Wow! I was absolutely thrilled to read your response. Your father and my great grandmother were half siblings - so, I suppose we are cousins of a sort. I have never been able to find what happened to Esther or where she might be buried. Mary Margaret (my great grandmother) married John Maloney in Chicopee, MA in1896.
Their daughter, Gertrude, married Clodio Bolduc and they lived in Woonsocket, RI. I was just checking Molloys in Maine yesterday! I have an autograph book of sorts that belonged to my grandmother. In it, she has jotted some addresses in Rockland - for Alice Molloy and Mary Molloy Athearn. I thought I might have some luck in that direction and there you are! I am going to be in Newfoundland in early August. If there is anything you would like me to check on or snap a photo of, I would be happy to do so if possible.
I would love to find out more about our ancestors - I don't even know if they were farmers or fishermen...
What brought them to Newfoundland and when. Please keep in touch. I look forward to hearing from you!
Very sincerely,
Your cousin,
