I recently just discovered that Mary was a passenger. I am the great granddaughter of A Mary McGovern, however due to my grandfather being an orphan (left with the name McGovern and his mother's name, Mary) at a Catholic orphanage that later burnt to the ground along with records. Is there any possibility before Mary left for Ireland in 1920 that she could have given birth to a boy that she gave up in New York? I would appreciate any information you have - it'd be great to tie up many loose ends on my father's side. - Meghan

Michael and Maggie McGovern lived in Carrikallen Cavan Laurah Parish and had daughters Mary McGovern , Annie, Kate, Margaret and Bridget . They were a part of the Carrikallen Creamery on Mountain Lodge Rd. Mary left for New York and worked as a private teacher around the time of the italic. Michael McGoverns brother was I believe James.
