I have ggggrandparents that came from Ireland . Joseph Hughes who married a Mary A. Dempster . They must have been married between 1847 and 1850 in America because their first son Alexander was born in Penn . in 1850.
Mary Came here to America with her parents from port of Belfast in 1847.Mary was about 24 when she came to America.
Joseph Hughes , I don't know if he came alone from Ireland or with parents.
Joseph and mary died and buried in Victor cemetery in Iowa. Joseph died 1878 age 49
mary died 1873 age 73.
This is all that I have as to ages and that they both came from Ireland.
