In 1884 Mary married John McDermott (25 years old who was also from Ireland)in Jersey City, NJ.
They settled in Jersey City, NJ and had five children: Edward, Mary "Mamie", John, Anna, and Catherine "Katie".
When Mary was 32 years old, her husband died in 1896 of Pneumonia just 1 year after their last daughter was born.
Mary supported her family by working as a laborer and paper maker. To help, each of the children went to work at about age 13.
Mary was living with her daughter when she died at age 54 when her dress caught fire from coal in a stove.
Mary is my husband George Vallevieni's great grandmother.
