McGivney/Sheridan Michigan-Ireland-New Orleans-NY
I am researching the McGivney family of Oceola township, Livingston County, Michigan.John McGivney and Mary Sheridan McGivney were born in Ireland and had two sons there.Their son John was born in 1785, came to NY in 1810, lived for some time in New Orleans, and finally came north to Oceola where all of his children were born.His wife, whom he married in Ireland, was Margaret Conklin.John died in 1870.John and Margaret had 10 children.
An 1880 History of Livingston County reports that Mary Sheridan McGivney was a cousin of Gen. Philip Sheridan.Philip Sheridan's father was John Sheridan.Who were John Sheridan's brothers?
Any help would be appreciated.
