I am researching Mary FARLEY born abt. 1830 in Co. Cavan Ireland. In the 1850s Brooklyn, she married Owen COYLE. Mary and Owen lived on Navy St. in Brooklyn for most of their married life. Mary died Oct. 20, 1884 and is buried in Holy Cross. I am trying to find Mary's parentage and siblings. When her husband died, he did not leave a will and there were problems with the probate. Some of the people involved were Patrick FARLEY and Lucy Farrell of Brooklyn. I believe they are related to her. Also, she and her family were all buried by Peter Farrell. Lucy Farrell was the executrix of Peter Farrell's estate. Also, on the 1860 US Census, there is a Joseph FARLEY age 24 with wife Mary and son Patrick 1 living next to Mary and Owen. Possibly a brother? If anyone can shed some light on this family, please do. Thanks.
