    Dear Patti , Unhappily this is not her. I have already used Family Search and cannot find her. I am new at this and 

    looked at the ships that came into New York Harbor but they only show stating in 1846. She was born from what I have seen in 1831 in

    IRELAND and

    married at the age of 17 Patrick Welch ( Welsh,Walsh ) in NYC in 1848 St Columba Church in Manhatten . A

    witness to her marriage was her sister BRIDGET CORRIGAN. I have a copy of her obituary in the Brooklyn

    newspaper calledTHE BROOKLYN EAGLE . She died in Brookly on April 12th 1897. A lot of my family lived

    in HYDE PARK ,Massachusettes. Her son JOHN J WELCH had a horse stable for zabout 25 years in Hyde Park 

    and came to Brookly,NYC in 1889/1890 . My father was born in Brooklyn in 1899 and myself in 1945.

    Thanks for your quick answer and trying to help me out. She is buried in Holy Cross Cementary in Brooklyn,NYC.

    THANKS AGAIN

    Richard P. Welch
