Roscommon Roots
Edward Murray and Sarah Lenehan came separately to New York from the Barony of Frenchpark in County Roscommon.
Sarah came at the age of 18 in April of 1905 on the S.S. Celtic. She traveled with two older cousins, Anne (aged 25) and Kate Kaveny (aged 30). Sarah arrived at Ellis Island with $7 dollars having spent $3 during her ocean transit. (The actual ship manifest is viewable with a free registration at ellisisland.org).
Edward Murray came to the US in 1906. The only Ellis Island record that matches him is for a voyage on the S.S Oceanic which arrived in New York on 18 May 1906.
Edward and Sarah were married on 6 Jun 1909 at St. Peter's Church in Brooklyn.
