 Bridget Rooney, daughter of Michael ""Daddy Mick"" Rooney and Catherine ""Mammy Kitty"; Catharine on gravestone" Caulfield.Born ± 1806 Ireland, died Sep 1879, age approximately 73 years A couple of on line trees show that Bridget had a first husband named Michael Cunniff, b. 1800, and they had a daughter Catherine. Not much corroborating evidence for this, though. One online tree has Bridget being buried in the Ford Cemetery, Lancashire, England, but that doesn't make sense. George and Evie Kukowski said she was born in 1832 and John in 1829 and that they had six children. Nothing more.
