January 2nd 1829, Margaret Quigley was born in Ireland. She would marry Patrick Courtney and they would come to America in 1873. Patrick would die during the voyage but as the Obit reads she and her three children would settle in South Bethlehem, PA.
When I reviewed the DNA matches for Margaret's children I found a name that stood out, Nuss. My brother works for Nuss Printing so I wanted to see if there was a connection. So I worked down the tree to see if they are related. It appears that all the male sons moved West so there is no direct connection chase but still an interesting way to start the new year of family history.
