Married Ellen O'Brien 1856-1932, I would also like to trace facts about her . Can anyone help with info. please? I am stuck. Ellens grave (Braham) is in St. Colmans Cathedral, Cloyne. Michael had 2 brothers, Albert Sidney & Hugo. All 3 were stonemasons. Michael may have gone to Beverley, Mass. USA. We know his daughter, Frances, known as Polly, was living at the Beverley Hospital in 1921. She is thought to have been married to a Dr. Higgins. They had 3 children. I can't get any more about them. There is a grave of a Sydney Henry Braham, B 1849 - D 28/8/1913 in the same graveyard but we don't know if he was related. Please, if anyone knows. I have traced info. & have certs. on relatives that came to England, Their sons, Jack & Hugh B 1882 - D 21/11/1968 & his wife, Maud Sargent are also buried in Ellen's grave. Hugh was in the British Army. But I am at a brick wall I don't know what else I can do now?

Heres hoping. Denise
