I am looking for Mary Deering/Dearing;she is listed as born in
Scotland in the 1870 census. She was married to Patrick Mc
Adam, had at least two children, Michael b 1969 and Hannah b abt. 1875 in New Jersey they are listed in 1870 census, in the 1880 census shelisted as married to Edward Baker.
They were Catholic, I found the baptism record for Hannah
in northern New Jersey, near the Delaware border.
does this sound like she could be related to your Deerings?
best wishes,
Linda
