Having a copy of the actual R.C. church record for the marriage of William Hickey and Bridget Minogue is a good start to proving that Thady and Mary were Bridget's parents. On February 20, 1882, William Hickey (age 27) married Bridget Minogue (age 21). They were married in the RC Chapel of Cappuduffs in the district of Scariff, County Galway, Ireland. Below is the record:
Plainly seen on this document is Bridget Minogue's father's name of Thady Minogue. I must admit that there aren't a whole lot of Thaddeus Minogue's found in this area of Ireland. In fact, I only found one on the Griffith Valuation.
I believe that I may not have to "leap" too much with these documents but my research appears to be far from over.
