Some genealogical research shows a Mary Gallagher, born about the same period, as a daughter of Honora and Martin Gallagher. Research is ongoing.

The Mary memorialized here, along with her husband, John O'Brien, were in the Philadelphia area when their second son, James, was born about 1833. This is known because his death record shows a date of 31 December 1886, aged 53 at death.

John married Mary Gallagher about 1829, probably in Ireland; because, their first known child, Michael, is recorded as born in Ireland on his death record and certificate of death.

John and Mary both immigrated from Ireland about 1832. Their second child was born in Philadelphia, where they resided for the remainder of their lives.

Their known children are:

Michael 1831-1869; James 1833-1886; Mary 1835-unk; George 1837-unk; John 1839-1904 and Frank 1840-1863.

Her burial record reads:

widowed
buried 4-6-72
Section J Range 3 Lot #33

There are over 8,000 Mary Gallagher's and Mary O'Brien's just here, on findagrave!

Due to the fact that there were hundreds of people named Mary Gallagher and probably thousands named Mary O'Brien and John O'Brien from Ireland; my family's researched data, used here, refers ONLY to my Grandfather John's mother, who is documented as buried here at Cathedral Cemetery.
