I'm helping my husband's research his family history. His grandfather James and grandmother Theresa Maloney left Ireland in 1925. He was born 1904 or 1903. I found that the great grandfather might be Patrick Strapp married to Mary. Just want to be sure I'm on the right track. Thanks.

Maria:
Can you clarify the name of the son of James and Theresa who was born in 1903 or 1904. I still have not found a James Strapp/Theresa Maloney civil marriage index record. I also looked in the 1911 census and the only adult James Strapp was this family. The wife's name was Johanna. http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/pages/1911/Tipperary/Kilsheelan/B…

Thanks he might have been the younger James. Theresa/Therese Moloney and James Joseph Strappe left Ireland in 1925, Theresa would have been about 16 or 17. This is according to the 1930 USA census.

Also I found a James Strappe on the 1911 Ireland census whose parents were Mary Ellen Ryan and Patrick Strappe. According to the US census be was 5 years older than Theresa. Is there any was to confirm I have the correct people? Thanks so much for your help!
