Hi,
I believe my mother was related to the Mulherns that you are talking about. Her father was Luke Mulhern. Originally from Fuerty Co. Roscomon, he emigrated to America with his 13 brothers and sisters many of whom settled in Wilmington Delaware. Luke returned to Ireland in the 1930's but the rest of his siblings stayed in America. My mother wrote many letters to one of her American cousins in Wilmington during the 40's until her mother put a stop to the correspondence and so my mother lost touch with her American cousins, something that always filled her with great sadness as she lost her father quite early in her life and they were her last connection with him so if you have any information on these elusive peaople Please let me know. thanks
