Edward married Julia PURCELL. Julia (daughter of Joseph PURCELL and Bridget UNKNOWN) was born about 1862 in IA. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Note:
In trying to figure out the parentage of Julia Purcell I have found the following.
The 1870 census in Paris, Howard, IA shows two Julia Purcell's, one a daughter of Michael and Eliza born ca 1867 and one a daughter of Joseph and Bridget born ca 1863. The latter Julia seems to fit the profile of "my" Julia.
The 1860 census lists/enumerates the above families side by side.
Jeremiah Ahern marries Catherine/Kate Purcell, daughter of Michael and Eliza.
I think that Michael and Joseph are probably brothers and that Julia who married Edward is probably the daughter of Joseph. Will have to work on proving this.
