James Madden and Mary

The death certificate of James Madden, the immigrant to Albany, NY gives his parents as James and Mary.  It is possible this is a mistake but until evidence is found to contradict the information those names will be used.  In fact they make sense as the name James is the most common in the known descendants of our known James. 

The only known child of James and Mary at this point is 

1. James Madden abt 1818 Ire - 1894 NY.  James married Anna Fitzsimmons, most likely in Limerick before 1850/1846.  The following is a list of the descendants of James and Anna, assuming Willie fits at the beginning. Only those who have passed away or were born over 100 years ago are listed by name.
