I'm looking for information on the Peter & Bridget Begley/Bagley family. Peter b 1838 in Ireland, d 1912 in Atchison, KS. Bridget b 1843 in Ireland, d 1925 in Atchison KS. The family was first in Easton Twp, Leavenworth and there through the 1910 federal census. Peter & Bridget probably moved from Leavenworth to Atchison prior to Peter's death in 1912 as both Peter & Bridget are buried in St. Patrick's cemetery in Atchison.

Children of Peter & Bridget, probably born in Leavenworth:

Michael, b 1868
Rosa, b 1869
Thomas, b ? 1870
Bridget, b 1872
John, b ? 1873
Margaret or Mary, b 1874
Peter, b 1875
Celia, b 1876
Wynia/Winnie, b 1878
Ellen, b 1879
James, b 1882
Catherine, b 1883 (married Malachy Owens)
Annie, born 1884
Eddie, b 1888

I have no information on any of these children as to marriages or deaths. Approximate years of birth calculated from census records.

Peter had a brother, Michael, who is listed with Peter's family in census records until Michael's marriage to Rosa. From census records, children I have for Michael & Rosa are James b abt 1886, John b abt 1889, Leo b abt 1890, and Michael L b 1895. When Peter & Bridget moved to Atchison, Michael & Rosa may have also moved.

Any assistance with this family will be greatly appreciated.
