County Kerry
It is very likely that Florence and Mary Margaret Sullivan, and their daughter, my great grandmother, Julia Ann, were from Co Kerry.
Although I have found no naturalizion for Flurry, the family had close relatives, the Ahern and Falvey families. Cornelius Ahern is documented as having come from Co Kerry. This information was found on his naturalization papers.
It was the custom for Irish emigrants to gather into neighborhoods of friends and family, all from the same area in Ireland.
It is a fact that they came from either Kerry or Cork, and I suspect Kerry is a more likely choice. The Aherns and Falveys were baptism sponsors and witnesses for my great grandmother's family.
