born on November 2, 1892 on Mill Street in Armagh town. Father was Francis and mother Mary with a maiden name which appears to be Mercer. Do you have any names for Bridget's parents?

Can't help with the Kivlins without out more info.
Roots Ireland has a number of baptismal records for a John Dray/Drea/Drew around 1830. Do you have his parents names. There are John Dray/Drea records in 1826, 1828, 1831 and 1834 plus eleven John Drew records.

There's conflicting information of course. Seems on a SS application, she listed her parents as
Mary ( Carey ) Hughes and her father as Edward Hughes
Cranlome, Aghnahoe, County Tyrone. Northern Irelandm
There is some indication that she was born after 1892, since ther was question as to whether she would be allowed to travel if she was younger than 19 yrs
John Dray, b ~1830. Ballyhale
Thank you for your help!!'''
Sincerely

Below are the likely civil birth record and the church baptismal record. Mother's name Quinn? Note the notes on the baptismal records about two marriages preumably for Bridget?
