Michael Shaughnessy (1816-1885) & Ann (1818-pre1880) Children: John, William, Mary.  Michael may have immigrated 16 Dec 1847, with possibly a brother Robert.  I found the following immigration for Ann - Shaughnessy, Ann, (31), Ireland, Liverpool - ship Silas Greenman, date 5 Jun 1850.  The 1850 census was taken 23 July.  The 1860 census shows Michael Oshanghnepey, (50), blind and son John, (14), Utica NY.  Unknown where Ann and Mary are.  1870 census has Michell Oshannasey, blind, (60) Ireland, Ann (50) Ireland, John (24) Ireland, Mary (22) Ireland, Michell (2) b. NY.

 

Ann died prior to 1880.  1880 census has Michael Shaughnessy (60) which his age should be 70, father-in-law, daughter Mary Brady (35) m. John Brady (40) Ireland, living at 30 Exchange St., Binghamton, NY.  Children: Julia (5) NY, Edward (4) NY, Mary (2) NY and John (8 mos) NY.
