Looking for information on Cordelia Currier (she was known as Delia), born in or about September 1851 in Vermont (have no further information about her place of birth, but I believe from Census documents that both of her parents were also born in Vermont.) In around 1882, she married Daniel P. Shea, b. Jun 1848 in Ireland; they resided in Lowell, MA. Delia Currier Shea (or Shay as the family spelled the name in more recent years) may have been married previously, as the 1910 census indicates a step-daughter named Maud Shannon living with the family (although since Ms. Shannon is listed as married, I do not know what her maiden name was and therefore what Delia Currier's first husband's surname was.) She died 20 Jan 1924 in Lowell and is buried there. From census documents, I have gathered that she had 12 children, of which around 6 survived into adulthood. These include James H Shay born abt Mar 1883; Daniel Francis Shay, born 10 Dec 1887; Margaret or Maggie Shay Couillard, born May 1890, and Mary Shay McNeil, plus Maud Shannon, born Apr 1878.
I am looking for any information about where she was born, who her parents and siblings were, etc.. I have some further information about her descendants that I would be very happy to share.
Many thanks!
